This study presents a novel mass-spectrometry-based approach using MALDI-TOF analysis of trace blood samples combined with machine learning to build diagnostic, stage prediction, and risk stratification models. Serum metabolic fingerprints were obtained from 181 prostate cancer patients and 186 non-cancer controls, with an external validation cohort used to confirm performance.

The authors introduced a novel approach based on mass spectrometry for precise diagnosis and stratification of PCa to facilitate clinical decision-making.  \nMethods: Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry analysis of trace blood samples was combined with machine learning algorithms to construct diagnostic and stratification models. A total of 367 subjects, comprising 181 with PCa and 186 with non-PCa were enrolled. Additional 60 subjects, comprising 30 with PCa and 30 with non-PCa were enrolled as an external cohort for validation. Subsequent metabolomic analysis was carried out using Autoflex MALDI-TOF, and the mass spectra were introduced into various algorithms to construct different models.  \nResults: Serum metabolic fingerprints were successfully obtained from 181 patients with PCa and 186 patients with non-PCa. The diagnostic model based on the eight signals demonstrated a remarkable area under curve of 100% and was validated in the external cohort with the area under curve of 87.3% . Fifteen signals were selected for enrichment analysis, revealing the potential metabolic pathways that facilitate tumorigenesis. Furthermore, the stage prediction model with an overall accuracy of 85.9% precisely classified subjects with localized disease and those with metastasis. The risk stratification model, with an overall accuracy of 89 .6%, precisely classified the subjects as low-risk and high-risk.  \nConclusions: Our study facilitated the timely diagnosis and risk stratification of PCa and provided new insights into the underlying mechanisms of metabolic alterations in PCa.  \nKeywords: mass spectrometry, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization, metabolomic, prostate neoplasms  \nBackground  \nProstate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common malignancies with 1 414 259 new cases each year in men globally, leading to substantial clinical mortality with ~375 304 deaths annually[1,2]. The timely identification and proper management of PCa are crucial for enhancing long-term clinical outcomes[3–5] . Despite the  \nwidespread use of serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) for PCascreening in clinical practice, its diagnostic accuracy may be compromised by elevated levels in certain benign conditions, resulting in suboptimal sensitivity and specificity[6,7] . Meanwhile, MRI with a high negative predictive value, can obviate unnecessary biopsy and improve the overall diagnosis[8] .
