2 Fig. 1 Speckle-type POZ protein (SPOP), phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), and tumor protein 53 (TP53) abnormalities across the spectrum of early and advanced prostate cancer. SPOP mutations occur in 10–15% of prostate cancer, with relatively stable prevalence across stages of disease. Mutations and deletions in PTEN and TP53 increase in frequency with advanced disease (but do not always occur together). Co-occurrence of SPOP mutations and PTEN and TP53 lesions are uncommon in early prostate cancer, but begin to overlap with advanced disease.
