Prostate cancer
Prostate cancer was the most frequent type of cancer in men and the second leading cause of cancer deaths[@ramirez-garrastacho2021]. Currently, metastatic disease is incurable.
Prostate cancer is classified as: - Localised - Further subdivided based on PSA levels, ISUP grade, Gleason score, clinical TNM stage - Locally advanced - Metastatic disease
Over diagnosis and over treatment are problems when using PSA as a marker[@ramirez-garrastacho2021] which leads to the exploration of alternatives, such as the use of Extracellular vesicles as markers for prostate cancer, or the study of circulating tumor cells for prostate cancer diagnosis.
