Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The ArteraAI Prostate test will be conducted on an archival prostate tumour sample for each participant. There is no mandatory time frame within which the sample must be collected relative to study entry. For each tumour sample, an archival haematoxylin and eosin stained slide will be selected for testing. The slide will be digitally scanned and then uploaded to the ArteraAI server for testing.

The ArteraAI Prostate test has been developed using multi-modal AI (MMAI) and was trained and validated on 5 phase III randomised controlled trials. It uses clinical variables of combined Gleason score, Primary Gleason Score, Secondary Gleason Score, clinical T-stage, baseline PSA, and age. The AI utilizes two separate machine learning pipelines, one for pathological image analysis and the other for joint clinical and image data analysis. The MMAI score for distant metastases (DM) and Prostate Cancer Specific Mortality (PCSM) are performed in two independent learning systems with different MMAI scores outputted.

The ArteraAI test will be run automatically. The test report generated will be reviewed by a certified pathologist and approved prior to being released to the study site.

Participants will receive radiotherapy as per standard of care irrespective of timing of ArteraAI testing. If ADT is recommended by the treating investigator prior to the test being completed, it is recommended that treatment with ADT does not commence until the result is received in case of a change in recommendation. However, if it is deemed clinically necessary, the ADT may begin prior to this. Commencement of ADT prior to receiving a test result will be recorded in the Case Report Form.

Following 5 years after the ArteraAI Prostate test has been completed, a sub-set of 100 participants will be randomly selected for follow-up. Disease control at 5 years will be assessed in this random subset of participants by reviewing Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) results that have been collected as part of standard of care. Participants are not required to undergo any additional procedures for this.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 334886 0
Characterize changes in shared treatment recommendations after ArteraAI testing regarding the use of short-course ADT in patients diagnosed with intermediate risk prostate cancer being treated with curative intent radiotherapy made by comparing pre-test and post-test treatment recommendations. Pre and Post Test recommendations will be collected in source documents that will be completed by the treating investigator.
Timepoint [1] 334886 0
Cumulative ArteraAI report data and documentation of recommendations will be reviewed at the conclusion of the study.
Secondary outcome [1] 422340 0
Comparison of pre and post-test costs including but not limited to testing and treatment related costs. Cost data will be sourced from an audit of clinic financial records.
Timepoint [1] 422340 0
To be calculated retrospectively following the end of study.
Secondary outcome [2] 422341 0
Biochemical disease control at 5 years defined by the Phoenix definition of nadir + 2ng/mL (blood Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) measurement)
Timepoint [2] 422341 0
Following completion of 5 year follow-up for subset of 100 participants
