About this trial

The goal is to provide more accurate diagnostic tools and optimized diagnostic workflows for clinically suspected prostate cancer patients with prior negative biopsies, improving early detection rates for csPCa and reducing missed diagnoses.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Serum PSA > 4 ng/mL

At least one prior negative prostate biopsy

At least two consecutive increases in PSA and/or PHI

Negative digital rectal examination

Disqualifiers

Age ≤ 30 years or > 85 years

Concurrent presence of other malignant tumors

Previous treatment with any form of anti-tumor therapy or prostate surgery (excluding prostate biopsy)

Inability to comply with PSMA PET/MRI examination (e.g., contrast allergy, claustrophobia, etc.)

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • PSMA PET/MRI-TRUS guided prostate targeted combined saturation biopsy

    Diagnostic test

    The experimental group will undergo PSMA PET/MRI examination. For those with positive PSMA PET/MRI results, a PSMA PET/MRI-TRUS guided prostate targeted biopsy will be performed based on transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) guided transperineal saturation biopsy, targeting the positive lesions. For those with negative PSMA PET/MRI results, only TRUS guided transperineal saturation biopsy will be performed. Clinical and pathological data of the patients will be collected for statistical analysis.

  • TRUS guided transperineal saturation biopsy

    Diagnostic test

    The control group will receive TRUS guided transperineal saturation biopsy. Clinical and pathological data of the patients will be collected for statistical analysis.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Diagnostic Sensitivity

It refers to the percentage of patients who actually have prostate cancer correctly identified as positive (true positive). The calculation formula is: TP/(TP+FN)×100%. TP is true positive, and FN is false negative.

Time frame
Perioperative
2

Diagnostic Specificity

It refers to the percentage of patients who do not actually have prostate cancer correctly identified as negative (true negative). The calculation formula is: TN/(TN+FP)×100%. TN is true negative, and FP is false positive.

Time frame
Perioperative
3

Positive Predictive Value(PPV)

It refers to the proportion of true positives among the positive results obtained by a specific testing method. The calculation formula is: PPV = TP/(TP+FP)×100%.

Time frame
Perioperative
4

Negative Predictive Value(NPV)

It refers to the proportion of true negatives among the negative results obtained by a specific testing method. The calculation formula is: NPV = TN/(TN+FN)×100%.

Time frame
Perioperative

Secondary outcomes

1

PRECISION Questionnaire

The incidence of complications for the two biopsy methods.

Time frame
1 week before biopsy, 1 week after biopsy, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months.
2

EORTC QLQ-C30 Questionnaire

The change in quality of life compared to baseline values in the experimental group and control group.

Time frame
Before diagnosis, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months
3

Generalized Anxiety Disorder GAD-7 Scale

The difference in anxiety levels at each time point between the experimental group and the control group.

Time frame
Before diagnosis, 1 week after diagnosis, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months
4

Decision Conflict Scale, Decision Regret Scale

The decision-making differences at each time point between the experimental group and the control group.

Time frame
Before diagnosis, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months
