The gene expression profiles can be measured at the nucleic acid or protein level and used to stratify prostate cancer based on ethnicity. The gene expression profiles can also be used to identify a subject for prostate cancer treatment. Also provided are kits for diagnosing and prognosing prostate cancer and an array comprising probes for detecting the unique gene expression profiles associated with prostate cancer in subjects of African and/or Caucasian descent.
