About

Dr. Farouk M. el Khatib’s research centers on the endocrinology of prostate cancer, with a particular focus on the clinical significance of testosterone levels. His most-cited work, a 2021 prospective cohort study, provides compelling evidence for integrating both total and calculated free testosterone measurements into the routine management of prostate cancer. This study, which has garnered 5 citations, directly addresses a critical gap by systematically assessing how these hormonal profiles correlate with disease aggressiveness and recurrence outcomes. By demonstrating that a more nuanced, dual-marker approach could refine risk stratification, Dr. el Khatib’s contribution offers a practical, evidence-based tool for clinicians seeking to personalize treatment decisions. His work underscores the importance of moving beyond single-marker assessments, potentially improving prognostic accuracy and therapeutic monitoring for men with prostate cancer. This foundational study positions Dr. el Khatib as a key voice in bridging endocrinology and urologic oncology, with implications for both clinical practice and future research into hormonal drivers of disease progression.
