Plasma and urine biomarker algorithm versus systematic biopsy for prostate cancer detection in elderly men: a randomised trial with early termination for futility

The biomarker-based algorithm-triage reduced biopsy numbers but also detected fewer -clinically significant prostate cancers. Quality of life was comparable between approaches.
