Recalibrating the Genetics and Epidemiology of Colorectal Cancer Consortium (GECCO) Environmental Risk Score for Use in US Veterans
Background: Risk for colorectal cancer (CRC) may accumulate through multiple environmental factors. Understanding their effects, along with genetics, age and family history, could allow improvements in clinical decisions for screening protocols. We aimed to extend previous work by recalibrating an environmental risk score (e-Score) for CRC among a sample of US Veteran participants of the Million Veteran Program (MVP). Methods: Demographic, lifestyle, and CRC data from 2011-2022 were abstracted from survey responses and health records of 227,504 male MVP participants. Weighting for each environmental factor’s effect size was recalculated using VA training data to create a recalibrated e-Score. This recalibrated score was compared with the original weighted e-Score in a validation sample of 113,752 (n cases=590). Nested multiple logistic regression models tested associations between quintiles for recalibrated and original e-Scores. Likelihood Ratio Tests were used to compare model performance. Results: Age (p<0.0001), education (p<0.0001), diabetes (p<0.0001), physical activity (p<0.0001), smoking (p<0.0001), NSAID use (p<0.0001), calcium (p=0.015), folate (p=0.020), and fruit consumption (p=0.019) were significantly different between CRC case and control groups. In the validation sample, the recalibrated e-Score model significantly improved the base model performance (p<0.001), but the original e-Score model did not (p=0.07). The recalibrated e-Score model quintile 5 was associated with significantly higher odds for CRC compared with quintile 1 (Q5 vs Q1: 1.79, 95% CI: 1.38-2.33). Conclusions: Multiple environmental factors, and the recalibrated e-Score quintiles were significantly associated with CRC cases. Impact: A recalibrated, Veteran-specific e-Score could be used to help personalize CRC screening and prevention strategies.
期刊介绍:
Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention publishes original peer-reviewed, population-based research on cancer etiology, prevention, surveillance, and survivorship. The following topics are of special interest: descriptive, analytical, and molecular epidemiology; biomarkers including assay development, validation, and application; chemoprevention and other types of prevention research in the context of descriptive and observational studies; the role of behavioral factors in cancer etiology and prevention; survivorship studies; risk factors; implementation science and cancer care delivery; and the science of cancer health disparities. Besides welcoming manuscripts that address individual subjects in any of the relevant disciplines, CEBP editors encourage the submission of manuscripts with a transdisciplinary approach.
