The predictive OR of MnSOD AA for significant versus insignificant cancers was 5.04 (sensitivity=0.58; positive predictive value=0.79) in men >70 years old. MnSOD polymorphism is strongly associated with the clinical significance of prostate cancer suggesting that oxidative stress may be involved in the progression of the disease. MnSOD may be a clinically useful marker to predict the potential of progression from clinically insignificant to significant cancers.
