Brief Summary: RATIONALE Diagnostic procedures such as ultrasound-guided biopsy may help find prostate cancer Dutasteride may improve the ability of ultrasound-guided biopsy to find prostate cancer It is not yet known whether dutasteride followed by ultrasound-guided biopsy is more effective than a placebo followed by ultrasound-guided biopsy in finding prostate cancer

PURPOSE This randomized phase III trial is studying dutasteride and ultrasound-guided biopsy to see how well they find prostate cancer compared with a placebo and ultrasound-guided biopsy
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the efficacy of dutasteride followed by contrast-enhanced ultrasound-guided targeted biopsy in detecting prostate cancer
Determine the detection rate of prostate cancer with targeted biopsy using contrast-enhanced ultrasound combined with dutasteride
Determine the efficacy of targeted biopsy using contrast-enhanced ultrasound vs systematic biopsy in diagnosing clinically significant prostate cancer
Determine the reduction in post-biopsy bleeding after dutasteride in these patients
Determine the cost effectiveness of this regimen in these patients

OUTLINE This is a prospective double-blind placebo-controlled randomized study Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms

Arm I Patients receive oral dutasteride once daily on days 1-14
Arm II Patients receive oral placebo once daily on days 1-14 On day 14 patients in both arms undergo blood collection and contrast-enhanced perflutren protein-type A microspheres transrectal ultrasound Conventional gray-scale imaging color Doppler imaging and power Doppler imaging are performed Biopsies are then performed first up to 6 targeted ultrasound-guided biopsies and then up to 12 systematic biopsies

After completion of study procedures patients are followed at 1 day

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 450 patients will be accrued for this study
