A simplified MyProstateScore2.0 for high-grade prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT: Background: The limited diagnostic accuracy of prostate-specific antigen screening for prostate cancer (PCa) has prompted innovative solutions, such as the state-of-the-art 18-gene urine test for clinically-significant PCa (MyProstateScore2.0 (MPS2)). Objective: We aim to develop a non-invasive biomarker test, the simplified MPS2 (sMPS2), which achieves similar state-of-the-art accuracy as MPS2 for predicting high-grade PCa but requires substantially fewer genes than the 18-gene MPS2 to improve its accessibility for routine clinical care. Methods: We grounded the development of sMPS2 in the Predictability, Computability, and Stability (PCS) framework for veridical data science. Under this framework, we stress-tested the development of sMPS2 across various data preproce
