Black men in the US have substantially higher prostate cancer incidence rates than the general population. The extent to which the incidence disparity is due to prostate cancer being more prevalent, more aggressive, and/or more frequently diagnosed in black men is unknown. We estimated three independently developed models of prostate cancer natural history in black men and in the general population using an updated reconstruction of PSA screening, based on the National Health Interview Survey in 2005, and prostate cancer incidence from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results program in 1975–2000. Using the estimated models, we compared prostate cancer natural history in black men and in the general population. The models projected that 30–43% (range across models) of black men develop preclinical prostate cancer by age 85 years, a risk that is (relatively) 28–56% higher than in the general population. Among men who have had preclinical disease onset, black men have a similar risk of diagnosis (35–49%) compared with the general population (32–44%), but their risk of progression to metastatic disease by the time of diagnosis is 44–75% higher than in the general population. Prostate cancer incidence patterns implicate higher incidence of preclinical disease and higher risk of metastatic progression among black men. The findings suggest screening black men earlier than white men and support further research into the benefit-harm tradeoffs of more aggressive screening policies for black men.
