Clinical implementation of pre-biopsy magnetic resonance imaging pathways for the diagnosis of prostate cancer

Bas Israel et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the outcomes of pre-biopsy MRI pathways in biopsy-naive men with suspicion of prostate cancer in routine clinical practice. The results showed that pre-biopsy MRI can be used as a decision tool without compromising cancer detection rates and with a higher biopsy avoidance rate. There were comparable cancer detection and complication rates between TR- and TP-MRDB.

PI-RADS Committee Position on MRI Without Contrast Medium in Biopsy-Naive Men With Suspected Prostate Cancer: Narrative Review

Ivo G. Schoots et al.

Summary: The increasing demand for diagnostic prostate MRI has raised concerns about access to qualified MRI equipment and experienced medical personnel. Solutions should aim to improve operational efficiency while maintaining diagnostic performance and quality. Strategies could involve implementing MRI without contrast medium or using a risk-based approach for protocol selection.

EAU-EANM-ESTRO-ESUR-SIOG Guidelines on Prostate Cancer-2020 Update. Part 1: Screening, Diagnosis, and Local Treatment with Curative Intent

Nicolas Mottet et al.

Summary: The 2020 EAU-EANM-ESTRO-ESUR-SIOG guidelines on screening, diagnosis, and treatment of localized prostate cancer summarize the most recent recommendations for clinical practice, including risk-adapted strategies, medical imaging utilization, biopsy techniques, patient classification, and treatment options. Recommendations include consideration of moderate hypofractionation for intermediate-risk patients and a combination of local treatment with long-term hormonal therapy for cN1 PCa patients.

Population-Based Prostate Cancer Screening With Magnetic Resonance Imaging or Ultrasonography The IP1-PROSTAGRAM Study

David Eldred-Evans et al.

Summary: In this cohort study, MRI with a score of 4 or 5 as a positive test result detected more clinically significant prostate cancer cases compared to PSA testing alone at 3 ng/mL or higher, without increasing unnecessary biopsies or overdiagnosing clinically insignificant cancer. Ultrasonography did not show superior performance to PSA testing alone.

Comparison of Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging-Targeted Biopsy With Systematic Transrectal Ultrasonography Biopsy for Biopsy-Naive Men at Risk for Prostate Cancer A Phase 3 Randomized Clinical Trial

Laurence Klotz et al.

Summary: In men at risk for prostate cancer, magnetic resonance imaging followed by selected targeted biopsy is noninferior to initial systematic biopsy in detecting grade group 2 or greater cancers.

A comparison of prostate cancer prediction models in men undergoing both magnetic resonance imaging and transperineal biopsy: Are the models still relevant?

Paul Doan et al.

Summary: This study validated and compared the performance of the ERSPC-RC3/4, PBCG-RC, and van Leeuwen model in predicting high-grade prostate cancer in an Australian cohort undergoing TP biopsy. The ERSPC-RC3/4 demonstrated good discrimination and calibration, comparable to the van Leeuwen model. The van Leeuwen model showed the greatest net benefit from 10% risk onwards.

Prostate-specific Antigen Testing as Part of a Risk-Adapted Early Detection Strategy for Prostate Cancer: European Association of Urology Position and Recommendations for 2021

Hendrik Van Poppel et al.

Summary: The European Association of Urology in 2021 presented a risk-adapted strategy for early prostate cancer detection using PSA testing, risk calculators, and multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging. This approach aims to reduce overdiagnosis/overtreatment and improve quality of life by diagnosing significant cancer early.

Prostate cancer screening using a combination of risk-prediction, MRI, and targeted prostate biopsies (STHLM3-MRI): a prospective, population-based, randomised, open-label, non-inferiority trial

Tobias Nordstrom et al.

Summary: This study compared traditional screening methods for prostate cancer with a diagnostic strategy combining blood-based risk prediction and MRI-targeted biopsies. The use of the Stockholm3 test was found to be non-inferior to PSA for the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer, while also detecting a similar number of low-grade cancers. Additionally, the combination of Stockholm3 with MRI-targeted biopsies led to higher detection rates of significant cancers and lower rates of low-grade cancers compared to standard screening methods.

MRI-Targeted or Standard Biopsy in Prostate Cancer Screening

Martin Eklund et al.

Summary: In the context of organized prostate cancer screening, MRI with targeted and standard biopsy was shown to be noninferior to standard biopsy for detecting clinically significant prostate cancer, while also resulting in less detection of clinically insignificant cancer.

Summary: Researchers developed a risk calculator to predict clinically significant prostate cancer on targeted and systematic biopsy. With the increasing use of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging, the calculator is expected to be used in more men to provide accurate risk estimates.
