Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 55 years and older
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients aged above 55 who had an indication for prostate biopsy will be screened for eligibility.

Who may be able to join

  • Age ≥55 years old.
  • Patients had tPSA/fPSA within 1 month before biopsy.
  • Patients had any of the following indications for prostate biopsy:
  • Suspicious prostate nodules were found by digital rectal examination
  • Suspicious lesions were detected by B-ultrasound or MRI
  • PSA>10ng/ml
  • PSA 4-10ng/ml, with abnormal f/tPSA and/or PSAD values

Who cannot join

  • malignant tumors other than prostate adenocarcinoma indicated by pathology.
  • Combined with other malignant tumors (such as rectal cancer, bladder cancer, testicular cancer, etc.) that may affect the imaging findings of transrectal ultrasound or mpMRI.

About this study

To predict prostate cancer by ultrasound radiomics in ultrasound fusion prostate targeted biopsy.

Read the detailed description

Researchers plan to develop a diagnostic and prognostic evaluation model for prostate cancer by analyzing abnormal echoes in prostate ultrasound images through radiomics. This model will be used to guide ultrasound radiomics-fusion prostate biopsy, and its accuracy will be compared with that of systematic biopsy.

Prostatic Neoplasms

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Targeted biopsyDiagnostic test

    For the high-risk targets identified by the radiomics model, perform targeted biopsy under ultrasound fusion.

What is being measured

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

  1. Positive rate of ultrasound radiomics fusion targeted biopsy

    Positive rate of ultrasound radiomics fusion targeted biopsy

    Measured: Up to seventh day when the pathological results were obtained after the targeted biopsy

  2. Positive rate of systematic biopsy

    Positive rate of systematic biopsy

    Measured: Up to seventh day when the pathological results were obtained after the targeted biopsy

  3. Positive rate of mpMRI cognitive fusion targeted biopsy

    Positive rate of mpMRI cognitive fusion targeted biopsy

    Measured: Up to seventh day when the pathological results were obtained after the targeted biopsy

  4. Ultrasound radiomics parameters

    The ultrasound images are obtained by transrectal ultrasound while prostate biopsy. Then investigators use 3D-Slicer/ITK-SNAP software to draw the area of interest (ROI). "Pyradiomics" library will be used to extract the radiomics features.

    Measured: The 30min following the transrectal ultrasonography

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Gleason's score of positive tissue

    Gleason's score of positive tissue from targeted prostate biopsy. Prostate cancer was graded by Gleason score (GS) ranging from 6 to 10. Tumors of GS 6 (3 + 3) are considered low grade (LG), while GS ≥7 are high grade (HG).

    Measured: Up to seventh day when the pathological results were obtained after the targeted biopsy

  2. PI-RADS score

    Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) score was obtained according to multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging. PI-RADS is used to standardize interpretation of prostate MRI. Each lesion is assigned a score from 1 to 5 indicating the likelihood of clinically significant cancer. PI-RADS 1: clinically significant cancer is highly unlikely to be present; PI-RADS 2: clinically significant cancer is unlikely to be present; PI-RADS 3: the presence of clinically significant cancer is equivocal; PI-RADS 4: clinically significant cancer is likely to be present; PI-RADS 5: clinically significant cancer is highly likely to be present.

    Measured: Within one month prior to prostate biopsy.

  3. Incidence of complications

    Incidence of complications associated with prostate biopsy

    Measured: Up to the first month after the targeted biopsy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostate Cancer and Ultrasound, run by Shanghai Minhang Central Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 7 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Oct 2026. 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Positive rate of ultrasound radiomics fusion targeted biopsy (time frame: Up to seventh day when the pathological results were obtained after the targeted biopsy). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 6 Oct 2026.
