Background: We hypothesized that ancestry-mediated methylated DNA changes may drive racial and ethnic disparity in prostate cancer (PCa). To test this hypothesis, we analyzed genetic ancestry and association with DNA methylation changes in PCa disparity. Materials and Methods: Pyrosequencing and ancestry informative markers were used for DNA methylation and genetic ancestry testing, respectively. Results: Using Spearman rho rank correlation test, the data demonstrated significant (p
