⚠️ Check out our latest paper on genomics in the Miami Active Surveillance Trial (MAST): 🔹️ Genomic scores were similar between GG1 cores with vs. without GG2+ cancer elsewhere in the prostate. 🔹️PCa is multifocal and each focus is genomically independent. @sanojpunnen

#AUA2025 Excited to have presented on genomic data gathered for 10yrs. in the Miami Active Surveillance Trial (MAST) ran by @sanojpunnen at @dsui_miami_uro. ⚠️ GG1 cancer foci are independent - genomic scores do not predict higher-grade disease elsewhere in the prostate!
