Background: The 4Kscore is a new commercially available blood-based diagnostic test which predicts risk for aggressive, clinically significant prostate cancer on prostate biopsy. The 4Kscore is currently restricted to patients who have not had a digital rectal exam (DRE) in the previous 96 h, owing to prior mixed data suggesting that prostate specific antigen (PSA) isoforms may increase by a statistically significant-if not necessarily clinically significant-amount shortly after DRE. Our primary objective was to determine if 4Kscore test results are affected by a preceding DRE.

The purpose of these experiments was to assess the synergistic activity of silibinin with chemotherapy agents in clinical use against prostate cancer. Silybin-phytosome, a commercially available formulation containing silibinin, has recently been studied in a phase I clinical trial. The silibinin doses used in the present study are clinically achievable based on the preliminary phase I data.
