Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Diagnosis / Prognosis - PSMA PET/CT
Treatment: Surgery - Transperineal template prostate biopsy
Treatment: Surgery - Transperineal targeted prostate biopsy

Experimental: Experimental - Pelvic PSMA PET ± transperineal targeted prostate biopsy

Other: Control - No pelvic PSMA PET + transperineal template prostate biopsy


Diagnosis / Prognosis: PSMA PET/CT
PSMA PET/CT (limited to the pelvis)

Treatment: Surgery: Transperineal template prostate biopsy
Transperineal template prostate biopsies will be performed as per treating urologist's usual practice. No specific template for biopsy is prescribed for the purposes of the study. However, template sampling of the prostate is required, with a minimum of 12 cores, dependent on prostate volume. MRI will be available for any additional targeted biopsies required. Transperineal template biopsies must be labelled appropriately and sent for histopathological analysis.

Treatment: Surgery: Transperineal targeted prostate biopsy
If the PSMA PET/CT is normal, transperineal prostate biopsy would be omitted If the PSMA PET/CT is abnormal, transperineal prostate biopsies would be performed targeting the MRI (done prior to study) and PSMA PET/CT images
