About this study

Official title: ReIMAGINE Prostate Cancer Screening - Inviting Men for Prostate Cancer Screening Using MRI

Single site study to assess the feasibility of prostate cancer screening using an invitation for a prostate MRI scan via GP practices. This feasibility study will assess the acceptability of an MRI as a prostate cancer screening assessment and assess the prevalence of MRI defined suspicious lesions and cancer in men across a spectrum of PSA results.

Read the detailed description

ReIMAGINE Prostate cancer screening is a single site screening study to assess the feasibility of MRI as a screening tool for prostate care and determine the prevalence of MRI defined suspicious lesions and cancer in men across a spectrum of PSA results.

Men with no previous prostate cancer diagnosis, but deemed suitable based on age will be identified through general practitioner (GP) practices who will act as participant identification centres (PIC's). Potential participants will be identified through screening of existing patient databases at multiple London GP surgeries participating in the study, and randomly selected for invitation. The ReIMAGINE study team will link with London cancer networks and Noclor research support (https://www.noclor.nhs.uk/) who will make first contact with potentially eligible men.

A personalised invitation letter from each man's own GP will be sent to him. Invitation letters will be sent in batches so to limit the time between the invitation and their study visit. Batched invitations will be prepared using an iterative process so to allow the study team to assess uptake rates and limit the gap between invitation and study visits.

Invitation letters will include contact details for the ReIMAGINE study team who will coordinate bookings for research visits for all responders.

All consented men will have a blood test for PSA and a screening MRI scan. This will take a maximum of 20 minutes, and will include T2, diffusion and research specific sequences.

Two radiologists will report the MRI blinded to the PSA result, with a third reviewer when there is disagreement between reporters. Men in whom a suspicious lesion is seen (MRI screen positive) or who have a suspicious PSA density (>0.12ng/ml) will be recommended to have an National Health Service (NHS) referral for suspected prostate cancer as per National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines.

Screen negative men will at this point exit the study. Screen positive men will be followed up to gather data from any investigations (mpMRI +/- prostate biopsy) that may occur as a result of the NHS referral. No formal visits will be required to collect this data. Participant consent will be sought to approach GP or other secondary care centre.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test in people with Prostate Cancer Screening and Prostate Cancer, run by University College, London at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 3 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 15 Oct 2021. 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 Kingdom. 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?

The acceptance rate of an invitation for a screening prostate MRI in men who have not had a prostate cancer diagnosis (time frame: 3 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04063566, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 15 Oct 2021.
