This study aims to characterize the expression of inflammasome\u2010related genes in PCa and evaluate their association with clinical outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>De\u2010identified transcriptome data from the Decipher GRID RP, a cohort of 52,266 radical prostatectomy (RP) samples tested (2016\u20132024) with the Decipher prostate genomic classifier (Veracyte, San Diego, CA), were retrieved from the GRID registry (NCT02609269). Expression analysis of 34 genes involved in inflammatory pathways was conducted to associate their expression with clinical and genomic variables. Outcomes analyses were conducted on a retrospective cohort of 855 patients treated with RP (META855).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Analysis of inflammasome gene expression in the GRID RP cohort revealed that most genes exhibit low baseline expression, whereas HSP90AB1, APP, TXN, and TXNIP demonstrate strong expression signals. Additionally, higher expression of most genes was associated with Gleason Grade Group 4\u20135 and very high Decipher scores. On survival analysis of the META855 cohort, higher expressions of AIM2 and HSP90AB1 were significantly associated with worse metastasis\u2010free survival. Conversely, both high and low expression levels of NLRP3 were associated with better metastasis\u2010free survival outcomes following RP compared to average expression. On multivariable Cox regression analysis, higher expressions of AIM2 (HR 1.75) and HSP90AB1 (HR 1.60) were significantly associated with shorter time to metastasis following RP.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>There is molecular heterogeneity within pro\u2010inflammatory genes among patients with PCa.
