We tested the association between endogenous testosterone density(ETD;the ratio between endogenous testosterone[ET]and prostate volume)and prostate cancer(PCa)aggressiveness in very favorable low-and intermediate-risk PCa patients who underwent radical prostatectomy(RP).Only patients with prostate-specific antigen(PSA)within 10 ng ml^(-1),clinical stage T1c,and International Society of Urological Pathology(IsUP)grade group 1 or 2 were *** ET levels up to 350 ng dl^(-1)were classified as *** quantitation density factors were evaluated as the ratio between percentage of biopsy-positive cores and prostate volume(biopsy-positive cores density,BPCD)and the ratio between percentage of cancer invasion at final pathology and prostate weight(tumor load density,TLD).Disease upgrading was coded as ISUP grade group>2,and progression as recurrence(biochemical and/or local and/or distant).Risk associations were evaluated by multivariable Cox and logistic regression *** 320 patients,151(47.2%)had intermediate-risk ***(median:402.3 ng dl^(-1))resulted abnormal in 111(34.7%)cases(median ETD:9.8 ng dl^(-1)ml^(-1)).Upgrading and progression occurred in 109(34.1%)and 32(10.6%)cases,*** was predicted by ISUP grade group 2(hazard ratio[HR]:2.290;P=0.029)and upgrading(HR:3.098;P=0.003),which was associated with ISUP grade group 2(odds ratio[OR]:1.785;P=0.017)and TLD above the median(OR:2.261;P=0.001).After adjustment for PSAdensity and bodymass index(BMI),ETDabovethemedianwas positivelyassociatedwithBPCD(OR:3.404;P<0.001)and TLD(OR:5.238;P<0.001).Notably,subjects with abnormal ET were more likely to have higher BPCD(OR:5.566;P=0.002),as well as TLD(OR:14.998;P=0.016).Independently by routinely evaluated factors,as ETD increased,BPCD and TLD increased,but increments were higher for abnormal ET *** very favorable cohorts,ETD may further stratify the risk of aggressive PCa.
