Frontline Cancer: After skin cancer, prostate cancer is the most common malignancy among American men, with 180,000 new cases each year. It’s the second leading cause of cancer death in men (more than 26,000 annually); only lung cancer kills more. Changing these grim statistics demands steadfast effort. Helping lead the effort is Christopher Kane, M.D., FACS, professor and chair of the Department of Urology at UC San Diego Health and a member of the leadership team at Moores Cancer Center.
