Brief summary

Multiparametric MRI of the prostate is recommended before each prostate biopsy. It identifies suspicious areas which will then be the subject of targeted biopsies. However, MRI suffers from low specificity and moderate inter-reader reproducibility, including with the use of the PI-RADS version 2.1 score. We are developing, within the framework of RHU PERFUSE, a computer-aided diagnosis system (CAD) for the detection of ISUP ≥2 cancers. This system has been trained on a database of patients who had prostate MRI and prostatectomy at the Hospices Civils de Lyon and performed well on a database of patients who had prostate MRI before biopsy at the Hopices civils de Lyon. However, one of the weaknesses of artificial intelligence systems is their low robustness when tested on MRI images from different manufacturers or institutions. The goal of the CHANGE study is to build a prospective multicenter cohort of patients who underwent prostate multiparametric MRI followed by systematic and targeted prostate biopsies. The cohort will be used for the final external validation of the CAD developed in PERFUSE.

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Evaluation of the non-inferiority of the AUC of the final CAD developed in the PERFUSE program for the detection of ISUP ≥2 cancers, as compared to that of the PI-RADSv2.1 score (human reading), at per-patient analysis.Through recruitment completion, an average of 2 yearsAUC of the final CAD and of the PI-RADS version 2.1 score for the detection of ISUP ≥2 cancers on systematic and targeted biopsies performed after MRI, at per-patient analysis. A priori-defined non-inferiority margin: 5 percentage points.

Estimation of the number of biopsies avoided and the number of ISUP cancers ≥2 missed for the following diagnostic strategies:Through recruitment completion, an average of 2 yearsNumber of biopsies avoided and number of ISUP cancers ≥2 missed according to the strategies described below: 1. PHI index then, if positive, MRI and biopsies regardless of the MRI result (MRI used only to guide targeted biopsies). 2. PHI index then, if positive, MRI then, if positive, targeted biopsies. 3. Biopsy only if MRI positive; no PHI index. 4. MRI then, if positive, PHI index then, if positive, targeted biopsies. 5. MRI then, if negative, PHI index; biopsy for patients with a positive MRI or with a negative MRI but a positive PHI index 6. PHI index and MRI for all patients; biopsy if positive PHI index AND positive MRI. 7. PHI index and MRI for all patients; biopsy if positive PHI OR positive MRI.
