What this Trial Is About
The goal of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to evaluate the efficacy of different prostate biopsy schemes in prostate cancer diagnosis among men with multiple mpMRI visible lesions, including combination of targeted and perilesional/regional biopsy (PB/RB) (TPLBx) and combination of systematic biopsy and targeted biopsy (CTSBx). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does TPLBx promote the accurate diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) among men with multiple mpMRI visible lesions? What's the value of TPLBx in improving the evaluation of prostate cancer when developing the treatment plan for patients with multiple mpMRI visible lesions? What's the value of TPLBx in avoiding the adverse pathological outcomes after the radical prostatectomy such as upgrade, upstage, capsule invasion, and positive surgical margin among patients with multiple mpMRI visible lesions? Researchers will compare the cancer detection rates of TPLBx and CTSBx to explore the efficacy of different prostate biopsy schemes. They will evaluate the occurrence rates of adverse pathological changes of different prostate biopsy schemes after the radical prostatectomy (RP). Participants will: Receive TPLBx or CTSBx.
