Prostate Cancer Detection Using the Stockholm3 Test and MR/Fusion Biopsies
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
MRI/Fusion biopsies: The intervention in the experimental arm is an MRI with targeted biopsies using fusion technique to prostate lesions. Repeat screening is offered after 2-6 years on an individualised basis.
Systematic biopsies: The intervention in the control arm is traditional systematic biopsies of the prostate.
Study summary
The STHLM3-MRI trial is a study comparing traditional prostate cancer detection using PSA and systematic biopsies with the improved pipeline for prostate cancer detection using the STHLM3 test and targeted biopsies in a screening context.
The study includes individualised repeat invitations for re-screening to participants not diagnosed with prostate cancer.

- Number of detected cancers characterized as Gleason Score ≥7 on evaluation of biopsy specimen — At 2 months after completing first screening round (included biopsy procedure). At two months after completing repeat screening rounds ( year 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15).
