Prostate Cancer Detection Rate of Targeted Biopsies With PCaVision
- Conditions
- Prostate Cancer
- Interventions
- Diagnostic Test: 3D multi-parametric ultrasound targeted biopsy pathway using PcaVisionDiagnostic Test: MRI targeted biopsy pathway
- Registration Number
- NCT06281769
- Brief Summary
The primary objective is to demonstrate non-inferiority of the detection rate of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) in targeted biopsies based on PCaVision imaging (PCaVision pathway) in comparison with the detection rate of clinically significant cancer in targeted biopsies based on MRI (MRI pathway).
- Detailed Description
All patients will undergo imaging using MRI and PCaVision during which suspicious lesions will be identified based on each imaging technique independently with readers being blinded for the results of the other imaging technique. Thereafter, a MRI targeted 3-core biopsy per lesion (maximum of 2 lesions) and/ or a PCaVision targeted 3-core biopsy (maximum of 2 lesions) will be performed by a one physician if suspicious lesions have been identified based on imaging. If lesions have been identified with both PCaVision and MRI in the same patient, the order of the targeted biopsies will be randomized. If the same lesion has been identified on both MRI and PCaVision, both a MRI-targeted and a PCaVision targeted biopsy will be separately performed. Histological examination of the targeted biopsies will be performed to determine presence of clinically significant prostate cancer.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Detection rate of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) in targeted biopsies based on PCaVision imaging in comparison with the detection rate of clinically significant cancer in targeted biopsies based on MRI. Two weeks csPCa defined as GG ≥ 2 in any of the biopsy cores taken from a lesion
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Proportion of men in whom targeted biopsies could be safely omitted in the PCaVision pathway versus the MRI pathway. Two weeks Defined as the number of men in whom no lesions for target biopsies have been identified by PCaVision while no CsPCa is detected in either MRI targeted biopsies or systematic biopsies.
Detection rate of three different definitions of prostate cancer in targeted biopsies based on PCaVision imaging (PCaVision pathway) in comparison with the detection rate of targeted biopsies based on MRI (MRI pathway). Two weeks (i) ISUP ≥ 3 in any of the biopsy cores taken from a lesion; (ii) ISUP ≥ 2 with cribriform growth and/or intraductal carcinoma (CR/IDC) in any of the biopsy cores taken from a lesion; (iii) ISUP = 1
Detection rate of clinically significant prostate cancer in targeted biopsies based on PCaVision imaging using various incremental levels of PCaVision's image quality requirements in comparison with the detection rate of targeted biopsies based on MRI. Two weeks Number of men in whom the PCaVision pathway generated insufficient quality images with the number of men with insufficient quality MRI images in the MRI pathway. Two weeks
