GUidance In Prostate Cancer DEtection With 18F-PSMA-1007-PET/MRI and Targeted Biopsies (GUIDE PSMA PET)

November 26, 2025 updated by: Mads Ryo Jochumsen

GUidance In Prostate Cancer DEtection With 18F-PSMA-1007-PET/MRI and Targeted Biopsies (GUIDE PSMA PET/MRI)

The goal of this clinical study is to test the performance of PSMA PET/MRI-guided biopsies against systematic biopsies in men with negative MRI scan (PI-RADS 1-2) of the prostate with continuous suspicion of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) due to PSAd > 0.20. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Can biopsies safely be avoided at PRIMARY score 1-2 without missing csPCa? Does targeted PSMA PET/MRI-guided biopsies have a higher detection rate of csPCa compared to systematic biopsies?

Participants will undergo both transperineal MRI/ultrasound fusion target biopsies from PRIMARY score 3-5 lesions on PSMA PET and systematic biopsies irrespective of the PRIMARY-lesion.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Detection rate of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) for PSMA guided biopsies vs systematic biopsies
Time Frame: From enrollment to pathology report is ready, assessed up to 2 years

CsPCa is defined as "International Society of Urological Pathology" (ISUP) grade ≥ 2.

The ISUP grade scale ranges from 1 to 5, where grade 1 is low-risk / indolent / non-significant prostate cancer and grade 5 is the most aggressive prostate cancer form with worse outcome.

From enrollment to pathology report is ready, assessed up to 2 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
High negative predictive value for having csPCa in case of PRIMARY 1-2 (and PI-RADS 1-2)
Time Frame: From enrollment to pathology report, assessed up to 2 years
A high negative predictive value for having csPCa in case of PRIMARY 1-2 (and PI-RADS 1-2) means that biopsies can safely be avoided in patients with PRIMARY 1-2 lesions only.
From enrollment to pathology report, assessed up to 2 years
