Abstract

Background: A prostate specific antigen density (PSAD) threshold of 0.15 ng/ml2 have been suggested for significant cancer detection in PI-RADS 3 lesions to avoid unnecessary magnetic resonance imaging targeted biopsy (MRI-TB) of these lesions. However, the performance of this threshold in African American (AA) patients is not well characterized. Methods: We analyzed our institutional data base of MRI-TB to identify the rate of significant prostate cancer (Pca) detection in PI-RADS3 lesions in AA patients stratified by PSAD threshold of < 0.15 vs. ≥0.15 ng/ml2 and lesion size of < 1 cm vs ≥ 1 cm. Significant prostate cancer was defined as Gleason grade group 2 or higher on MRI-TB of the PI-RADS 3 lesion. Results: Of 768 patients included in the database, 211 (27.5%) patients identified themselves as AAs. Mean age of AA patients was 63 years and mean PSAD was 0.21. Sixty nine (32.7%) AA patients were found to have PI-RADS 3 lesions. Mean PSAD of AA patients with PI-RADS 3 lesions was 0.21 ng/ml2 as well. Fifty percent of AA patients with PI-RADS 3 lesions had PSAD ≥0.15 ng/ml2. Significant Pca detection rate for AA patients with PI-RADS 3 lesions was 9% for PSAD of ≥ 0.15 vs. 0.03% percent for AA patients with PSAD < 0.15 ng/ml2 (OR 7.056, CI 1.017-167.9, P=0.04). Stratification by lesion size (< 1 cm vs. > 1 cm) resulted in missing 0% percentage of significant Pca when only AA patients with PSAD ≥ 0.15 ng/ml2 and lesion size ≥ 1 cm received MRI-TB. Conclusions: We report on the performance of a reported PSAD density threshold in detecting significant Pca in one of the largest series of AA patients receiving MRI-TB of the prostate. Our results have direct clinical implications when counseling AA patients with PI-RADS 3 lesion on whether they should undergo MRI-TB of such lesions.
