Summary
This trial aims to test a screening method for detecting aggressive prostate cancer. It combines genetic data to assess cancer risk with MRI scans to identify men with high-grade cancer. The trial seeks to determine if this
Who is the study for?
This trial is for men being screened for prostate cancer. It's especially focused on those who might have a higher genetic risk, determined by their Polygenic Risk Score (PRS). Participants will undergo an mpMRI scan and a PSA blood test to assess their cancer risk and need regular follow-ups based on these results.
What is being tested?
The study is testing if combining genetic data with mpMRI can better identify serious prostate cancers that could be life-threatening. It also explores the best age for MRI screening and if deep learning improves predictions when genetic risks are known.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-invasive procedures like MRI scans and blood tests, side effects are minimal but may include discomfort during the MRI or minor bruising from blood draws.

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Low Risk CohortExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants are placed into their arm after appropriate genetic testing has been conducted to determine their risk.
Group II: Intermediate Risk CohortExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants are placed into their arm after appropriate genetic testing has been conducted to determine their risk.
Group III: High Risk CohortExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants are placed into their arm after appropriate genetic testing has been conducted to determine their risk.
