Summary

The goal of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to evaluate the efficacy of different prostate biopsy schemes in prostate cancer diagnosis among men with multiple mpMRI visible lesions, including combination of targeted and perilesional/regional biopsy (PB/RB) (TPLBx) and combination of systematic biopsy and targeted biopsy (CTSBx). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does TPLBx promote the accurate diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) among men with multiple mpMRI visible lesions? What's the value of TPLBx in improving the evaluation of prostate cancer when developing the treatment plan for patients with multiple mpMRI visible lesions? What's the value of TPLBx in avoiding the adverse pathological outcomes after the radical prostatectomy such as upgrade, upstage, capsule invasion, and positive surgical margin among patients with multiple mpMRI visible lesions? Researchers will compare the cancer detection rates of TPLBx and CTSBx to explore the efficacy of different prostate biopsy schemes. They will evaluate the occurrence rates of adverse pathological changes of different prostate biopsy schemes after the radical prostatectomy (RP). Participants will: Receive TPLBx or CTSBx.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is comparing different biopsy strategies for men who have multiple suspicious areas visible on a prostate MRI scan, to figure out the most accurate and least invasive way to diagnose prostate cancer when more than one area looks abnormal. **You may be eligible if...** - You are between 18 and 85 years old - You have never had a prostate biopsy before - You have multiple suspicious areas on a high-quality prostate MRI scan - Your PSA (prostate-specific antigen) blood test is less than 50 ng/mL **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have a contraindication to MRI (e.g., a pacemaker or certain metal implants) - Your MRI scan is of poor quality - The time between your MRI and biopsy is more than one month - You are on blood thinners or have bleeding disorders that would make biopsy unsafe Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

PROCEDURETargeted and perilesional biopsy (TPLBx)

The biopsy procedure is conducted by highly skilled and experienced urologists who specialize in performing prostate biopsies. A single dose of prophylactic antibiotics (usually cephalosporins) is routinely administered following a test dose 30 min before the procedure. Each patient is placed in the lithotomy position. Povidone-iodine is routinely used to clean perineum before the biopsy. The MRI-TRUS biopsy system is iFUSS (image fusion surgical system, Carbon Med), consisting of a 3D reconstruction and planning software (Carbon Med) and a bi-planar TRUS probe (ECL8-4-B, Carbon Med). Color Doppler examination is performed from the base to the apex. For each predefined mpMRI suspicious lesion, two-core TBs are obtained within the ROI, followed by ring-distributed four cores within a 10-15 mm radius around the ROI. The location of these cores depends on the shape and location of the suspicious lesion.

PROCEDURECombined targeted and systematic biopsy (CTSBx)

The biopsy procedure is conducted by highly skilled and experienced urologists who specialize in performing prostate biopsies. A single dose of prophylactic antibiotics (usually cephalosporins) is routinely administered following a test dose 30 min before the procedure. Each patient is placed in the lithotomy position. Povidone-iodine is routinely used to clean perineum before the biopsy. The MRI-TRUS biopsy system is iFUSS (image fusion surgical system, Carbon Med), consisting of a 3D reconstruction and planning software (Carbon Med) and a bi-planar TRUS probe (ECL8-4-B, Carbon Med). Color Doppler examination is performed from the base to the apex. Two-core TBs from the lesion were performed within each predefined mpMRI suspicious lesion, followed by fore-zone 12-core biopsy.
