PSA at age 60 predicts dying of prostate cancer before 85 years

A man's PSA value at age 60 reliably predicted the risk of fatal prostate cancer over the next 25 years, according to data from a Swedish study.

Men who had PSA values below the median of ≤1 ng/mL had less than a 1% risk of dying of prostate cancer by age 85, Hans Lilja, M.D., of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York, reported at the American Urological Association meeting.
