Upright MRI to help screen for prostate cancer
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study checks whether an MRI done while you are in an upright position can help with prostate cancer screening. If you have been advised to get a prostate MRI, the researchers may also do an ultrasound-guided biopsy to confirm results.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a man who is at risk for prostate cancer and your doctor has advised a prostate MRI
- You are able and willing to go through the study steps, including an ultrasound-guided biopsy
- You can safely have general or spinal anesthesia
- You do not have a prostate cancer treatment history or a past prostate biopsy/surgery (except certain benign prostate procedures)
- Your recent bladder/prostate infection is not an issue (no urinary tract infection or acute prostatitis in the last 3 months)

This study checks whether a detailed MRI method can help find prostate cancer earlier in people considered high risk. You may be asked to get an MRI and help the team see if it works well as a screening test.
This study tests a new MRI platform to better identify prostate issues before a biopsy. It is for people with elevated PSA whose doctor is considering a biopsy.
This study tests whether new MRI imaging methods can better identify and grade prostate cancer in men with elevated PSA levels. You would get an MRI scan to help doctors see if cancer is present and how aggressive it might be.
This study enrolls men who may have prostate cancer but do not yet have a diagnosis. It uses prostate MRI along with blood and urine tests to see if specific signals can help identify prostate cancer sooner.
This trial studies special MRI images to learn how well they can find prostate cancer before treatment. It may help doctors choose better next steps during biopsy or during active surveillance.
This study uses repeat MRI scans to monitor men with an intermediate suspicion of prostate cancer, aiming to reduce unnecessary biopsies while still catching significant cancers early.
