Using multiparametric MRI Ultrasound-guided or MRI-guided biopsies will allow more accurate sampling of the tumors and therefore will increase the rate of "progression" on early (first and second) surveillance biopsies and decrease the rate of "progression" on late (third and further) surveillance biopsies compared… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Randomized Two-Arm Trial of Prostate Cancer Patients Undergoing Active Surveillance With or Without MRI-Guided Management: The MGM Trial

  1. Using multiparametric MRI Ultrasound-guided or MRI-guided biopsies will allow more accurate sampling of the tumors and therefore will increase the rate of "progression" on early (first and second) surveillance biopsies and decrease the rate of "progression" on late (third and further) surveillance biopsies compared to Transrectal Ultrasound-guided biopsies.
  2. Quality of life (QoL) will be similar in patients undergoing MRI Ultrasound or MRI-guided and Transrectal Ultrasound-guided biopsies.
  3. Biomarker expression levels will correlate with biopsy progression.
Read the detailed description

Favorable risk patients will be randomized to one of two active surveillance arms. Stratification will be based on Prostate-specific antigen density (PSAD) (=< 0.15 vs > 0.15 ng/mL per mL), and number of positive cores in the diagnostic biopsy (1 vs 2):

  • Arm I: Active Surveillance Alone (AS). TRUS guided biopsies at start (within 6 months of enrollment) and at yearly intervals thereafter up to 36 months after the initial biopsy (maximum four biopsies).
  • Arm II: MRI-Managed Active Surveillance (MRI-AS). MRIus or MRI-guided biopsies at start (within 6 months of enrollment) and at yearly intervals thereafter up to 36 months after the initial biopsy (maximum four biopsies).

Patients will also complete Quality of Life (QoL) assessments to provide unique data on the effects of MRI monitoring for patients undergoing active surveillance on QOL. The investigators have selected a group of measures that have been used extensively in prostate cancer populations.

Being tested
Transrectal Ultrasound-Guided Biopsy, MRI Ultrasound Biopsy, Expanded Prostate Cancer index Composite Questionnaire, Short-Form 12 of Health Related Quality of Life Questionnaire, Memorial Anxiety Scale for Prostate Cancer

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Rate of Progression in Subjects undergoing MRIus Biopsy vs Standard Ultrasound biopsy

    To determine of multiparametric MRIus-guided biopsies increase the rate of progression on early (first two) biopsies in men undergoing active surveillance as compared with early detection using standard ultrasound biopsy.

    Measured: 42 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Expression Levels of Biomarkers from biopsies collected with MRI-us Biopsy vs Standard Ultrasound Biopsy

    Measured: 42 months

  2. Effect of MRI Monitoring on Health-Related Quality of Life

    To determine the effect of MRI monitoring on health-related quality of life (HRQOL), prostate cancer-specific anxiety QOL (ie general, PSA-testing \& recurrence anxiety, PC-Anxiety) and prostate cancer-specific QOL (ie sexual, urinary \& bowel function, PC-QOL), particularly as they relate to ethnically and socioeconomically diverse and disparate populations.

    Measured: 42 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostate Cancer and Prostate Adenocarcinoma, run by University of Miami at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Dec 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of Progression in Subjects undergoing MRIus Biopsy vs Standard Ultrasound biopsy (time frame: 42 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Dec 2014.
