About this study

Official title: Conducting Active Surveillance Without Prostate Biopsy for Patients With Low-risk Suspected Prostate Cancer Based on USTC Diagnostic Model and PSA Level: a Multicenter Prospective Study

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the role of the USTC diagnostic model in risk-adaptive strategies for biopsy decision-making in patients with low-risk suspected prostate cancer in order to reduce unnecessary biopsy. Based on the USTC diagnostic model (website: https://ustcprostatecancerprediction.shinyapps.io/dynnomapp/) and serum PSA levels, patients with low-risk suspected prostate cancer are enrolled and received active surveillance rather than biopsy. The main questions to be answered is:

  • The safety and feasibility of conducting biopsy-free active monitoring in patients with low-risk suspected prostate cancer accessed by the USTC diagnostic model and serum PSA levels.

Participants will be required to undergo serum PSA testing every 3 months, mpMRI testing every 6 months, and reassessment of the probability of developing prostate cancer using the USTC model every 3 months. Patients who do not meet the inclusion criteria and are at increased risk will no longer receive active surveillance and will be advised to undergo biopsy. Dynamic changes in PI-RADS score and biopsy results will also be recorded.

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 5 inclusion and 4 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 31 Jan 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 China. 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.

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Tao Tao (18856069828, taotao_urology@ustc.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

prostate cancer diagnostic free survival time (time frame: through study completion, an average of 2 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05940415, which also lists 11 linked publications.

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.
