PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 year (visits # 1-8)

Population: Linear regression was applied to each subject's data with Log(PSA +1) as the outcome. Based on the fitted model, the change in PSA from visit #1 (baseline) to visit #8 (1 year) was calculated. This derived change score is summarized by group.

Change in PSA (ng/mL) from baseline to 1 year visit, which include the baseline through 1 year follow-up.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 year

Population: Each subject had 12 cores measured at each of the pre and post prostate biopsies. The variable summarized is the number of positive cores per subject.

Change in the number of positive cores per subject from the pre-study prostate biopsy to the repeat prostate biopsy following study participation.
