abstract = {Annual digital rectal examination (DRE) is recommended as a
stand-alone screening test for prostate cancer (PCa) in
Germany for 45+ yr olds. DRE diagnostic performance in men
as young as 45 yr old has not been proved by a screening
trial.To determine DRE diagnostic performance in a screening
trial.This analysis was conducted within the multicentric,
randomized PROBASE trial, which enrolled >46 000 men at age
45 to test risk-adapted prostate-specific antigen (PSA)
screening for PCa.(1) DRE was analyzed as a one-time,
stand-alone screening offer at age 45 in 6537 men in one arm
of the trial and (2) PCa detection by DRE was evaluated at
the time of PSA-screen-driven biopsies (N = 578).(1)
True-/false-positive detection rates of DRE as compared with
PSA screening and (2) DRE outcome at the time of a prostate
biopsy were evaluated.(1) A prospective analysis of 57 men
with suspicious DRE at age 45 revealed three PCa. Detection
rate by DRE was $0.05\%$ (three of 6537) as compared with a
four-fold higher rate by PSA screening (48 of 23 301,
$0.21\%).$ The true-positive detection rate by DRE relative
to screening by PSA was 0.22 $(95\%$ confidence interval
[CI] = [0.07-0.72]) and the false-positive detection rate by
DRE was 2.2 $(95\%$ CI = [1.50-3.17]). (2) Among
PSA-screen-detected PCa cases, $86\%$ had unsuspicious DRE
(sensitivity relative to PSA was $14\%),$ with the majority
of these tumors $(86\%)$ located in the potentially
accessible zones of the prostate as seen by magnetic
resonance imaging.The performance of stand-alone DRE to
screen for PCa is poor. DRE should not be recommended as a
PCa screening test in young men. Furthermore, DRE does not
improve the detection of PSA-screen-detected PCa.Our report
demonstrated the poor diagnostic performance of digital
rectal examination in the screening for prostate cancer in
young men.},
