Zusammenfassung: | Purpose
To assess if PSMA PET quantitative parameters are associated with pathologic ISUP grade group (GG) and upgrading/downgrading.
Methods
PCa patients undergoing radical prostatectomy with or without pelvic lymph node dissection staged with preoperative PSMA PET at seven referral centres worldwide were evaluated. PSMA PET parameters which included SUV
max
, PSMA
volume
, and total PSMA accumulation (PSMA
total
) were collected. Multivariable logistic regression evaluated the association between PSMA PET quantified parameters and surgical ISUP GG. Decision-tree analysis was performed to identify discriminative thresholds for all three parameters related to the five ISUP GGs The ROC-derived AUC was used to determine whether the inclusion of PSMA quantified parameters improved the ability of multivariable models to predict ISUP GG ≥ 4.
Results
A total of 605 patients were included. Overall, 2%, 37%, 37%, 10% and 13% patients had pathologic ISUP GG1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, respectively. At multivariable analyses, all three parameters SUV
max
, PSMA
volume
and PSMA
total
were associated with GG ≥ 4 at surgical pathology after accounting for PSA and clinical T stage based on DRE, hospital and radioligand (all
p
20 and PSMA
total
0–12, 12–98 and > 98). PSMA
volume
was significantly associated with GG upgrading (OR 1.03 95%CI 1.01 – 1.05). In patients with biopsy GG1-3, PSMA
volume
≥ 2 was significantly associated with higher odds for upgrading to ISUP GG ≥ 4, compared to PSMA
volume
