Description
The technical objectives of this Phase II project are to identify unique biomarkers and produce molecular, antibody and peptide reagents that are specific for human prostate cancer progenitor stem cells. We propose to utilize the information from the Phase I award and subsequent research to develop assay reagents that would be used to develop a blood-based assay specific for circulating prostate cancer stem cells. This assay should prove to be an informative prognostic tool for predicting aggressiveness and metastatic potential of prostate cancer.
