Decipher Prostate Genomic Classifier
Use
The Decipher Prostate Genomic Classifier is a 22-gene expression test designed to provide prognostic information for prostate cancer patients. It helps physicians in making informed treatment decisions by clarifying the risk of metastasis within the next five years. The test is validated across a spectrum of localized prostate cancer and its results are used to tailor treatment plans, potentially recommending less or more intensive treatment based on the assessed risk.

Limitations
