Brief summary

Objectives: To establish if there are differences between an ultrasound-guided transrectal prostate biopsy (BPTE) and a transperineal prostatic biopsy (BPTP) with and without a multiparametric Magnetic Resonance (RMmp) in patients with clinical suspicion of prostate cancer (PC) to first prostatic biopsy in terms of: 1. Rate of detection and diagnosis of prostate cancer. 2. Aggressiveness of the detected tumors. 3. Association of the marker \[-2\] proPSA and the prostate cancer health index (PHI) and microRNAs for the diagnosis of tumors. 4. Adverse effects of the intervention and subjective perception of the patient: pain and degree of satisfaction, and impairment of quality of life. 5. Cost-effectiveness analysis of the different intervention options. Study Design: Randomized, single-blind prospective clinical study to compare four schemes: RMmp + BPTE vs. BPTE 12 cylinders vs RMmp + BPTP vs BPTP 12 cylinders. Study population: Patients with clinical suspicion of prostate cancer with PSA between 3-20 ng / mL and normal or abnormal rectal examination, candidates for a first prostate biopsy. Research techniques: BPTE standard of 12 cylinders compared to RMmp previous to BPTE vs BPTP of 12 cylinders compared to BPTP with previous RMmp.

Interventions

PROCEDUREMultiparametric magnetic resonance

MRI uses a powerful magnetic field, pulsed radiofrequency and a computer to create detailed images of organs, soft tissues, bones, and practically the rest of the internal structures of the body. MRI does not use ionizing radiation (X-rays).

Comparation between transrectal and transperineal prostatic biopsy with o without Magnetic Resonance6 monthsEstablish if there are differences between the transrectal and transperineal prostatic biopsy schemes in both cases with and without MRI, in patients with suspected clinical risk of prostate cancer (total PSA between 3 and 20 ng / mL, free PSA index / Total PSA less than 20% and normal or abnormal rectal examination) in terms of efficacy measured by the detection rate and tumor aggressiveness of the tumors detected, complication rates and cost analysis.
