Diagnosing Clinically Significant Prostate Cancer In African American and White Men With Elevated PSA
United States288 participantsStarted 2017-09-25
Plain-language summary
This randomized phase II trial studies how well systematic random biopsy or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-ultrasound image (US) fusion biopsy work in diagnosing prostate cancer in patients with elevated prostate specific antigen. Systematic random biopsy and MRI-US fusion biopsy may work better in improving the accuracy of prostate cancer detection.
