摘要：We aimed to evaluate the effect of 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor (5-ARI) treatment on prostate cancer (PCa) and clinically significant PCa (csPCa) detection in patients undergoing transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) fusion biopsy in the current era of multi-parametric MRI (mpMRI). We retrospectively reviewed our TRUS/MRI fusion biopsy database (n = 706). Eighty (11.3%) patients who had used 5-ARI for more than one year at the time of biopsy were stratified as 5-ARI group. Subsequently, we performed comparative analyses of 5-ARI and non-5-ARI groups. csPCa was defined by a Gleason score ≥3 + 4 in a single biopsy core. Chi-squared test was used to evaluate the performance of mpMRI in predicting PCa/csPCa between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the significant variables associated with PCa detection. There were no significant differences in PCa/csPCa detection rates between 5-ARI and non-5-ARI groups (all, P > 0.05). In multivariate logistic regression analyses for the evaluation of variables associated with csPCa detection, age (odds ratio [OR], 1.062; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.035-1.090; P < 0.001), pre-biopsy PSA (OR, 1.062; 95% CI, 1.034-1.090; P < 0.001), prostate volume on TRUS (OR, 0.956; 95% CI, 0.943-0.970, P < 0.001), and PI-RADsV2 category (OR, 5.528; 95% CI, 3.017-10.131; P < 0.001) were found to be significant predictors. However, 5-ARI had no significant association with PCa detection (P = 0.384). Conclusively, 5-ARI therapy did not adversely affect PCa/csPCa detection after TRUS/MRI fusion biopsy, which suggests that exposure to 5-ARI may not impair the performance of mpMRI.
