Prostate Cancers Detected by Magnetic Resonance Imaging–Targeted Biopsies Have a Higher Percentage of Gleason Pattern 4 Component and Are Less Likely to Be Upgraded in Radical Prostatectomies

Abstract: - Magnetic resonance imaging-targeted biopsy may detect more aggressive prostate cancers and reduce the risk of Gleason upgrading in radical prostatectomy. This study supports a potential role for MRI-targeted biopsy in the workup of prostate cancer and inclusion of percentage of GP 4 in the prostate biopsy reports.

“…86 Gordetsky et al 87 showed that aggregate GS (and cancer extent) for targeted biopsies better predicted tumor volume and extraprostatic extension than grading (and extent) in the worst single core. Zhao et al 88 found that targeted biopsy GS's were less likely to be upgraded at prostatectomy.…”

“…Therefore, the preoperative GGG is a crucial variable included in PCa risk assessment tools, such as the D’Amico risk classification or cancer of the prostate risk assessment (CAPRA) score [ 28 , 29 , 30 ]. Nowadays, the absence of concordance between the biopsy and final histology reports represents one of the major concerns of PCa diagnosis and management due to the risk of mistreatment [ 37 , 38 ]. These aspects become particularly relevant in the context of AS, where a misinterpretation of GGG could defer the final curative treatment [ 39 ].…”

“…Porcaro et al measured an upgrading rate at final pathology of 66.7% within 237 low-risk PCa patients who underwent RARP at a single tertiary referral center in Verona (vs. an upgrading rate of 74.4% in our population) [ 38 ]. Additionally, Zhao et al examined 243 PCa patients diagnosed with standard biopsy or MRI-targeted biopsy [ 37 ]. Upgrading was observed in 100 and 75% of GGG 1 patients who underwent standard biopsy or MRI-targeted biopsy, respectively [ 28 ].…”

“…4 Further, target biopsy Gleason scores are less likely to be upgraded at prostatectomy compared with TRUS Gleason scores. 5 The PRECISION trial and the Canadian PRECISE trial, which compared MRI targeted biopsy vs TRUS biopsy in biopsy naïve men, demonstrated the benefit of MRI targeted biopsy in biopsy naïve patients, such that more clinically significant cancers were identified in the MRI targeted arm. 2,6 The ASIST trial also showed a reduction in upgrading at 2-year follow-up biopsies when patients had baseline MRI targeted biopsies.…”
