A Single-arm, Multicenter Prospective Study to Evaluate the Diagnostic Performance of PROSTest in Men With PSA ≥ 3ng/ml Using Biopsy as the Sole Ground Truth
This prospective observational study will enroll men referred for prostate biopsy due to elevated PSA and/or abnormal digital rectal examination, with or without pre-biopsy MRI. Peripheral blood will be collected prior to biopsy for PROSTest analysis. Biopsy histopathology will serve as the reference standard. PROSTest results will be analyzed blinded to pathology.

Primary outcome measure(s)
Diagnostic accuracy of the PROSTest to detect prostate cancer at biopsy — Following completion of the study. Study is anticipated to enroll over a year and be completed within 18 months. Samples will be evaluated at study end. Primary endpoint is diagnostic accuracy of PROSTest for PCa detection. Assay is scored 0-100 and has a cut-off of 50 for normal. A blood sample with a PROSTest score \> or equal than 50 are predicted to be a prostate cancer. The expectation is that \>85% of individuals who are biopsy positive are also PROSTest-positive. We anticipate \~400 individuals will be biopsy positive. Conversely, the expectation is that \>75% of individuals who are biopsy negative will also be PROSTest-negative. We anticipate \~600 individuals will be biopsy negative. This will allow us to derive diagnostic metrics for the assay using biopsy-status as the gold standard.
