The validation of a three-gene urine vesicle test that predicted high-grade prostate cancer at first biopsy better than standard clinical factors alone.
In independent validation in 519 patients, the urine exosome assay plus standard of care had an area under the curve of 0.73 (95% CI 0.68 to 0.77) against 0.63 for standard of care alone; 138 of 519 biopsies (27 per cent) would have been avoided, missing 5 per cent of patients with dominant pattern 4 high-risk Gleason 7 disease.
A urine RNA test can help some men skip a first prostate biopsy.
