PCA3 has proven to be of value in the diagnosis of PCa. However, so far few attempts have been made to investigate the prognostic value of PCA3. Our objective was to further investigate the prognostic value of PCA3.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>In this study we correlated the PCA3 score in urinary sediments after digital rectal examination in 62 men with the classical prognostic parameters assessed in radical prostatectomy specimens (i.e. Gleason score, pathological tumor stage and total tumor volume) and moreover, with the expression of three immunohistochemical markers for PCa biological aggressiveness (i.e. E\u2010cadherin, alpha\u2010catenin and EZH2). The results from this study serve as a reflection on and a valuable adjunct to recently published results.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>We did not find a significant correlation of the PCA3 score with the classical prognostic parameters assessed in radical prostatectomy specimens or the expression of the immunohistochemical markers for PCa biological aggressiveness. However, we did observe a trend for a higher PCA3 score in significant PCa versus insignificant PCa, aberrant E\u2010cadherin staining versus normal E\u2010cadherin staining and increased EZH2 staining versus normal EZH2 staining.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>In this study we could not prove the prognostic value of PCA3. Further research with large numbers of men and adequate follow\u2010up is needed to provide a definitive answer to the question if PCA3 is not only a diagnostic but also a prognostic PCa marker.
