๐ŸŸข Recruiting Interventional Protocol ๐Ÿ“Š Observational Clinical Research Sponsor: Sequenom, Inc.

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The study is a prospective, multi-center, single cohort study involving up to 10 urological clinics in the US. After provision of informed consent and prior to the scheduled prostate biopsy (โ‰ค30 days), 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 Proclarixยฎ assay. Prostate biopsy 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 are required. Histopathological examination of the biopsy specimen will be performed according to the established local practice. A csPCa is defined as ISUP Grade Group โ‰ฅ2 detected on biopsy. The assay results will be compared to the biopsy results.
