About this study

Official title: Comparative Analysis of Software-based MRI-Ultrasound Image Fusion Against Cognitive Targeting of Multi-Parametric MRI Findings With Prostate Biopsy

This is a prospective single center trial to examine the rates of cancer diagnosis when using computerized software to target suspicious lesions within the prostate identified on mpMRI. The primary evaluation involves comparing the rate of cancer diagnosis when using software-based MRI-Ultrasound image fusion guided biopsy to sample mpMRI findings to the use of visual guided biopsy (cognitive or mental targeting) of the same target. The hypothesis being tested is that fusion guided biopsy will increase detection prostate cancer within mpMRI findings as compared to visual guided biopsy of these areas

Study groups in NCT01964638
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Targeted BiopsyOtherMen being evaluated for prostate cancer based upon standard of care clinical parameters (e.g. elevated PSA levels, abnormal DRE, mpMRI) will be considered for enrollment. Men who have undergone prostate mpMRI that has revealed an area(s) of suspicion for prostate cancer are eligible for enrollment. All men enrolled in the study undergo fusion targeted biopsy, visual estimation biopsy, and systematic biopsy. As a result the study includes a single arm with direct comparison of biopsy techniques.
Receives: Procedure: Targeted Biopsy

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of rates of prostate cancer diagnosis

    The primary endpoint of the study is the evaluation of the rates of prostate cancer diagnosis using software based MRI-TRUS imaging fusion targeting of mpMRI lesions as compared to cognitive co-registration and targeting of mpMRI lesions.

    Measured: One week after biopsy

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluation of Rate of cancer diagnosis using targeted biopsy

    The secondary endpoint of the study is the evaluation of the rate of cancer diagnosis using targeted biopsy (software or cognitive targeting) as compared to standard of care prostate biopsy.

    Measured: One week after biopsy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Targeted Biopsy in people with Prostate Cancer, run by NYU Langone Health 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 3 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Oct 2013. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Evaluation of rates of prostate cancer diagnosis (time frame: One week after biopsy). 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 17 Oct 2013.
