Full Description

This is an unblinded, randomized trial of TRUS biopsy-based active surveillance versus mpMRI-based active surveillance. Patients on the TRUS biopsy-based arm will undergo annual systematic biopsies without any MRI staging or guidance. Patients on the mpMRI- based arm will undergo annual mpMRI surveillance imaging, with image-guided targeted biopsies only as indicated by radiographic findings.
