ULTRASENSITIVE SERUM PROSTATE SPECIFIC ANTIGEN NADIR ACCURATELY PREDICTS THE RISK OF EARLY RELAPSE AFTER RADICAL PROSTATECTOMY

Ultrasensitive PSA nadir accurately predicts the risk of early biochemical relapse following RP. Men who achieve a nadir of less than 0.01 ng/ml have a low likelihood of early relapse. Higher nadir points may identify candidates for early adjuvant or salvage therapies.
