The aim of the present study was to design and evaluate the value of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSA)-targeted manganese oxide-mesoporous silica nanoparticles (Mn-Msns) for the detection of prostate cancer.
The resulting area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) to predict csPCa was 0.76 for PI-RADS v2, 0.59 for age, and 0.67 for PSA density.
We identified 6.509 patients with prostate cancer who had received hormonal therapy with a post-hormonal therapy PSA ≥2ng/mL, 363 of whom had non-metastatic, castrate-resistant prostate cancer.
Risk-based patient selection for systematic biopsy in prostate cancer diagnosis has been adopted in daily clinical practice, either by clinical judgment and PSA testing, or using multivariate risk prediction tools.
In both groups there was a curative intention to treat localized high-risk prostate cancer (one or more of Gleason score 8-10, PSA 20-50 or stage T3), diagnosed between 1995-2010, follow-up at the end of 2014.
We identified the best cutoff values for prostate biopsy (0.25 for all prostate cancers and 0.20 for clinically significant prostate cancers) to determine whether to require prostate biopsy when the PSA level is in the diagnostic gray zone.
Moreover, among 143 patients with PCa who received radical prostatectomy (RP), the AUCs of LDN-PSA, LDN-PSAD, and PSAD levels (0.750, 0.812, and 0.769, respectively) detected in patients with a pathologic Gleason grade group ≥ 2 were significantly higher (P = .0170, P = .0028, and P = .0003, respectively) than that of PSA (0.578).
In this case report, a 67-year-old male with a history of prostate cancer status post prostatectomy presented for an F-18-fluciclovine PET/CT for a rising, clinically detectable PSA and indeterminate pelvic lymph nodes seen on multiparametric MRI of the prostate.
Among subjects in a clinical trial with a prior negative biopsy, total PSA, free-PSA ratio and PSA density have comparable diagnostic characteristics for PCa screening in low and normal testosterone men.
PSA level > 20 ng/mL and/or presence of the Gleason pattern 5 component on biopsy are predictive factors for early biochemical recurrence after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy in high-risk prostate cancer patients.
Patients with PSA low/Ki67 high tumors showed higher Gleason score, more advanced tumor stage, and higher risk of prostate cancer death compared to other patients.
An algorithm merges the data of PSA-IgM and serum total PSA dosage, prostate volume and patient's age, providing as output a numerical value that correlates with the risk of finding prostate cancer (PCa) at biopsy.
The Stockholm3 test discriminated better for GG ≥ 2 prostate cancer than PSA in combination with PSA-density AUC 8.9 (95% CI 82.7-89.2) and AUC 74.8 (95% CI 70.3-79.3).
In the original publication of the article, the categories of PSA levels among the subpopulation of men diagnosed with prostate cancer were published incorrectly in Table 4.
A model including PSA, clinical stage and maximum diameter of the index lesion on multiparametric MRI (mpMRI), grade group on targeted biopsy, and the presence of clinically significant PCa on concomitant systematic biopsy had an AUC of 86% and represented the basis for a coefficient-based nomogram.
We want to investigate whether MR-US fusion can improve the detection rates of clinically significant prostate cancer in patients with prior negative prostate biopsy with PSA level <10 ng/mL.
