The test further classifies men with MEPCa into low-, intermediate- or high-risk disease. We compared the results of the miR Sentinel® PCC4 Test to systematic and MRI-guided core needle biopsy in men at risk for prostate cancer. METHODS: 763 biopsy naïve men in whom a prostate biopsy was indicated, were recruited. sncRNAs were isolated from urinary exosomes and interrogated by RT-qPCR on a custom designed OpenArray platform. RESULTS: The validation cohort consisted of 763 biopsy naïve patients undergoing systematic or systematic plus targeted biopsy. The molecular classification was compared to the Gleason Grade Group (GG) (Table 1). Sensitivity for the classification of {NPEPC or GG1} versus {GG2-5} was 75+18+4+105=203)/221=92.2% and the negative predictive value for absence of CS PCa was (221+64+12+123=420)/(238+200=420)= 96%. The apparent false positive rate for CS cancer was (34+35+32+22=(123)/(543) = 23%. 208 of the patients had discordant systematic and targeted biopsies. 29 of these had a negative systematic biopsy and a positive targeted biopsy. The molecular test predicted the targeted biopsy outcome in 27/29=93.1% overall, and in 14/15 (93%) of the cases with clinically significant cancer. In the 18 patients with positive systematic and negative MRI targeted biopsies, the test result predicted the positive biopsy in 100%. CONCLUSIONS: The miR Sentinel Test offers an accurate non-invasive means to accurately identify the presence or absence of prostate cancer and classify risk status predict pathological grade on biopsy. The high predictive accuracy of the test in patients whose systematic and targeted biopsy were discordant suggests that the 23% discordance between negative biopsy results and positive Sentinel Test results was in most cases due to false negative biopsies.
