Who can safely evade a magnetic resonance imaging fusion-targeted biopsy (MRIFTB) for prostate imaging reporting and data system (PI-RADS) 3 lesion?
OBJECTIVE
To identify patients who can safely evade the magnetic resonance imaging fusion-targeted biopsy (MRIFTB) for prostate imaging reporting and data system (PI-RADS) 3 lesion.


MATERIALS AND METHODS
Overall, 755 men with PI-RADS 3-5 lesions who underwent MRIFTB were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to determine significant predictors for clinically significant prostate cancer (CSPCa), defined as Gleason grade group ≥ II. Detection rates and negative predictive values of CSPCa were estimated according to various clinical settings.


RESULTS
Median age, prostate-specific antigen (PSA), and PSA density of patients were 66.0 years, 7.39 ng/mL, and 0.19 ng/mL, respectively. Overall detection rates of CSPCa according to PI-RADS 3 (n = 347), 4 (n = 260), and 5 (n = 148) lesions were 15.0%, 30.4%, and 80.4%, respectively. The negative predictive value (NPV) of PI-RADS 3 lesion on MRI was 15.0%. On multivariate analysis, age [≥ 65 years, odds ratio (OR) = 0.427], PSA density (≥ 0.20 ng/mL2, OR = 0.234), prior negative biopsy history (OR = 2.231), and PI-RADS score (4, OR = 0.427; 5, OR = 0.071) were independent predictors for the absence of CSPCa by MRIFTB. When assessed according to various conditions, NPVs of PI-RADS 3 lesions were relatively high in subgroups with low PSA density (< 0.20 ng/mL2) regardless of age or prior biopsy history (NPV range 91.1-91.9%). Contrarily, NPVs in subgroups with high PSA density were relatively low and varied according to age or prior biopsy history groups (NPV range 50.0-86.8%).


CONCLUSIONS
Men with the PI-RADS 3 lesion and low PSA density might safely evade the MRIFTB, regardless of age or prior biopsy history.
