Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Men aged 50\-69 years from specific primary care centres in the three cities were invited to attend a 30\-minute prostate check clinic appointment in which they were informed about the study and asked to consent to a prostate specific antigen (PSA) test. Men with a raised PSA (initially \=3\.0 ng/ml if 50?59 years; \=4\.0 ng/ml if 60?69 years; but changed to \=3\.0 ng/ml for all men after 1 year) were invited for biopsy. Men with confirmed localised prostate cancer were invited to participate in a randomised trial of recruitment strategies.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Men considered by the GP to be unfit for any of the potential treatments (ie those terminally ill or with serious co\-morbidity).
