? 2022 Elsevier B.V.Background and aims: PSA testing practice results in a large number of unnecessary prostate biopsies and the overdiagnosis of clinically insignificant prostate cancer (PCa). The aim of our study was to evaluate the value of PHI and PHID for the detection of PCa. Materials and methods: We measured tPSA, fPSA and p2PSA in 455 patients scheduled for biopsy, including 243 patients with PCa. D'Amico criteria were used to classify these patients in three groups related to risk of progression. Intermediate- and high-risk PCa were considered as aggressive PCa. Results: The best area under the curve (AUC) value obtained in the detection of aggressive PCa was achieved for PHI and PHID (0.766 and 0.760, respectively). We found a relationship of the performance of by these tests with the calculated prostate volume or the estimated prostate size by digital rectal exam, obtaining the higher AUC in patients with a small prostate. Thus, the AUC for PHI was 0,843 for patients with small calculated prostate volume and 0,817 for patients with small estimated prostate size. Conclusions: Our results underline that PHI and PHID outperforms the efficacy obtained with tPSA and %fPSA. Substantial differences in their value in relation to prostate volume were found.
