About this study

Official title: Risk-adapted Strategy Combining Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Prostate-specific Antigen Density to Individualize Biopsy Decision in Patients With PI-RADS 3 'Gray Zone' Lesions

Recent guidelines now recommend multi parametric magnetic resonance imaging prior to biopsy for all men as an integral part of improved diagnosis of clinical significant prostate cancer. However, magnetic resonance imaging targeted biopsy is a strategy that focuses on maximizing detection of clinical significant prostate cancer, but this procedure has the disadvantage of leading to higher detection of clinically insignificant prostate cancers. One of the risk-stratifications developed to minimize the existing disadvantages and avoid unnecessary biopsy procedures is a strategy in which multi parametric magnetic resonance imaging and prostate-specific antigen density are used in combination. This is especially important in all patients with PI-RADS (Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System) 3 lesions which are also interpreted as indeterminate mpMRI findings. Current guidelines suggest that biopsy may be omitted in some patient groups with PI-RADS 3 lesions in the risk-adapted strategy involving prostate-specific antigen density. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of risk-adapted strategies involving prostate-specific antigen density in biopsy decision to avoid unnecessary biopsy vs the risk of missing clinical significant prostate cancer diagnosis in patients with PI-RADS 3 lesions.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostate Cancer and Prostate Adenocarcinoma, run by Ankara Etlik City Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 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 8 Sep 2023. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Reducing unnecessary prostate biopsy with the combined use of magnetic resonance imaging and prostat-specific antigen density measurement (time frame: 2 weeks from the outpatient clinic admission). 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 Sep 2023.
