Mistry et al 2 have predicted that by 2030 prostate cancer is set to become the most prevalent of all cancers in the UK. 1 One in 8 men at some point in their lives will get prostate cancer, 250,000 men are living with prostate cancer.
In the UK prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and accounts for around a quarter (26%) of male cases.
