Brief Summary

BARCODE 1 is a screening study designed to investigate the role of genetic profiling for targeting population prostate cancer screening. A pilot of 300 men were recruited aiming to inform the feasibil...

Detailed Description

The BARCODE 1 study aims to evaluate genetic profiling using the known \~170 prostate cancer (PrCa) risk single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as a means of offering targeted screening for PrCa in me...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Men aged 55 to 69 years.
  • Caucasian ethnicity.
  • WHO performance status 0-2.
  • Absence of any psychological, familial, sociological or geographical situation potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule.

Exclusion

  • Non-Caucasian ethnicity (including mixed race or Ashkenazi Jewish (excluded as these groups have different genetic risk profiles from those being studied).
  • Previous diagnosis of cancer with a life-expectancy of less than five years.
  • Negative prostate biopsy within one year before recruitment.
  • Previous diagnosis of prostate cancer.
  • Co-morbidities making prostate biopsy risk unacceptable (anticoagulants or antiplatelet medication including Warfarin, Clopidogrel, Apixaban, Dabigatran or other NOAC medications (Novel Oral Anti-Coagulant); poorly controlled diabetes, cardiovascular/respiratory disease, immunosuppressive medication or splenectomy).
  • Men with body mass index (BMI) 40 and above.
  • Men with BMI 35 and above plus other co-morbidities.
  • Contraindications to having an MRI (pacemakers, aneurysm clips, metallic cardiac valve/stent, Ventriculo-Peritoneal (VP) shunt, cochlear implant, neurotransmitter, metallic foreign bodies in eye(s), other metalwork, claustrophobia).
  • Any significant psychological conditions that may be worsened or exacerbated by participation in the study.
