No, it's not particularly intuitive, but the class match command will work: 


 Datagroup

 iRule example
when RULE_INIT {

log local0. "\[class search -value uri_prefixes_class starts_with \"/foo123\"\]: [class search -value uri_prefixes_class starts_with "/foo123"]"
log local0. "\[class match -value \"/foo123\" starts_with uri_prefixes_class\]: [class match -value "/foo123" starts_with uri_prefixes_class]"
}
/var/log/ltm output:
< RULE_INIT >: [class search -value uri_prefixes_class starts_with "/foo123"]:
< RULE_INIT >: [class match -value "/foo123" starts_with uri_prefixes_class]: pool1
