Use of TP4303 to identify prostate cancer cells in voided urine samples.

This study validates our belief that patients with prostate cancer shed malignant cells in the urine that can be identified by targeting the VPAC receptors. If these results are further validated by multicentric studies, then this could form the basis for indications for a preliminary prostate biopsy in patients with elevated serum PSA but normal digital examination or in patients needing a repeat biopsy.
