Study population: Patients with clinical suspicion of prostate cancer

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with clinical suspicion of prostate cancer (increased PSA and/or abnormality on digital rectal examination) who underwent a diagnostic workup including mpMRI and prostate biopsies according to national recommendations: in case of normal mpMRI (PI-RADS < 3) 12 systematic samples; in case of pathological mpMRI (PI-RADS ≥3) 12 systematic samples associated with targeted samples (n= 2 to 4) by cognitive fusion, or image fusion software.
  • Patients with clinical suspicion of prostate cancer (increased PSA level and/or abnormality on digital rectal examination) who should receive a diagnostic workup including mpMRI and prostate biopsies according to national recommendations: in case of normal mpMRI (PI-RADS < 3) 12 systematic samples; in case of pathological mpMRI (PI-RADS ≥3) 12 systematic samples associated with targeted samples (n= 2 to 4) by cognitive fusion, or image fusion software.

Who cannot join

  • Patients with histologically proven prostate cancer and/or treatment for prostate cancer prior to the diagnostic workup
  • Prospective substudy

About this study

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in France and the 3rd most common cancer death in humans. The introduction of pre-biopsy MRI has considerably improved the quality of prostate cancer (PCa) diagnosis by increasing the detection of clinically significant PCa , and by reducing the number of unnecessary biopsies.However the diagnostic performance of Prostate MRI is highly dependent on reader experience that limits the population based delivery of high quality multiparametricMRI (mpMRI) driven PCa diagnosis. The main objective of this study is the development and the test of diagnostic accuracy of an AI algorithm for the detection of cancerous prostatic lesions from mpMRI images.

The secondary objective is the development and the test of diagnostic accuracy of an AI algorithm to predict tumor aggressiveness from mpMRI images.

Read the detailed description

This is a study combining :

  1. Firstly a sub-study with a multicentric retrospective sample of 700 patients from the databases of AP-HP, CHU de Lyon and CHU de Lille for training and validation of algorithms. The historical depth may be up to 96 months (8 years)
  2. A second sub-study with a multicentric prospective sample of 550 patients (test-set) associating AP-HP (CHU Pitié, Tenon, Bicêtre, Necker), CHU Lille, CHU Lyon, CHU Bordeaux and CHU Strasbourg to test the performance of algorithms Data will be collected retrospectively (training phase - validation of the algorithm) and prospectively (testing phase of the algorithm) from the medical records of each of the centres for patients corresponding to the inclusion and exclusion criteria mentioned above.

Methodology :

  1. Retrospective phase mpMRI images chained to histological (prostate biopsy data), biological (PSA) and demographic (age) data will be used for supervised learning during the training and validation phases. Thus, the aggressiveness scores will rely on a matching between mpMRI images and the results of targeted biopsies in addition to standard biopsies
  2. Prospective phase For the performance measurement, a test set of 550 prospectively collected images will be used, of which 150 will be from the same centers, and 400 from 3 other clinical centers (CHU Strasbourg, APHP Bicêtre and Necker-HEGP and CHU Bordeaux).

The algorithms developed in the retrospective phase will be applied by Inria to the prospective data, without knowledge of the PI-RADS score or the aggressiveness. The performance of each algorithm will then be evaluated, under the responsibility of an independent unit,by its sensitivity and specificity with their IC95%. The main analysis will be conducted by patient (presence of at least one lesion with a PI-RADS score ≥3; presence of at least one lesion considered aggressive (defined by the presence of a histological Gleason score grade 4 up to 6 months after the mpMRI). Secondary analyses will be conducted by lesion and by prostate lobe.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Retrospective groupRetrospective group: 700 patients from the databases of the AP-HP, the Lyon University Hospital and the Lille University Hospital for training and validation of the algorithms.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Performance (sensitivity and specificity) of the algorithm to predict the standardized radiological PI-RADS

    The primary endpoint will be the performance (sensitivity and specificity) of the algorithm to predict the standardized radiological PI-RADS score for each patient: presence of at least one lesion considered significant (internationally standardized score between 1 and 5 and with a threshold of positivity at 3 or more).

    Measured: Inclusion

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Performance (sensitivity and specificity) of the algorithm in predicting tumor aggressiveness

    The secondary endpoint will be the performance (sensitivity and specificity) of the algorithm in predicting tumor aggressiveness.Gold standard is defined, for each patient, on the histological analysis of the first series of biopsy samples taken in the course of care,up to 6 months from the mpMRI, as the presence of at least one lesion with grade 4 cells according to the characterization by the international histoprognostic score ISUP.Patients without biopsy in the 6 months will be considered as having non aggressive tumor.

    Measured: Inclusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Detection and Characterization of Prostate Cancer Based on Artificial Intelligence, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Raphaële Renard-Penna, MD, PhD (01 42 17 82 25, Raphaele.renardpenna@aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Performance (sensitivity and specificity) of the algorithm to predict the standardized radiological PI-RADS (time frame: Inclusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 May 2024.
