The challenge for the next few years will be to individualize prostate cancer treatment and to determine whether or not a cancer will be lethal based on molecular characteristics at the time of diagnosis. In this view, the need for active treatment would represent a failure of any conservative approach.

In this view, the need for active treatment would represent a failure of any conservative approach.
