MRI-Targeted Prostate Fusion Biopsy: What Are We Missing outside the Target? Implications for Treatment Planning. Curr Oncol 2024; 31:4133-4140. [PMID: 39057180 PMCID: PMC11276028 DOI: 10.3390/curroncol31070308] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2024] [Revised: 07/20/2024] [Accepted: 07/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the added diagnostic value of systematic biopsies (SBx) after magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-targeted biopsies (TBx) and the presence of prostate cancer (PCa) outside MRI targets, in a prospective, contemporary, multicentric series of fusion biopsy patients. Methods: We collected data on 962 consecutive patients who underwent fusion biopsy between 2022 and 2024. Prostate cancer was considered clinically significant (csPCa) in the case of grade ≥ 2. Median test and Fisher exact chi-square tests were used. To identify predictors of out-field positivity, univariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed. Results: Prostate cancer and csPCa were detected by TBx only in 56% and 50%, respectively, and by SBx only in 55% and 45%, respectively (p < 0.001). Prostate cancer and csPCa were diagnosed by TBx in 100 (10%) and 82 (8%) SBx-negative cases and by SBx in 86 (9%) and 54 (6%) TBx-negative cases (p < 0.001). Tumors outside MRI targets were found in 213 (33%) cases in the same lobe and 208 (32%) in the contralateral lobe, most of them being csPCa. Predictors of out-field contralateral PCa were positive DRE (HR 1.50, p 0.03), PSA density ≥ 0.15 (HR 2.20, p < 0.001), and PI-RADS score 5 (HR 2.04, p 0.01). Conclusions: Both TBx and SBx identify a non-negligible proportion of csPCa when the other modality is negative. SBx after TBx should always be considered given the risk of missing other csPCa foci within the prostate, especially in patients with positive DRE, PSA density ≥ 0.15, and PIRADS 5 lesions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Understanding the characteristics of multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) in patients from different racial/ethnic backgrounds is important for reducing the observed gaps in clinical outcomes. PURPOSE To investigate the diagnostic performance of mpMRI and quantitative MRI parameters of prostate cancer (PCa) in African American (AA) and matched White (W) men. STUDY TYPE Retrospective. SUBJECTS One hundred twenty-nine patients (43 AA, 86 W) with histologically proven PCa who underwent mpMRI before radical prostatectomy. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 3.0 T, T2-weighted turbo spin echo imaging, a single-shot spin-echo EPI sequence diffusion-weighted imaging, and a gradient echo sequence dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI with an ultrafast 3D spoiled gradient-echo sequence. ASSESSMENT The diagnostic performance of mpMRI in AA and W men was assessed using detection rates (DRs) and positive predictive values (PPVs) in zones defined by the PI-RADS v2.1 prostate sector map. Quantitative MRI parameters, including Ktrans and ve of clinically significant (cs) PCa (Gleason score ≥ 7) tumors were compared between AA and W sub-cohorts after matching age, prostate-specific antigen (PSA), and prostate volume. STATISTICAL TESTS Weighted Pearson's chi-square and Mann-Whitney U tests with a statistically significant level of 0.05 were used to examine differences in DR and PPV and to compare parameters between AA and matched W men, respectively. RESULTS A total number of 264 PCa lesions were identified in the study cohort. The PPVs in the peripheral zone (PZ) and posterior prostate of mpMRI for csPCa lesions were significantly higher in AA men than in matched W men (87.8% vs. 68.1% in PZ, and 89.3% vs. 69.6% in posterior prostate). The Ktrans of index csPCa lesions in AA men was significantly higher than in W men (0.25 ± 0.12 vs. 0.20 ± 0.08 min-1; P < 0.01). DATA CONCLUSION This study demonstrated race-related differences in the diagnostic performances and quantitative MRI measures of csPCa that were not reflected in age, PSA, and prostate volume. EVIDENCE LEVEL 3 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 2.

The effect of the combination of prostate-specific antigen derivatives with multiparametric prostate magnetic resonance imaging scores on the negative predictive value of it in grey zone patients. Actas Urol Esp 2024; 48:238-245. [PMID: 37838326 DOI: 10.1016/j.acuroe.2023.10.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2023] [Revised: 08/06/2023] [Accepted: 08/07/2023] [Indexed: 10/16/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To calculate the negative predictive value (NPV) of negative multiparametric prostate magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI), accepted as no lesions on images, when combined with prostate-specific antigen density (PSAD) and free/total prostate-specific antigen ratio (f/t PSA) in grey zone patients. METHODS 191 patients with PSA levels between 4-10 mg/mL and negative mpMRI were analyzed. The NPV of negative mpMRI was calculated according to a PSAD level of <0.15 ng/mL/mL, f/t PSA ratio of >0.15, and a combination of both. Patients were divided into three risk groups according to these two parameters, which were PSAD 0.01-0.07 ng/mL/mL and f/t PSA ratio ≥25 in a low-risk group, PSAD 0.08-0.15 ng/mL/mL, and f/t PSA ratio 0.15-0.24 in an intermediate-risk group and high-risk group, in which PSAD > 0.15 ng/mL/mL and f/t PSA ratio <15. RESULTS NPV of negative mpMRI was 92.6% for clinically significant prostate carcinoma (CSPCa). It increased to 97.5% in a low-risk group and decreased to 33.3% for CSPCa in a high-risk group. NPV of negative mpMRI results were so close when combined with PSAD < 0.15 ng/mL/mL and f/t PSA > 15. CONCLUSION f/t PSA ratio might also be used to increase the NPV of mpMRI, like PSAD. We advise not to avoid prostate biopsy when PSAD is >0.15 ng/mL/mL and the f/t PSA ratio is <0.15. However, we need randomized controlled studies with more patients to confirm our study.

Histomic and transcriptomic features of MRI-visible and invisible clinically significant prostate cancers are associated with prognosis. Int J Cancer 2024; 154:926-939.

Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly used to triage patients for prostate biopsy. However, 9% to 24% of clinically significant (cs) prostate cancers (PCas) are not visible in MRI. We aimed to identify histomic and transcriptomic determinants of MRI visibility and their association to metastasis, and PCa-specific death (PCSD). We studied 45 radical prostatectomy-treated patients with csPCa (grade group [GG]2-3), including 30 with MRI-visible and 15 with MRI-invisible lesions, and 18 men without PCa. First, histological composition was quantified. Next, transcriptomic profiling was performed using NanoString technology. MRI visibility-associated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and Reactome pathways were identified. MRI visibility was classified using publicly available genes in MSK-IMPACT and Decipher, Oncotype DX, and Prolaris. Finally, DEGs and clinical parameters were used to classify metastasis and PCSD in an external cohort, which included 76 patients with metastatic GG2-4 PCa, and 84 baseline-matched controls without progression. Luminal area was lower in MRI-visible than invisible lesions and low luminal area was associated with short metastasis-free and PCa-specific survival. We identified 67 DEGs, eight of which were associated with survival. Cell division, inflammation and transcriptional regulation pathways were upregulated in MRI-visible csPCas. Genes in Decipher, Oncotype DX and MSK-IMPACT performed well in classifying MRI visibility (AUC = 0.86-0.94). DEGs improved classification of metastasis (AUC = 0.69) and PCSD (AUC = 0.68) over clinical parameters. Our data reveals that MRI-visible csPCas harbor more aggressive histomic and transcriptomic features than MRI-invisible csPCas. Thus, targeted biopsy of visible lesions may be sufficient for risk stratification in patients with a positive MRI.

Int Urol Nephrol 2023; 55:2465-2471. [PMID: 37340208 PMCID: PMC10499967 DOI: 10.1007/s11255-023-03674-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 06/22/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE For transperineal (TP) prostate biopsy, target biopsy for visible lesions on MRI is important, but there is no consensus of the number of systemic biopsy cores. Our study aimed to confirm the diagnostic efficiency of 20-core systemic biopsy by comparison with 12-core using propensity score matching (PSM). METHODS The 494 patients conducted the naive TP biopsy were retrospectively analyzed. There were 293 patients with 12-core biopsy and 201 patients with 20-core biopsy. PSM was performed for minimizing confounding variables, and the established effects' value was analyzed for 'index-positive or negative' clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) (Index means PIRADS Score ≥ 3 on multiparametric prostate MRI). RESULTS At 12-core biopsy, there were 126 cases of prostate cancer (43.0%), and 97 cases of csPCa (33.1%). At 20-core biopsy, there were 91 cases (45.3%) and 63 cases (31.3%). After propensity score matching, for index-negative csPCa, the estimated odds ratio was 4.03 (95% CI 1.35-12.09, p value 0.0128), and for index-positive csPCa, the estimated odds ratio was 0.98 (95% CI 0.63-1.52, p value 0.9308). CONCLUSIONS The 20-core biopsy did not show a higher detection rate for csPCa in comparison with the 12-core biopsy. However, when MRI did not show a suspicious lesion, 20-core biopsy showed higher odd ratio in comparison with 12-core biopsy. Therefore, if there is a suspicious lesion in MRI, 20-core biopsy is excessive and 12-core biopsy is sufficient. Whereas if there is no suspicious lesion in MRI, it is better to proceed with 20-core biopsy.

Comparison of Prostate-Specific Antigen and Its Density and Prostate Health Index and Its Density for Detection of Prostate Cancer. Biomedicines 2023; 11:1912. [PMID: 37509551 PMCID: PMC10377372 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11071912] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2023] [Revised: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
As the incidence of prostate cancer (PCa) has increased, screening based on prostate-specific antigen (PSA) has become controversial due to the low specificity of PSA. Therefore, we investigated the diagnostic performance of prostate health index (PHI) density (PHID) for the detection of PCa and clinically significant PCa (csPCa) compared to PSA, PSA density (PSAD), and PHI as a triaging test. We retrospectively reviewed 306 men who underwent prostate biopsy for PSA levels of 2.5 to 10 ng/mL between January 2020 and April 2023. Of all cohorts, 86 (28.1%) and 48 (15.7%) men were diagnosed with PCa and csPCa, respectively. In ROC analysis, the highest AUC was identified for PHID (0.812), followed by PHI (0.791), PSAD (0.650), and PSA (0.571) for PCa. A similar trend was observed for csPCa: PHID (AUC 0.826), PHI (AUC 0.796), PSAD (AUC 0.671), and PSA (0.552). When the biopsy was restricted to men with a PHID ≥ 0.56, 26.5% of unnecessary biopsies could be avoided; however, 9.3% of PCa cases and one csPCa case (2.1%) remained undiagnosed. At approximately 90% sensitivity for csPCa, at the given cut-off values of PHI ≥ 36.4, and PHID ≥ 0.91, 48.7% and 49.3% of unnecessary biopsies could be avoided. In conclusion, PHID had a small advantage over PHI, about 3.6%, for the reduction in unnecessary biopsies for PCa. The PHID and PHI showed almost the same diagnostic performance for csPCa detection. PHID can be used as a triaging test in a clinical setting to pre-select the risk of PCa and csPCa.

Approaches and techniques used for diagnostic prostate biopsy have undergone considerable evolution over the past few decades: from the original finger-guided techniques to the latest MRI-directed strategies, from aspiration cytology to tissue core sampling, and from transrectal to transperineal approaches. In particular, increased adoption of transperineal biopsy approaches have led to reduced infectious complications and improved antibiotic stewardship. Furthermore, as image fusion has become integral, these novel techniques could be incorporated into prostate biopsy methods in the future, enabling 3D-ultrasonography fusion reconstruction, molecular targeting based on PET imaging and autonomous robotic-assisted biopsy.

Side-specific, Microultrasound-based Nomogram for the Prediction of Extracapsular Extension in Prostate Cancer. EUR UROL SUPPL 2022; 48:72-81. [PMID: 36743400 PMCID: PMC9895764 DOI: 10.1016/j.euros.2022.12.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 12/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Prediction of extracapsular extension (ECE) is essential to achieve a balance between oncologic resection and neural tissue preservation. Microultrasound (MUS) is an attractive alternative to multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) in the staging scenario. Objective To create a side-specific nomogram integrating clinicopathologic parameters and MUS findings to predict ipsilateral ECE and guide nerve sparing. Design setting and participants Prospective data were collected from consecutive patients who underwent robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy from June 2021 to May 2022 and had preoperative MUS and mpMRI. A total of 391 patients and 612 lobes were included in the analysis. Outcome measurements and statistical analysis ECE on surgical pathology was the primary outcome. Multivariate regression analyses were carried out to identify predictors for ECE. The resultant multivariable model's performance was visualized using the receiver-operating characteristic curve. A nomogram was developed based on the coefficients of the logit function for the MUS-based model. A decision curve analysis (DCA) was performed to assess clinical utility. Results and limitations The areas under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUCs) of the MUS-based model were 81.4% and 80.9% (95% confidence interval [CI] 75.6, 84.6) after internal validation. The AUC of the mpMRI-model was also 80.9% (95% CI 77.2, 85.7). The DCA demonstrated the net clinical benefit of the MUS-based nomogram and its superiority compared with MUS and MRI alone for detecting ECE. Limitations of our study included its sample size and moderate inter-reader agreement. Conclusions We developed a side-specific nomogram to predict ECE based on clinicopathologic variables and MUS findings. Its performance was comparable with that of a mpMRI-based model. External validation and prospective trials are required to corroborate our results. Patient summary The integration of clinical parameters and microultrasound can predict extracapsular extension with similar results to models based on magnetic resonance imaging findings. This can be useful for tailoring the preservation of nerves during surgery.

Abstract
Background To investigate the value of computed tomography (CT)-based radiomics model analysis in differentiating renal oncocytoma (RO) from renal cell carcinoma subtypes (chromophobe renal cell carcinoma, clear cell carcinoma) and predicting the expression of Cytokeratin 7 (CK7). Methods In this retrospective study, radiomics was applied for patients with RO, chRCC and ccRCC who underwent surgery between January 2013 and December 2019 comprised the training cohort, and the testing cohort was collected between January and October 2020. The corticomedullary (CMP) and nephrographic phases (NP) were manually segmented, and radiomics texture parameters were extracted. Support vector machine was generated from CMP and NP after feature selection. Shapley additive explanations were applied to interpret the radiomics features. A radiomics signature was built using the selected features from the two phases, and the radiomics nomogram was constructed by incorporating the radiomics features and clinical factors. Receiver operating characteristic curve was calculated to evaluate the above models in the two sets. Furthermore, Rad-score was used for correlation analysis with CK7. Results A total of 123 patients with RO, chRCC and ccRCC were analyzed in the training cohort and 57 patients in the testing cohort. Subsequently, 396 radiomics features were selected from each phase. The radiomics features combining two phases yielded the highest area under the curve values of 0.941 and 0.935 in the training and testing sets, respectively. The Pearson’s correlation coefficient was statistically significant between Rad-score and CK7. Conclusion We proposed a non-invasive and individualized CT-based radiomics nomogram to differentiation among RO, chRCC and ccRCC preoperatively and predict the immunohistochemical protein expression for accurate clinical diagnosis and treatment decision.

Identifying Risk Factors for MRI-Invisible Prostate Cancer in Patients Undergoing Transperineal Saturation Biopsy. Res Rep Urol 2021; 13:723-731. [PMID: 34611522 PMCID: PMC8486270 DOI: 10.2147/rru.s323823] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2021] [Accepted: 07/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Prostatic multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) has markedly improved the assessment of men with suspected prostate cancer (PCa). Nevertheless, as mpMRI exhibits a high negative predictive value, a negative MRI may represent a diagnostic dilemma. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of positive transperineal saturation biopsy in men who have negative mpMRI and to analyse the factors associated with positive biopsy in this scenario. Patients and Methods A retrospective study of men with normal mpMRI and suspicion of PCa who underwent saturation biopsy (≥20 cores) was carried out. A total of 580 patients underwent transperineal MRI/transrectal ultrasound fusion targeted biopsies or saturation prostate biopsies from January 2017 to September 2020. Of them, 73 had a pre-biopsy negative mpMRI (with Prostate Imaging – Reporting and Data System, PI-RADS, ≤2) and were included in this study. Demographics, clinical characteristics, data regarding biopsy results and potential predictive factors of positive saturation biopsy were collected. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent risk factors for MRI-invisible PCa. Results The detection rate of PCa with saturation biopsy in patients with negative MRI was 34/73 (46.58%). Out of 34 MRI-invisible prostate cancers detected, 12 (35.29%) were clinically significant PCa (csPCa) forms. Regarding factors of positive biopsy, in univariate analysis, the use of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors and free:total prostate-specific antigen (PSA) ratio were associated with the result of the saturation biopsy. In multivariate analysis, only an unfavourable free:total PSA ratio remained a risk factor (OR 11.03, CI95% 1.93–63.15, p=0.01). Furthermore, multivariate logistic analysis demonstrated that prostate volume >50mL significantly predicts the absence of csPCa on saturation biopsy (OR 0.11, 95% CI 0.01–0.94, p=0.04). Conclusion A free:total PSA ratio <20% is a risk factor for MRI-invisible PCa. Saturation biopsy could be considered in patients with suspected PCa, despite having a negative MRI.
