Screening for Colorectal Cancer in Recipients of Kidney Transplants

ABSTRACT: Interventions: 1. Faecal occult blood testing (FOBT). Participants will perform FOBT following enrolment. This involves using a patient kit to sample their own stools for the presence of blood, mailing their testing kit in to a central lab once it is completed. Testing will be conducted once but may involve sampling several stools. 2. Colonoscopy. All participants will also undergo colonoscopy following the completion of FOBT, regardless of the result. This will be performed within a target of 3 months post enrolment. Primary outcome(s): Sensitivity and specificity of faecal occult blood testing for colorectal cancer and colorectal neoplasia, using colonscopy as the gold standard procedure.[One-off screening with both FOBT and colonoscopy, with a completion target of 3 months post enrolment.] Study Design: Purpose: Screening;Duration: Cross-sectional;Selection: Defined population;Timing: Prospective

First approach on the use of samples from fecal occult blood screening kits for metabolomic analysis. Application in colorectal cancer population.

Project description:Cancer is the most common disease around the world and colorectal cancer is the second most common cancer. The early diagnosis of colorectal cancer is difficult and relies on invasive diag-nostic tools such as colonoscopy and tissue biopsy. Other non-invasive techniques such as fecal occult blood screening test (FOBT) are less sensitive and accurate. The advantage of FOBT together with high throughput technology such as metabolomics could provide the advantages of non-invasive tool and the effectiveness of detecting novel colorectal cancer markers. In this way, this work focuses on the novelty of using FOBT as samples to perform metabolomics analysis and its application on colorectal cancer population.

Validation of an Alternative Biological Test to Increase the Detection Sensitivity of a Colon Tumour

Project description:Screening campaigns for colorectal cancer (CRC) involve two steps: the detection of occult blood in stools using a Hemoccult GAIAC test (FOBT) on three consecutive stool samples, followed by colonoscopy if the result is positive. The information quality of the Hemoccult test, however, is poor: in the asymptomatic 50 to 74 year-old population, the detection sensitivity of polyps more than 1 cm in diameter is of the order of 10 to 30% and is 35 to 50% for detecting colorectal cancers; specificity is 94 to 98% that of a complete colonoscopy. The I-FOBTs based on immunological detection and quantification of occult blood in stools are currently being evaluated; based on the threshold it can be more sensitive than FOBT, but enhances useless colonoscopies. Alternatively, with highest threshold of blood in stools, it may become highly specific and miss less advanced polyps. Faecal molecular tests based on the detection of human DNA anomalies (point gene mutations, methylation disorders of CG islets) appear to be more sensitive than the detection of occult blood in stools with no loss of specificity, but they are very expensive, thereby limiting their generalisation to the scale of population screening. A formal methylated DNA test has been validated in stools as well as in blood in a cohort of symptomatic individuals having undergone colonoscopy. The aim of the present study is to validate this test by taking advantage of the biotechnical expertise from renowned academic research teams and mass screening organisation.

Effectiveness of Tel and SMS Reminder on Compliance With CRC Screening

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the major global health challenges. CRC is currently the third most common cancer in men and the second common in women worldwide, accounting for approximately 10% of all cancers. Randomized controlled studies have shown that CRC screening using Faecal Occult Blood Testing (FOBT) is effective in reducing cancer mortality by 15-33%. Since yearly testing is recommended to maintain programmatic effectiveness, longitudinal adherence is a critical component of FOBT-based screening programs. The investigators previous study conducted in Hong Kong showed that the rate of compliance with CRC screening was declining since the first year of enrolment. Nevertheless, it remains unknown whether interventions based on reminder systems could effectively enhance longitudinal compliance with FOBT, especially among those who have already enrolled in a CRC screening programme. Current evidence does not adequately compare whether interactive or one-way reminder messages are superior to usual care (i.e. no reminders).

Colorectal Cancer Screening Assessment Study

Project description:This study, led by the American Samoa Community Cancer Coalition’s INdigenous Samoan Partnership to Initiate Research Excellence (INSPIRE) and the UH Cancer Center’s project team including Dr. Cassel, will utilize a community-based and culturally relevant process to assess the uptake of fecal occult blood testing (FOBT) using tailored colorectal cancer patient education materials for those with inadequate health literacy. Our primary outcomes include: 1) process to develop "suitable" and "comprehensible" health promotion materials for populations in English and Samoan with various health literacy levels, 2) commitment to use the FOBT Colocare home kit, and 3) use of a FOBT Colocare home kit.

Screening for Colorectal Cancer With FOBT, Virtual Colonoscopy and Optical Colonoscopy. A Randomized Clinical Trial in the Florence District

Project description:RATIONALE: Computed tomographic colonography (CTC) has proven to be accurate in detecting colorectal neoplasms and may be a primary test in colorectal cancer screening. PURPOSE: This clinical trial will compare participation rate, diagnostic yield and costs of computed tomographic colonography, faecal occult blood test (FOBT) and colonoscopy (CO) as a primary screening test in a population-based programme.

The host response of IBS patients to allogenic and autologous faecal microbiota transfer

Project description:In this randomised placebo-controlled trial, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients were treated with faecal material from a healthy donor (n=8, allogenic FMT) or with their own faecal microbiota (n=8, autologous FMT). The faecal transplant was administered by whole colonoscopy into the caecum (30 g of stool in 150 ml sterile saline). Two weeks before the FMT (baseline) as well as two and eight weeks after the FMT, the participants underwent a sigmoidoscopy, and biopsies were collected at a standardised location (20-25 cm from the anal verge at the crossing with the arteria iliaca communis) from an uncleansed sigmoid. In patients treated with allogenic FMT, predominantly immune response-related genes sets were induced, with the strongest response two weeks after FMT. In patients treated with autologous FMT, predominantly metabolism-related gene sets were affected.

Improving uptake of colorectal cancer screening among primary care attendees

Project description:Interventions: The intervention group will receive a one-off individual intervention delivered in the primary care clinic. The intervention will involve the following: In the waiting room, a research assistant will provide intervention participants with an envelope prior to their GP appointment. The envelope will contain: a) a faecal occult blood test kit with: instructions for completion; pathology request form, and: pre-paid postage to mail the kit for analysis. b) A feedback sheet containing screening recommendations for those at average risk of colorectal cancer (including recommended: age to commence screening; screening test; frequency of testing). The sheet will also include methods to obtain FOBT as well as what to do with the FOBT provided. The research assistant will deliver the survey and for eligible patients will complete the pathology form but will not provide any medical advice or endorse completion of the intervention. The general practitioner will endorse the FOBT during the patient’s appointment. The GP will reinforce the importance of completing the FOBT and recommend the patient complete the FOBT using a script provided by the research team during a pre-study training session. Primary outcome(s): Uptake of FOBT screening will be assessed via self-report in the intervention and usual care groups.[6 weeks post baseline] Study Design: Purpose: Prevention; Allocation: Randomised controlled trial; Masking: Open (masking not used);Assignment: Parallel;Type of endpoint: Efficacy
