Validation of the Decipher prostate cancer classifier for predicting 10-year postoperative metastasis from analysis of diagnostic needle biopsy specimens.
2016
59 Background: Accurate riskstratification after diagnosis of prostate cancer (PCa) is key to optimal treatment decision-making. Decipher is an extensively validated genomic classifier of metastasis after radical prostatectomy (RP). Here, we evaluate its ability to predict metastasis from analysis of prostate needle biopsy diagnostic tumor tissue specimens in a cohort of intermediate risk PCa patients treated with RP. Methods: Fifty-seven patients with available diagnostic biopsy specimens were identified from a previously reported post-RP validation study of Decipher in a cohort of 169 patients treated at Cleveland Clinic. The core with at least 1mm tumor of the highest Gleason grade was sampled and subjected to whole transcriptome analysis. Decipher was calculated based on a locked random forest model. Cox multivariable (MVA) proportional hazards model and survival c-index were used to evaluate the performance of Decipher. Results: 61% of patients had biopsy Gleason score 6 and 67% of patients had NCCN ...
