{Abstract}: <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>This study aims to investigate whether the transrectal ultrasound-guided combined biopsy (CB) improves the detection rates of prostate cancer (PCa) and clinically significant PCa (csPCa) in biopsy-naïve patients. We also aimed to compare the Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS v2.1) score, ADC values, and PSA density (PSAd) in predicting csPCa by the combined prostate biopsy.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>This retrospective and single-center study included 389 biopsy-naïve patients with PSA level 4~20 ng/ml, of whom 197 underwent prebiopsy mpMRI of the prostate. The mpMRI-based scores (PI-RADS v2.1 scores and ADC values) and clinical parameters were collected and evaluated by logistic regression analyses. Multivariable models based on the mpMRI-based scores and clinical parameters were developed by the logistic regression analyses to forecast biopsy outcomes of CB in biopsy-naïve patients. The ROC curves measured by the AUC values, calibration plots, and DCA were performed to assess multivariable models.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>The CB can detect more csPCa compared with TRUSB (32.0% vs. 53%). The Spearman correlation revealed that Gleason scores of the prostate biopsy significantly correlated with PI-RADS scores and ADC values. The multivariate logistic regression confirmed that PI-RADS scores 4, 5, and prostate volume were important predictors of csPCa. The PI-RADS+ADC+PSAd (PAP) model had the highest AUCs of 0.913 for predicting csPCa in biopsy-naïve patients with PSA level 4~20 ng/ml. When the biopsy risk threshold of the PAP model was greater than or equal to 0.10, 51% of patients could avoid an unnecessary biopsy, and only 5% of patients with csPCa were missed.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>The prebiopsy mpMRI and the combined prostate biopsy have a high CDR of csPCa in biopsy-naïve patients. A multivariable model based on the mpMRI-based scores and PSAd could provide a reference for clinicians in forecasting biopsy outcomes in biopsy-naïve patients with PSA 4~20 ng/ml and make a more comprehensive assessment during the decision-making of the prostate biopsy.
