摘要

Various risk classification systems (RCSs) are used globally to stratify newly diagnosed patients with prostate cancer (PCa) into prognostic groups. This study evaluated the predictive value of risk groups (low-, intermediate-, and high-risk) within four RCSs (EAU, NCCN, CPG, and CAPRA) for detecting metastases on primary PSMA-PET/CT. Metastases were observed in 35% (931/2.630) of patients. Prevalence among intermediate- and high-risk groups ranged from 12 to 46%. Two RCSs subdivided these groups: metastatic disease was found in 5.8%, 13%, 22%, and 62% for favorable intermediate-, unfavorable intermediate-, high-, and very-high-risk PCa (NCCN); and 6.9%, 13%, 21%, and 60% for the corresponding CPG groups. This study highlights the importance of detailed risk stratification, and PSMA-PET/CT for primary staging should be reserved for patients with unfavorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer or higher.
