Prostate cancer antigen 3 (PCA3) is a urinary biomarker for prostate cancer and has demonstrated a good specificity and sensitivity representing a minimally invasive test.PCA3 assay could be useful in combination with PSA to suggest an eventual rebiopsy in men who have had one or more previous negative prostate biopsies.Combination of multiple tumor biomarkers will be the trend in the near future to achieve the goal of evaluate the aggressiveness of cancer and at the same time reducing the number of unnecessary biopsies.
