Résumé

Fecal immunochemical test (FIT) is less effective in detecting advanced adenomas (AA) than colonoscopy. Increase in FIT for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening may lead to an increased number of undetected AAs which may develop into future CRCs. We determined the potential impact of FIT expansion on missed AAs and future CRC diagnoses in an urban, tertiary-care, safety-net hospital. CRC and AA diagnoses were identified in patients undergoing colonoscopy for average-risk CRC screening or positive FIT between 2017 and 2019 at Boston Medical Center. Poisson regression modeling was used to estimate the frequency of AAs per year by age group using data from 2017 to 2019, assuming average outpatient volume and proportion of screening colonoscopies. Total number of patients who received FIT was extrapolated from those who underwent colonoscopy for positive FIT. We estimated AAs per year if 'one-time' FIT was used for screening in 75% and 100% of the population and subtracted this from the estimated AAs per year under the Poisson model to determine missed AAs. We used previously described, age and gender specific estimates of the annual progression of AA to CRC. The estimated number of CRCs detected per year is 4.6/1785 males and 4.6/2086 females screened. With 75% FIT expansion, we estimate an additional 3.5 (95% CI 1.3, 9.5) and 2.2 (95% CI 0.64, 7.6) CRCs; with 100% FIT expansion, we estimate an additional 7.4 (95% CI 3.7, 14.9) and 4.2 (95% CI 1.7, 10.5) CRCs, in 5 years, in males and females, respectively. Expansion of FIT may substantially increase CRC incidence.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Fecal immunochemical test (FIT) is less effective in detecting advanced adenomas (AA) than colonoscopy. Increase in FIT for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening may lead to an increased number of undetected AAs which may develop into future CRCs.
AIM OBJECTIVE
We determined the potential impact of FIT expansion on missed AAs and future CRC diagnoses in an urban, tertiary-care, safety-net hospital.
METHODS METHODS
CRC and AA diagnoses were identified in patients undergoing colonoscopy for average-risk CRC screening or positive FIT between 2017 and 2019 at Boston Medical Center. Poisson regression modeling was used to estimate the frequency of AAs per year by age group using data from 2017 to 2019, assuming average outpatient volume and proportion of screening colonoscopies. Total number of patients who received FIT was extrapolated from those who underwent colonoscopy for positive FIT. We estimated AAs per year if 'one-time' FIT was used for screening in 75% and 100% of the population and subtracted this from the estimated AAs per year under the Poisson model to determine missed AAs. We used previously described, age and gender specific estimates of the annual progression of AA to CRC.
RESULTS RESULTS
The estimated number of CRCs detected per year is 4.6/1785 males and 4.6/2086 females screened. With 75% FIT expansion, we estimate an additional 3.5 (95% CI 1.3, 9.5) and 2.2 (95% CI 0.64, 7.6) CRCs; with 100% FIT expansion, we estimate an additional 7.4 (95% CI 3.7, 14.9) and 4.2 (95% CI 1.7, 10.5) CRCs, in 5 years, in males and females, respectively.
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
Expansion of FIT may substantially increase CRC incidence.
