Key Points

  • The aim is to provide an update on the molecular pathology relevant to prostate cancer for surgical pathologists.
  • Review of molecular classification and driver genes in prostate cancer
  • Discussion of somatic alterations and their implications
  • Analysis of current biomarker testing approaches
  • Highlighted key driver genes associated with prostate cancer
  • Described various somatic alterations relevant to disease progression
  • Emphasized the importance of accurate biomarker testing in clinical practice

Abstract

We present an update on the molecular pathology of prostate cancer, including its molecular classification, key driver gene and other somatic alterations, as well as current concepts around biomarker testing, with an emphasis on information pertinent to the surgical pathologist for their daily practice and communications with clinicians. For in depth coverage of the molecular and clinical features of potential prostate cancer precursors, including high grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia, the readers are directed to recent publications.
