About this study

Official title: Diagnostic Performance of Prostate HistoScanningTM (PHS) in Men at Risk of Prostate Cancer Scheduled for an Initial Prostate Biopsy

The primary objective of the PHSTT-01 trial is to determine if prostate HistoScanning (HS) analysis can be used to improve the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (PCa), and potentially reduce the burden and number of biopsies in routine clinical practice. Prostate HS is an ultrasound-based tissue characterization technology specifically developed to detect, visualize, and locate tissue suspected of harboring PCa. These suspicious tissues are displayed as red areas on an imaging monitor. Recently a new biopsy guidance tool has been developed that uses the results of the prostate HS analysis.

The subjects that will participate in this study are all scheduled for a first biopsy of the prostate. They will initially be imaged using transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) to obtain data for prostate HS analysis. The results of HS analysis will be used later in the procedure. Subjects will then undergo a routine systematic 10- to 12-core biopsy procedure using TRUS. This will be followed by a TRUS-guided biopsy that uses the result of prostate HS analysis and new biopsy guidance tool.

Read the detailed description

PHSTT-01 is a multi-center, prospective clinical trial to evaluate the diagnostic performance of prostate HistoScanning (HS) analysis in men at risk of PCa that have been scheduled for a first prostate biopsy. The purpose of this study is to determine if prostate HS analysis can improve the detection of clinically significant PCa, and potentially reduce the burden and number of biopsies in routine clinical practice. Subjects are men with serum total prostate-specific antigen (PCA) <= 20ng/mL (<= 10ng/mL if taking the 5-alpha reductase inhibitor).

In a single visit, subjects will first be imaged with TRUS for the purpose of generating data for prostate HS analysis. The results of HS analysis will be used later in the procedure. Subjects will then undergo two consecutive biopsy procedures. First, using TRUS, a systematic 10- to 12-core biopsy procedure will be performed. In turn, prostate HS data taken at the beginning of the procedure will be used to determine suspicious areas (displayed as red on an imaging monitor) and used to guide the biopsy procedure. Areas that are identified as suspicious (zero to a maximum of 3 areas) will then be sampled with two biopsy cores. Depending on the number of suspicious areas identified by prostate HS, the number of cores will be zero to a maximum of 6 cores.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic performance of prostate HistoScanning (HS) to identify clinically significant PCa using histology outcomes from systematic prostate biopsy (Bx) as reference

    Compare prostate HS results to the systematic Bx outcome (positive or negative) for clinically significant PCa (defined as Gleason sum ≥ 7) in the non-run-in population.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Diagnostic performance of prostate HS to identify PCa using histology outcomes from systematic Bx as reference

    Compare prostate HS results to the systematic Bx outcome (positive or negative) for all PCa in the non-run-in population.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Diagnostic performance of prostate HS to identify clinically significant PCa using a combination of outcomes of both systematic Bx and HS-guided biopsy histology as reference

    Compare prostate HS results to the combination of systematic and HS-guided Bx outcomes (positive or negative) for clinically significant PCa (defined as Gleason sum ≥ 7) in the non-run-in population.

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Difference in detection rates of clinically significant PCa between systematic and HS-guided biopsy.

    Compared PCa detection rates of systematic and HS-guided prostate Bx in the non-run-in population.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Prostate HistoScanning in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Advanced Medical Diagnostics s.a. at 34 sites in 18 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jan 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 34 sites in Germany, Austria, Belgium, United Kingdom, Czechia and 13 more countries. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Sponsor is bankrupt). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Diagnostic performance of prostate HistoScanning (HS) to identify clinically significant PCa using histology outcomes from systematic prostate biopsy (Bx) as reference (time frame: 1 year). 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 5 Jan 2015.
