Fusion Versus Cognitive MRI Targeted Prostatic Biopsy
NCT ID:
NCT05969704
Condition:
Prostatic Cancer
Conditions: Official terms:
Prostatic Neoplasms
Conditions: Keywords:
fusion biopsy
Study type:
Interventional
Study phase:
N/A
Overall status:
Recruiting
Study design:
Allocation:
Randomized
Intervention model:
Parallel Assignment
Primary purpose:
Diagnostic
Masking:
Single (Participant)
Intervention:
Intervention type:
Procedure
Intervention name:
MRI fusion targeted prostatic biopsy
Description:
combines the pictures from an MRI and an ultrasound to create a detailed 3-D image of the
prostate. This procedure makes it easier to see an abnormal lesion of prostate in order
to guide the biopsy needle into the abnormal lesion
Arm group label:
fusion biopsy
Other name:
fusion biopsy
Intervention type:
Procedure
Intervention name:
MRI cognitive targeted prostatic biopsy
Description:
the biopsy operator reviews the MR images and creates a mental three-dimensional
representation of the prostate and of the lesion within it to take a biopsy from the
lesion
Arm group label:
cognitive biopsy
Other name:
cognitive biposy
Summary:
The aim of the present study is to compare the accuracy of Magnetic resonance imaging
targeted (fusion) versus cognitive prostatic biopsy in biopsy-naïve suspected cancer
prostate patient
Detailed description:
Prostate cancer is the second most frequent malignancy (after lung cancer) in men
worldwide, counting 1,276,106 new cases and causing 358,989 deaths (3.8% of all deaths
caused by cancer in men.
The clinical prostate cancer detection rate of TRUS-guided needle biopsies is only
25-30%. while more than 50% of cancers that require definitive treatment remain
undetected during initial biopsies .
Clinical studies have shown that 75-80% of non-palpable carcinomas remain undetected
during initial prostate biopsies.
Multi-parametric prostate MRI has a high sensitivity for the detection of prostate
adenocarcinoma and has shown promise for targeted biopsy of lesions that may be missed on
routine systematic trans -rectal ultrasound (TRUS) biopsy .
The most recent European Association of Urology guidelines recommend MRI before prostate
biopsy for biopsy-naïve men with elevated PSA, the strength rating of the recommendation
is weak.
A systematic 12-core trans-rectal ultrasound-guided systematic biopsy (TRUS-SB) is still
carried out for biopsy-naïve men at present. However, the TRUS-SB technique has several
limitations, including over-diagnosis of clinically insignificant prostate cancer
(CISCa), under-diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cancer (CSCa), false negative
biopsy results and biopsy-related complications, such as bleeding and infections .
Targeted prostate biopsies from MRI-suspicious lesions have been shown to improve the
cancer detection rate (CDR) of CSCa compared with systematic TRUS-guided biopsies .
Currently, three biopsy techniques are used for TB from MRI-suspicious lesions: in-bore
MRI biopsies, cognitive magnetic resonance imaging trans-rectal ultrasound fusion
targeted biopsy (COG-TB) and software guided magnetic resonance imaging-ultrasound fusion
targeted biopsies (MRUS-TB). Inbore MRI biopsies that are carried out with an
MRI-compatible guidance device can target suspicious lesions accurately; however, such
biopsies are time-consuming and expensive .
In the COG-TB technique, a physician samples a location that has been visually estimated
using ultrasound and is considered to correspond to the location of a suspicious lesion
that was detected on MRI. However, when the suspicious lesion is completely invisible
(isoechoic or too small) on TRUS, the accuracy of such biopsies is likely reduced .
The accuracy of COG-TB might be influenced by multiple factors, including the alignment
of prostate landmarks, the physician's experience and so on. for these reasons, MRUS-TB
where software fuses the MRI images with real-time TRUS images to guide the operator to
biopsy the suspicious lesions is more commonly carried out; however, the optimal TB
method remains unclear.
