* '''Use of MRI in prostate cancer | **Study design: cohort study | ||
**Population: 2103 males with an elevated PSA or abnormal DRE with a positive MRI underwent a targeted and systematic biopsy | |||
** | **Outcomes: | ||
***Primary outcomes: cancer detection rates by grade group for each biopsy method | |||
**Results | |||
***Use of MRI-targeted biopsy led to more diagnoses of cancers in grade groups 3, 4, and 5 than systematic biopsy and fewer cancers in grade group 1 | |||
***The addition of MRI-targeted biopsy to systematic biopsy led to 208 (9.9%) more prostate cancer diagnoses. Of these new diagnoses, 59 (28.4%) were clinically significant (grade group ≥3) disease. | |||
***MRI-targeted biopsy was responsible for upgrading of events in 458 patients (21.8%) when added to systematic biopsy | |||
***MRI-targeted biopsy alone without systematic biopsy would have led to no detection of cancers of grade group 2 or higher in 123 patients (5.8%) and no detection of cancers of grade group 3 or higher in 41 patients (1.9%) | |||
***Among the patients who underwent radical prostatectomy, upgrading on histopathological analysis after undergoing combined biopsy occurred 14% of patients. The rates of any upgrading or clinically significant upgrading on whole-mount histopathological analysis were substantially higher for systematic biopsy and MRI-targeted biopsy (30.9% and 8.7%, respectively) than for combined biopsy | |||
**Authors' interpretation: Among patients with MRI-visible lesions, combined biopsy led to more detection of all prostate cancers. However, MRI-targeted biopsy alone underestimated the histologic grade of some tumors. After radical prostatectomy, upgrades to grade group 3 or higher on histopathological analysis were substantially lower after combined biopsy. | |||

**Objective: Determine whether targeted-biopsy only (and avoid systematic) is adequate in patients with elevated PSA and prostate MRI | |||
**Population: Swedish males aged 50-60 living in Gothenburg, Sweden, without previous diagnosis of prostate cancer | |||
**Randomized to invited screening with PSA test vs. no invitation | |||
***If PSA > 3 ng/mL, patients underwent prostate MRI | |||
****Further randomized to | |||
*****Reference group: Systematic (regardless of MRI results) +/- targeted biopsy if MRI positive (PR3-5) vs. | |||
*****Experimental group: Targeted biopsy only if MRI positive (PR3-5) (experimental group); If PSA>10, patients underwent systematic biopsy, with or without targeted biopsy, regardless of MRI results | |||
******If low-grade prostate cancer (mainly with Gleason 3+3 cancer but also some with Gleason 3+4 cancer) detected by targeted biopsy in the experimental group, were invited to undergo follow-up systematic biopsy. The Gleason score was thus based on both targeted and systematic biopsies after a cancer diagnosis in both groups in order to avoid sampling bias due to different primary biopsy techniques. | |||
**Outcomes: | |||
***Primary outcome: detection of clinically insignificant prostate cancer, defined as a Gleason score of 3+3. | |||
***Secondary outcome: detection of clinically significant prostate cancer, defined as a Gleason score of 3+4 or higher | |||
**Results: | |||
***17,980 (47%) of those randomized to invitation to screening underwent PSA testing | |||
****7% had PSA > 3 ng/mL | |||
*****95% of patients with PSA > 3 ng/mL underwent MRI | |||
***Clinically insignificant prostate cancer: significantly more common in patients undergoing systematic +/- targeted biopsy compared to targeted biopsy only (1.2% vs. 0.6%) | |||
***Clinically significant prostate cancer: no significant difference (1.1% systematic +/- targeted vs. 0.9% targeted biopsy only) | |||
***10 patients in reference group found to have clinically significant prostate cancer on systematic only | |||
****9 with negative MRI, 1 with false-positive MRI | |||
*****All GG2, GG4 <5% in 6 patients | |||
******6 managed with AS | |||
***128 patients in experimental group with PSA <10 diagnosed with cancer by targeted biopsy only | |||
****72/128 (56%) had GG1 | |||
*****86% underwent systematic biopsy | |||
*****26% upgraded (all GG2 except 1 to 3+5) | |||
****Gleason 3+3 lesions that had been detected by systematic biopsy differed only in tumor extension from those that had been detected by targeted biopsy of suspicious lesions shown on MRI, with greater volume measured in tumors that were visible on MRI | |||
**Author's interpretation: The avoidance of systematic biopsy in favor of MRI-directed targeted biopsy for screening and early detection in persons with elevated PSA levels reduced the risk of overdiagnosis by half at the cost of delaying detection of intermediate-risk tumors in a small proportion of patients. | |||
