Performance comparisons of GAPT-E to SOC at 90% fixed sensitivity in the training cohort – Cancer vs. No Cancer and High Grade Cancer (GS >=7) vs. GS<=6, No Cancer in the validation cohort

Cancer vs. No Cancer in the validation cohort
Sensitivity % (95% CI) Specificity % (95% CI) NPV % (95% CI) PPV% (95% CI)
*SOC 86.9 (79.0–92.7) 15.4 (5.86–30.5) 30.0 (11.9–54.3) 73.8 (65.2–81.2)
PT-E 54.2 (44.3–63.9) 69.2 (52.4–83.0) 35.5 (24.8–47.3) 82.9 (72.0–90.8)
GAPT-E 57.0 (47.1–66.5) 66.7 (44.6–76.6) 36.1 (25.1–48.3) 82.4 (71.8–90.3)
Improvement: GAPT-E vs. PT-E 2.5 0.6 −0.5
Improvement: GAPT-E vs. SOC 51.3 6.1 8.6
High Grade Cancer (GS >=7) vs. GS<=6, No Cancer in the validation cohort
Sensitivity % (95% CI) Specificity % (95% CI) NPV % (95% CI) PPV% (95% CI)
*SOC 84.3 (74.7–91.4) 17.5 (9.1–29.1) 45.8 (25.6–67.2) 57.4 (48.1–66.3)

Improvement: GAPT-E vs. PT-E 30.2 5.6 22.9
Improvement: GAPT-E vs. SOC 74.6 11.1 31.2

GAPT-E = urine EV GATA2, PCA3, and TMPRSS2-ERG; PT-E = urine EV PCA3, and TMPRSS2-ERG; SOC = standard of care; GS = Gleason score; NPV = negative predictive value; PPV = positive predictive value; CI = confidence interval

*

In the validation set SOC includes race, family history, PSA, and age
