About this trial
This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
Biopsy-documented adenocarcinoma of the prostate which is intermediate or high risk, defined as possessing one or more of the following features:
- Gleason >= 7
- > 50% biopsy cores +
- Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) >= 10
- Interested in undergoing a radical prostatectomy as definitive management for prostate cancer
No clinical or radiographic evidence for distant metastatic disease
- In subjects with PSA < 20 no radiographic staging is required in the absence of clinical symptoms for distant metastatic disease; for those with PSA > 20, a bone scan must document lack of concern for bone involvement
Exclusion Criteria:
- Ineligible for surgery due to cardiac, pulmonary, or other major comorbidity factor
- History of claustrophobia
- Pacemaker or other implanted metal objects which would make subject ineligible for MRI, per standard criteria
- Unable to give written informed consent
Sites / Locations
- USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center
Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Label
Diagnostic (diffusion-weighted MRI)
Arm Description
Patients undergo diffusion-weighted MRI of the pelvis.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Number of patients found to have extracapsular extension and seminal vesicle involvement using Diffusion-Weighted MRI
Patients will be imaged using diffusion-weighted MR. Findings will be correlated with histopathologic findings at biopsy and/or prostatectomy.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This pilot clinical trial studies how well diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) works in staging patients with prostate cancer that has not spread to nearby lymph nodes or other parts of the body. New imaging techniques, such as diffusion-weighted MRI, may be a less invasive way of predicting the stage and grade of prostate cancer.
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the sensitivity and specificity of diffusion-weighted MRI for pathologic T3 stage prostate cancer using a 3 Tesla (3T) magnet with a surface coil.
OUTLINE:
Patients undergo diffusion-weighted MRI of the pelvis.
