Hereditary prostate cancer (HPC) has been used to characterize families with a particularly strong history of prostate cancer and includes those families with either: three or more affected first-degree relatives, prostate cancer diagnosed in three successive generations of the same lineage, or two first-degree relatives both diagnosed with early-onset disease. Familial cancer loci have been found, but the genes that cause familial prostate cancer remain largely elusive.
