The South African Prostate Cancer Screening Guidelines.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most widespread solid organ malignancy in males and ranks as the fifth leading cause of death globally. Identifying and treating men with clinically significant disease while avoiding the over-diagnosis and over-treatment of indolent disease remains a significant challenge. Several professional associations have developed guidelines on screening and early diagnosis of asymptomatic men with prostate-specific antigen testing.

Kataegis associated mutational processes linked to adverse prostate cancer presentation in African men.

Kataegis, the focal hypermutation of single base substitutions (SBS) in tumour genomes, has received little attention with respect to prostate cancer (PCa) associated molecular and clinical features. Most notably, data is lacking with regards to this tumour evolutionary phenomenon and PCa racial disparities, with African men disproportionately impacted. Here through comparison between African (n = 109) and non-African (n = 79) whole genome sequenced treatment naïve primary tumours, using a single analytical workflow we assessed for shared and unique features of kataegis.
