Abstract
Alterations in ERG gene expression can be observed in patients with prostate cancer. Specific ERG isoforms are associated with, or involved in, prostate cancer. Compositions comprising these isoforms provide therapeutic benefit and can be used in methods of detecting, diagnosing, prognosing, and treating prostate cancer. These compositions provide biomarkers for detecting the expression of combinations of the PSA/KLK3, PMEPA1, NKX3.1, ODC1, AMD1, and ERG genes.
