All-in-one prostate cancer staging with MRI
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial is testing whether a single MRI scan can replace multiple tests to stage prostate cancer. It is for people with more aggressive or advanced prostate cancer who are planning active treatment like surgery or radiation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Prostate cancer with a Gleason score of 4+3 or higher, or
- Tumor stage T3 (cancer has spread outside the prostate) at first diagnosis, or
- PSA level of 20 ng/mL or higher
- Planning to have active treatment such as prostate removal, radiation, or hormone therapy
- Life expectancy of at least 10 years
- No prior hormone therapy or radiation for prostate cancer
- No recent MRI in the last 6 weeks that already meets study standards

This trial tests whether a special PET/MRI scan can better see the extent of prostate cancer before surgery. It aims to help doctors plan more precise treatment.
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 uses a special kind of MRI to better “map” prostate cancer inside the prostate. Researchers compare the MRI results with the detailed tissue exam after prostate surgery to see how accurate the imaging is.
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 trial tests whether having repeated MRI scans can help find prostate cancer early in men who have never had a biopsy. It may be a good fit if you have a slightly elevated PSA and a suspicious spot on your first MRI.
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.
