NCT01024959

Brief Summary

The objective of this multi-center clinical study is to determine the association of the PCA3 Score with prostate biopsy outcome and validate the assay's performance characteristics in men with previous negative prostate biopsies. An elevated PCA3 Score is thought to be associated with an increased likelihood of positive biopsy. The results of this study are intended to be used for regulatory filings for use as an in vitro diagnostic test.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Association of PCA3 Score With Prostate Biopsy Outcome (PCA3 Score Using Cutoff of 25.)

    The likelihood of positive biopsy was determined by the PCA3 Score expressed as a binary categorical variable: PCA3 Score \>=25 was positive, PCA3 Score \<25 was negative

    At the time of biopsy

Study Arms (1)

PCA3 Assay

EXPERIMENTAL
Other: PCA3 Assay

Interventions

Post-Digital Rectal Exam (DRE) urine collected prior to prostate biopsy

PCA3 Assay

Eligibility Criteria

Age40 Years+
Sexmale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • The subject must be able to comprehend and sign an approved informed consent form and other applicable study enrollment documents

You may not qualify if:

  • Use of medications or hormones that are known to affect serum PSA levels within 3 - 6 months of study enrollment
  • Clinical symptoms of urinary tract infection (including prostatitis) at the time of enrollment
  • History of prostate cancer
  • History of invasive treatments for benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) or lower urinary tract symptoms within 6 months of study enrollment
  • Medical history or concurrent illness that the investigator considers sufficiently serious to interfere with the conduct, completion, or results of this trial, or constitutes an unacceptable risk to the subject
  • Participation in pharmaceutical or treatment related clinical study within 6 months of study enrollment. Exception: Trials for non-prostate conditions may be acceptable, with approval by the investigator and Sponsor
