About

This prospectively designed retrospective clinical utility study will evaluate urologists' treatment recommendations before and after reviewing Decipher results for selected patient cases.

Full description

The clinical utility of Decipher will be evaluated at two time-points:

1. Post RP - within 6 months after surgery
2. PSA rise - defined as PSA detectable and rising on 2 or more subsequent determinations

Patient cases will be retrospectively selected from at least 5 sites. Participating urologists at each site will be asked to each identify a minimum of 10 to a maximum of 50 suitable cases retrospectively. The resulting cases will then be de-identified, aggregated and evenly randomly distributed among the participating urologists via a secure on-line survey platform . All study participants (ie: urologists) will be masked to the original actual treatment decision and patient outcome.

The design of this study is such that any participating urologist may or may not review a patient originating from their own clinical practice, but will not review a case they themselves identified. Patient cases will be de-identified and randomized amongst participating urologists . By the retrospective nature of this study, cases may be several years post-RP. It is not expected that that participation in this study will have any impact on actual clinical management of patients.

Participants will be asked to complete two web-based electronic Case Report Questionnaires (eCRQ):

1. Pre-Decipher: will collect information on their recommended treatment decision and their decision confidence based on the de-identified clinical and pathological information provided for each patient case.
2. Post-Decipher: will collect their treatment recommendation and decision confidence for each de-identified patient case in the presence of the Decipher test results.

Enrollment: 50 estimated patients

Sex: Female

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

• Pathological T3 stage of disease (i.e., ECE or SVI)
• Positive surgical margins, or
• Detectable PSA, defined as PSA detectable and rising on 2 or more subsequent determinations

Exclusion criteria

1. Metastatic Disease (M+) prior to surgery
2. Failure of PSA to nadir after surgery
3. Received any neo-adjuvant prostate cancer treatment before radical prostatectomy
4. Received any adjuvant chemotherapy
5. Required patient clinical data (Section 5.3) is not available for evaluation of eligibility criteria

7. Tissue specimen is inadequate for sampling and analysis

Trial design

50 participants in 1 patient group

Practicing urologic surgeons

Description:

* US board-certified * Practicing urologic surgeons * Performing at least 40 radical prostate surgeries annually Urologists will be excluded from participating in the study if: * They are unable to identify a the required number of eligible patient cases with available clinical data and tissue specimens; * They have spent less than 3 years in practice or perform less than 40 RP's per year All participants will be asked to complete a questionnaire based on a random selection of retroactively selected cases.

Other: Decipher Questionnaire
