Table 1.

Numbers with biopsy, cancer, and high-grade cancer in the Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial.

Placebo (Z = 0) Finasteride (Z = 1) Combined
Randomized 8025 7966 15991
Cancer Status Known by Biopsy (R = 1) 5217 4951 10168
Prostate Cancer (S = 1) 1194 821 2015
High Grade Prostate Cancer (Y = 1) 264 299 563

NOTE: These numbers are slightly different from those reported in Thompson et al. (2003) because of early study termination and because we only used participants with complete covariate information. We repeated the analyses reported in Sections 2.2, 3.1, and 3.2 using Thompson and colleagues’ final dataset, and results were nearly identical.
