    Abstract Introduction: To evaluate the use of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a predictor of positive margins after radical prostatectomy (RP). This is important as such patients may benefit from postoperative radiotherapy. With the advent of preoperative MRI, we posited that pelvimetry could predict positive margins after RP in patients with less-than ideal pelvic dimensions undergoing robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery.
    Materials and methods: After IRB approval, data from patients undergoing RP at our center between 1/1/2018 and 12/31/2019 (n = 314) who had undergone prior prostate MRI imaging (n = 102) were analyzed. All RPs were performed using robotic-assisted laparoscopic technique. Data from the cancer center data warehouse were retrieved, to include postoperative T-stage, gland size, responsible surgeon, PSA, patient body mass index, and surgical margin status. These data were analyzed with corresponding pelvimetry data from 91 preoperative scans with complete data and imaging.
    Results: On multivariable analysis, pathologic T-stage (p = 0.004), anteroposterior pelvic outlet (p = 0.015) and pelvic depth (length of the pubic symphysis; p = 0.019) were all statistically correlated with positive surgical margins.
    Conclusions: With the widespread use of MRI in the initial staging of prostate cancer, automated radiomic analysis could augment the critical data already being accumulated in terms of seminal vesical involvement, extracapsular extension, and suspicious lymph nodes as risk factors for postoperative salvage radiation. Such automated data could help screen patients preoperatively for robotic RP.

    Abstract Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common cancer in American men. Additionally, African American Men (AAM) are 60% more likely to be diagnosed with PCa and 2.4 times more likely to die from this disease compared to Caucasian men (CM). To date, there are few strategies effective for chemoprevention for men with localized PCa. There is thus a need to continue to evaluate agents and strategies for chemoprevention of prostate cancer. Epidemiological, laboratory and early phase clinical trials have shown that the isoflavones modulates several biomarkers implicated in prostate carcinogenesis. The goal of this phase II randomized clinical trial was to explore the comparative effectiveness and safety of 40 mgs of aglycone isoflavones in AAM and CM with localized PCa in the pre-surgical period prior to radical prostatectomy. Thirty six participants (25 CM, 6AAM) were randomized to the isoflavone arm and 34 (25 CM, 7AAM) to the placebo arm, with 62 completing the intervention. Results indicated that isoflavones at a dose of 20 mgs BID for 3-6 weeks was well tolerated but did not reduce tissue markers of proliferation. A significant reduction in serum PSA was observed with isoflavone supplementation in CM compared to the placebo arm, but not observed in AAM. We observed no changes in serum steroid hormones with isoflavone supplementation. In AAM, a reduction in serum IGF-1 concentrations and IGF1: IGFBP-3 ratios were observed with isoflavone supplementation. Well-powered studies for longer duration of intervention may inform future trials with isoflavones, for chemoprevention of PCa.

    Abstract Histopathological classification in prostate cancer remains a challenge with high dependence on the expert practitioner. We develop a deep learning (DL) model to identify the most prominent Gleason pattern in a highly curated data cohort and validate it on an independent dataset. The histology images are partitioned in tiles (14,509) and are curated by an expert to identify individual glandular structures with assigned primary Gleason pattern grades. We use transfer learning and fine-tuning approaches to compare several deep neural network architectures that are trained on a corpus of camera images (ImageNet) and tuned with histology examples to be context appropriate for histopathological discrimination with small samples. In our study, the best DL network is able to discriminate cancer grade (GS3/4) from benign with an accuracy of 91%, F
