167P Genetic testing for prostate cancer: The Indian scenario

Prostate cancer (PrCa) incidence is on the rise and was the 12th commonest cancer in India (GLOBOCAN 2020). Genetic testing for PrCa has been widely advocated owing to its poor prognosis, familial risks associated with underlying mutations and therapeutic implication of these mutations. Data on genetic testing practices related to PrCa among Indian medical and uro-oncologists is meagre. With the availability of mutation-based targeted treatment for PrCa, there exists a need to assimilate the current practice patterns in genetic testing.
