CAPRA Prostate Cancer Score

Calculate UCSF CAPRA score (0-10) for prostate cancer prognosis using PSA, Gleason score, clinical stage, percent positive cores, and age at diagnosis. CAPRA 0-2 = low risk; 3-5 = intermediate; 6-10 = high risk.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Calculate UCSF CAPRA score (0-10) for prostate cancer prognosis using PSA, Gleason score, clinical stage, percent positive cores, and age at diagnosis. CAPRA 0-2 = low risk; 3-5 = intermediate; 6-10 = high risk

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • PSA — The psa recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Clinical stage — The clinical stage recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Percent positive cores — The percent positive cores recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Age at diagnosis — The age at diagnosis recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the capra score result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the PSA, clinical stage, percent positive cores, age at diagnosis for the scenario you are assessing. Calculate UCSF CAPRA score (0-10) for prostate cancer prognosis using PSA, Gleason score, clinical stage, percent positive cores, and age at diagnosis. CAPRA 0-2 = low risk; 3-5 = intermediate; 6-10 = high risk. Use the capra score result to inform your calculation.
