Within the UK and Europe, despite being permitted if outcomes are prospectively collected, focal cryotherapy and High Intensity Focussed Ultrasound (HIFU) is only available in select centres. It is possible that not all patients suitable for focal therapy are referred for consideration for such treatment at select tertiary centres as the proportion of potentially suitable patients once diagnosed with localised prostate cancer is not widely understood. We determined how many patients diagnosed with localised prostate cancer following MRI and transperineal prostate biopsy in multiple prospective observational studies could be suitable for hemi-ablation. METHODS: Patients recruited into PICTURE trial, PROMIS trial, and RAPID pilot pathway were evaluated. Suitability was determined according to the Delphi Consensus criteria: PSA ≤20ng/ml, ≤rT3aN0, Gleason Grade Group (GGG) ≤3, if highest(GGG) was 1 then cancer length must be ≥6mm, and treatment pattern allowed up to unilateral hemi-ablation and spared at least 1 neurovascular bundle. Primary outcome allowed up to 5mm GGG1 to be untreated, secondary outcome allowed up to 5mm GGG1±1 core of 3+4 to remain untreated. Each study obtained local or external Research and Ethics approval. RESULTS: 200/330(61%) of patients recruited into PICTURE were diagnosed with ≤rT3aN0 prostate cancer and PSA ≤20ng/ml. 146/200(73%) had either GGG 2 or 3, or 1 with MCCL≥6mm, 3 had GGG>3, 51 had GGG13, 91 had GGG13, 103/612 had GGG1<6mm. 309/612(50%) had disease suitable for hemi-ablation, 41 of whom would have untreated GGG1<6mm disease. When allowing for 5mm GG1±1 core of 3+4 to remain untreated 313/612(51%) were suitable for hemi-ablation. CONCLUSIONS: Independent of varying incidence of prostate cancer within the cohorts evaluated, once diagnosed with localised disease between 5 and 6 patients out of 10 could be considered suitable for focal treatment, thus patients should be counselled and referred accordingly.
