Use of Multi-Parametric MRI With Prostate Biopsy for Cancer Diagnosis.

October 14, 2013 updated by: Samir Taneja, MD, NYU Langone Health

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

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: DIAGNOSTIC
  • Allocation: NA
  • Interventional Model: SINGLE_GROUP
  • Masking: NONE

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
OTHER: Targeted Biopsy
Men 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.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Evaluation of rates of prostate cancer diagnosis
Time Frame: One week after biopsy
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.
One week after biopsy

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Evaluation of Rate of cancer diagnosis using targeted biopsy
Time Frame: One week after 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.
One week after biopsy
