Localised prostate cancer, very low and low risk: lines of therapy
3 standard-of-care settings across 2 lines and 2 biomarker subgroups. Rows come from the cancer page's standard of care; the grid places each on its line and subgroup.
Screening, prevention and diagnosis
| Subgroup | Setting | Approach | Products and trials | Guideline | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| All comers | Diagnosis | MRI before biopsy and targeted plus systematic cores; genomic classifiers or AI pathology to refine surveillance decisions. | 76 |
Early / localised
| Subgroup | Setting | Approach | Products and trials | Guideline | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Risk group | Very low and low risk, preferred | Active surveillance with PSA every six months, MRI and repeat biopsy; treatment only on progression to Grade Group 2 or more. | NCCN Guidelines: Prostate Cancer | 64 | |
| Risk group | Low risk, men who prefer treatment | Radical prostatectomy, moderately hypofractionated external beam radiotherapy, five-fraction stereotactic radiotherapy or brachytherapy, without hormone therapy. | NCCN Guidelines: Prostate Cancer | 71 |
Lines and subgroups are parsed from the setting text of each standard-of-care row and can misclassify an unusual phrasing; the row’s own setting is always shown. Guideline chips reflect the NCCN category and ESMO-MCBS grade recorded on the cancer page, checked on its stated date. Not medical advice.
