You have accessJournal of UrologyProstate Cancer: Detection p=0.02) on multivariable analysis. Compared to white patients, black patients also had lower odds ratio for genetic testing (OR: 0.09; p=0.03). There were no differences in using genomic testing for surgery versus radiation therapy (OR 1.76; p=0.36). CONCLUSIONS: Over the last decade, the use of genomic testing at the time surgery or radiation therapy for localized prostate cancer remains low and underutilized. Older and black patients were far less likely to receive genetic testing at the time of primary therapy to help inform treatment decisions. Further study is needed to analyze genomic testing use and its role in clinical decision making as it pertains to prostate cancer.
