Description…

TMPRSS2:ERG gene fusions are a common genetic event in prostate cancer. These fusions are specific for prostate cancer and have also been observed in precursor lesions. Since TMPRSS2:ERG fusions are not seen in every prostate cancer, their utility is in assays combined with other biomarkers, such as PCA3.
