Background and study aims
Prostate cancer in men is very common. However, it usually develops slowly with the first signs of the disease being problems with urinating once the prostate is large enough to press against the urethra (the tube that takes urine from the bladder to the penis). If caught early, this form of cancer is very treatable and many countries have screening programmes to detect it. Early stage prostate cancer can be diagnosed using a blood test called the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test. An increased amount of PSA can, in some cases, happen due to prostate cancer. In Russia, the number of men with prostate cancer is rather high, is increasing and has a high mortality rate (high number of men dying from the disease). The high mortality rate is a result of a large number of cases not being diagnosed until the disease is at an advanced stage and has already spread to other parts of the body. A PSA test cannot be used to definitely detect the condition as it can also be raised due to, for example, non-cancerous growths and urinary tract diseases. However, Russia healthcare services do need a method to detect prostate cancer earlier. Here, we are going to look at how possible it is to have a PSA test screening programme in Russia, how well it would perform and whether it would be worth spending money on such a programme. We want to estimate how many men in a particular region have the disease, at what stage the cancer is detected and how useful a PSA test might be in screening for the disease, particularly for men aged 45-54 (as this age group is less likely to be included in PSA screening programmes). We also want to calculate how much a screening programme would cost and whether it would be worth the money involved, taking into account the relatively short male life expectancy in Russia.
Who can participate?
Men aged 45-65 in the Novohopersk area of the Voronezh Region (VO)
What does the study involve?
After gathering clinical information for all the participants (from the state medical compulsory insurance system), they are invited for a PSA test at a study centre. They then have a physical examination to check for prostate cancer and undergo a transrectal ultrasound scan (TRUS) to see how large the prostate gland is. In those cases where prostate cancer is found, the affected participants undergo further tests to see how far the cancer has progressed (pelvic MRI, bone scintigraphy and possible abdominal, peritoneal and thoracic CT scans).
What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
The major benefits to participants taking part in the study are a high quality medical examination and early detection of prostate cancer. The risks involve infections and other complications and side-effects of biopsy.
