Factors Associated with Occult Adverse Pathologic Features in Prostate Cancer Patients Eligible for Active Surveillance

Review Data

Purpose and Significance of Study: This study explored the pre-surgical factors associated with the presence of hidden adverse pathologic features at prostatectomy in patients otherwise eligible for active surveillance. This model may help select patients for additional risk stratification with genomic assays or multiparametric MRI prior to treatment decisions.

 

Fit with Scope of Journal: The manuscript is of very high interest for the journal Clinical Oncology and Research.

o   The manuscript contains a few minor errors (already corrected in the galley proof), which are listed below –

 

The common errors are –

·       Omission of articles, e.g., “the” before “presence” in the Purpose in the Abstract, “a” before “increased” in the 4^th sentence of Results in the Abstract, and so on.

·       Omission of “,”, e.g., after “93%” in the last sentence of Results in the Abstract, and so on.

·       “Low-risk”, “high-risk”, “intermediate-risk”, “disease-specific” and “prostate-specific” must be hyphenated, while “multiparametric” must be written as a single word in all places to be consistent.
