Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for men who might have prostate cancer and are scheduled for a biopsy. Participants will help researchers find out if MRI scans are better than certain lab tests for detecting cancer during the initial biopsy.
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
I have suspected but undiagnosed prostate cancer
I am scheduled for a biopsy
You may not be able to join if
I cannot provide blood and urine samples
I cannot tolerate a prostate MRI
I have been diagnosed with prostate cancer before
I have had a prostate MRI unless it was done within the last year
I am participating in another clinical trial for prostate disease
I have had prostate surgery like TURP or TUNA
I have had tests like PCA3 or TMPRSS2:ERG for clinical purposes

The commercialization of MRI fusion biopsies has resulted in a dramatic increase in the use of MRI imaging for prostate cancer. How best to use MRI in the initial prostate biopsy setting given the availability of validated prostate cancer early detection markers is uncertain.This study will allow investigators to determine if prostate MRI is superior to validated panel of laboratory biomarkers (e.…
