Optimizing prostate biopsy for multiple MRI lesions
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study aims to find the best way to take tissue samples (biopsies) from the prostate when MRI shows more than one suspicious spot. It will help doctors know exactly where to biopsy to reduce false negatives and avoid missing cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old.
- You have never had a prostate biopsy before.
- Your MRI of the prostate shows more than one suspicious area (lesion).
- Your PSA level is less than 50 ng/mL.
- Your MRI was done within the last month and is of good quality.

This study is testing a new approach to prostate biopsy that takes samples from around a suspicious area seen on MRI. It aims to see if this method can better detect prostate cancer compared to standard biopsy.
This trial tests whether adding a targeted biopsy to a standard sextant biopsy improves the detection of prostate cancer. It is for men aged 45 to 85 who have a suspicious spot on an MRI of their prostate and have not had a biopsy before.
This study tests whether an artificial intelligence tool for MRI can improve the results of targeted prostate biopsy, compared to the usual method. It could help diagnose prostate cancer more accurately with fewer needles.
This study compares two ways of doing prostate biopsies (sampling tissue from the prostate) to see if one is better. It is for men who have a suspicious MRI finding on one side of the prostate and have not had a biopsy before. Participation may help determine which method is more accurate and could influence future care.
This trial tests whether repeat MRI scans can help monitor suspicious prostate areas and avoid unnecessary biopsies. It aims to improve detection of significant prostate cancer while reducing invasive procedures.
This study explores using repeated MRI scans to catch prostate cancer early in men who have never had a biopsy. If you have a suspicious spot on an MRI, you might be able to get careful monitoring without immediate biopsy, which could help avoid unnecessary procedures.
