Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This is a prospective observational multi-centre registry in which clinical data on consecutive patients with prostate cancer who undergo IRE procedure is collected. Data from site medical records as part of standard of care will be collected at each participating site over a 10-year period. Patients’ data to include, baseline visit (pre-IRE), peri-operative data and follow up for 10 years will be recorded.

Follow up data at each participating treatment site is collected according to the guidelines for focal therapy in prostate cancer and/or by discretion of each treating Urologist. Amendments to the standard of care are not required nor desirable. Deviation from current practices will be by the discretion of the treating urologist only and outcomes will be included in this registry as it is purely observational in nature.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 335354 0
To assess oncological outcomes defined by recurrence of prostate cancer at 1,3, 5, and 10 years after IRE.
Timepoint [1] 335354 0
Assessed by analysing data from MRI, PSMA PET scans and histopathology reports conducted as part of standard of care at 1,3, 5, and 10 years after IRE.

Statistical methods / analysis
All clinico-pathological and procedural variables will be described and analyzed. Continuous variables will be summarized with standard descriptive statistics including means, standard deviations, medians and ranges. Categorical variables will be summarized with frequencies. Univariate survival and disease free survival analyses will be performed using the Kaplan-Meier method.

For comparison of index tests to follow-up treatment response (mpMRI/PSMA-PET) and reference test (template biopsies) a 2x2 contingency table will be used to calculate the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of ROI on imaging. Multivariate linear regression analyses will be performed to evaluate the additional value of NADIR PSA (absolute value and density) to detect residual infield/outfield PCA. Statistical tests will be performed using SPSS/R/Graphpad and P<0.05 will be considered statistically significant.

Summary
Brief summary
This is a prospective observational multi-centre registry in which clinical data on consecutive patients with prostate cancer who undergo irreversible electroporation (IRE) procedure is collected.

Who is it for?
You may be eligible to join this study if you have been diagnosed with histologically confirmed prostate cancer and are scheduled for IRE Nanoknife procedure.

Study details
Patients with prostate cancer who undergo IRE procedure at participating clinics will have their medical data collected and collated into this clinical registry. Patients’ data to include baseline visit (pre-IRE) and peri-operative data.

Participants will then be followed-up at 1, 3, 5, and 10 years after IRE to determine oncological and functional outcomes. Follow up data at each participating treatment site is collected according to the guidelines for focal therapy in prostate cancer and/or by discretion of each treating Urologist. Amendments to the standard of care are not required nor desirable. Deviation from current practices will be by the discretion of the treating urologist only and outcomes will be included in this registry as it is purely observational in nature.

It is hoped that this research project will provide a better understanding of patient outcomes undergoing IRE procedure. .
