What this study is about
In the sponsor’s own words, from the registry.
The study is a prospective, multi-center, single cohort study involving up to 10 urological clinics in the US. After provision of informed consent, up to 20 mL of whole blood will be collected from each subject. The samples will be blinded and sent to Labcorp for evaluation using the Proclarix® assay. If a prostate biopsy is performed, it will be performed according to standard clinical practice of the urologist (systematic, targeted, or combined biopsy with a transrectal or transperineal approach with or without prior magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)). A minimum of 10 cores is required if a systematic biopsy is performed. Histopathological examination of the biopsy specimen will be performed according to the established local practice. A csPCa is defined as ISUP Grade Group ≥2 detected on biopsy.
