Brief Summary

Prostate biopsies are currently the gold standard for the diagnosis of prostate cancer. Many biopsies, however, are unnecessary or cannot detect significant prostate cancer (PCa). With multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) we now potentially have a way of increasing the detection of detecting clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) while decreasing the detection of non-significant PCa.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Prostate Cancer

    Number of subjects with positive clinically significant prostate cancer results

    Within 2-4 wks after biopsy

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Overall Detection Rate of Prostate Cancer Between Arm A mpMRI+ and Arm B

    Within 2-4 wks from biopsy

  • Comparison of UTI Incidence in Arm A mpMRI+ and Arm B

    From the time of biopsy through 4 weeks post-biopsy

Study Arms (2)

MRI/ultrasound transperineal prostate biopsy

EXPERIMENTAL

In arm A, all patients with positive mpMRI evidence of lesions suspicious for PCa, i.e. PI RADS ≥ 3 will be submitted to transperineal mpMRI-targeted prostate biopsy (arm A MRI+). The gland and the regions of interest will be contoured, and the prostate contour will be fused in real time with the TRUS image. Biopsies will be performed via a transperineal approach in the operating room. The patient will be placed in dorsal lithotomy position. mpMRI-targeted biopsies will be performed on regions of interest, and three to six cores will be obtained for biopsy from each lesion and is standard of care according to START criteria for targeted biopsy. In cases of negative mpMRI results i.e. PI RADS\<3, arm A patients will undergo TRUS-guided transrectal 12-core prostate biopsy (arm A MRI-) as described in arm B.

Device: MRI/ultrasound transperineal prostate biopsy

transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

TRUS-guided transrectal prostate biopsy will be performed using a disposable 18-gauge biopsy gun with a specimen size of 18-22 mm (Bard Medical, Covington, GA, USA). The 12 cores will be obtained from 12 separate anatomical regions of the prostate which is standard practice in performing TRUS-guided transrectal prostate biopsy: left medial apex, left lateral apex, left medial midgland, left lateral midgland, left medial base, left lateral base, right medial apex, right lateral apex, right medial midgland, right lateral midgland, right medial base and right lateral base.

Device: transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy

Interventions

3-6 targeted biopsy cores from each prostate region of interest

MRI/ultrasound transperineal prostate biopsy

12 systematic biopsy cores

transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy
