Prostate Int 2023; 11:40-45. [PMID: 36910902 PMCID: PMC9995691 DOI: 10.1016/j.prnil.2022.08.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2022] [Revised: 08/24/2022] [Accepted: 08/28/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Background To demonstrate the clinical usefulness of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) computerized tomography (CT) for irreversible electroporation (IRE) in prostate cancer patients. Methods From January to May 2021, 17 men were diagnosed with localized prostate cancer through preoperative mpMRI and [18F] florastamin PSMA PET-CT imaging, followed by transperineal MRI-ultrasound fusion-guided biopsy. The patients underwent IRE focal therapy at the target lesions under general anesthesia. To evaluate the treatment outcome, serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels were followed up in the 1st, 3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th months, and mpMRI was taken in the 1st and 12th months, followed by MR fusion biopsy in the 12th month post-IRE. Results The mean age of the patients was 66.1 ± 9.3 with a median PSA of 7.5 ng/ml. After the treatment, PSA nadir was 4.06 ± 3.4, and 11 (64.7%) achieved decline of PSA more than 50% from the baseline. Rate of negative biopsy for prostate cancer is 88% (15/17) at 12 months MR fusion biopsy after the IRE treatment. Among the relapsed cases, 1 (6.9%) patient recurred at margin of treated area, and 1 (6.9%) patient was from outfield recurrence. When excluding initial four patients, none of the patients had cancer recur. Conclusions When treating with IRE focal therapy, PSMA-PET CT is a potentially valuable diagnostic approach for localizing prostate cancer; it supports the detection of lesions with conventional mpMRI, enabling to perform the procedure more completely.

Establishment of Prospective Registry of Active Surveillance for Prostate Cancer: The Korean Urological Oncology Society Database. World J Mens Health 2023; 41:110-118. [PMID: 35118841 PMCID: PMC9826918 DOI: 10.5534/wjmh.210163] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2021] [Revised: 10/25/2021] [Accepted: 10/31/2021] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To establish a prospective registry for the active surveillance (AS) of prostate cancer (PC) using the Korean Urological Oncology Society (KUOS) database and to present interim analysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The KUOS registry of AS for PC (KUOS-AS-PC) was organized in May 2019 and comprises multiple institutions nationwide. The eligibility criteria were as follows: patients with (1) pathologically proven PC; (2) pre-biopsy prostate-specific antigen (PSA) ≤20 ng/mL; (3) International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) grade 1 or 2 (no cribriform pattern 4); (4) clinical T stage ≤T2c; (5) positive core ratio ≤50%; and (6) maximal cancer involvement in the core ≤50%. Detailed longitudinal clinical information, including multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging and disease-specific outcomes, was recorded. RESULTS From May 2019 to June 2021, 296 patients were enrolled, and 284 were analyzed. The mean±standard deviation (SD) age at enrollment was 68.7±8.2 years. The median follow-up period was 11.2 months (5.9-16.8 mo). Majority of patients had pre-biopsy PSA ≤10 ng/mL (91.2%), PSA density <0.2 ng/mL² (79.7%), ISUP grade group 1 (94.4%), single positive core (65.7%), maximal cancer involvement in the core ≤20% (78.1%), and clinical T stage of T1c or lower (72.9%). Fifty-two (18.3%) discontinued AS for various reasons. Interventions included radical prostatectomy (80.8%), transurethral prostatectomy (5.8%), primary androgen deprivation therapy (5.8%), radiation (5.8%), and focal therapy (1.9%). The mean±SD time to intervention was 8.9±5.2 months. The reasons for discontinuation included pathologic reclassification (59.6%), patient preference (25.0%), and radiologic reclassification (9.6%). Two (4.8%) patients with pathologic Gleason score upgraded to ISUP grade group 4, no biochemical recurrence. CONCLUSIONS The KUOS established a successful prospective database of PC patients undergoing AS in Korea, named the KUOS-AS-PC registry.

Temporal changes of PIRADS scoring by radiologists and correlation to radical prostatectomy pathological outcomes. Prostate Int 2022; 10:188-193. [PMID: 36570646 PMCID: PMC9747593 DOI: 10.1016/j.prnil.2022.07.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2022] [Revised: 07/05/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To assess temporal improvement of prostate image reporting and data system (PIRADS) 3-5 lesion correlation to histopathologic findings from radical prostatectomy (RP) in prostate cancer (PCa). Materials and methods A total of 1481 patients who underwent RP for biopsy-proven PCa between 2015 and 2019 were divided into 14 groups of 100 sequential readings for the evaluation of histopathological correlation with PIRADS readings. Temporal trends of PIRADS distribution and predictive performance for RP pathology were evaluated to assess underlying changes in prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) interpretation by radiologists. Results PIRADS 4-5 lesions were significantly correlated with the increasing rates of Gleason Group (GG) upgrade (p = 0.044) and decreasing rate of GG downgrade (p = 0.016) over time. PIRADS ≥3 lesions read after median 2 years of experience were shown to independently predict intermediate-high-risk (GG ≥ 3) PCa (odds ratio 2.93, 95% confidence interval 1.00-8.54; P= 0.049) in RP pathology. Preoperative GG ≥ 3 biopsy lesions with PIRADS 4-5 lesions were significantly more susceptible to GG upgrade (P= 0.035) and GG ≥ 4 RP pathology (p = 0.003) in experienced reads, in contrast to insignificant findings in early readings (p = 0.588 and 0.248, respectively). Conclusion Preoperative MRI reports matched with RP pathology suggest an improved prediction of adverse pathology in PIRADS 3-5 lesions over time, suggesting a temporal change in PIRADS interpretation and predictive accuracy. Institutions with low volume experience should use caution in solely relying on MRI for predicting tumor characteristics. Future prospective trials and larger scale assessments are required to further validate our results.
