ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND/AIM:
This study assessed the diagnostic accuracy (DA) of fecal immunochemical test (FIT) ColonView (CV) and guaiac-based fecal occult blood test (HemoccultSENSA) among bleed-positive (history or signs of intestinal bleeding) and bleed-negative participants (no history or signs of intestinal bleeding) (n=5,090) in colorectal neoplasia (CRN) screening in Brazil. PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
The eligible patients for the study (n=506) collected three consecutive stool samples, to be analyzed by both assays (CV, SENSA). Finally, 421/5090 (8.3%) patients returned both samples, which were subjected to final analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis with different cut-offs was performed to assess the DA.RESULTS:
The area under curve (AUC) values for i) visually analyzed (VA) CV for bleed-positive CRC, ii) automatically analyzed (AA) CV for bleed-positive CRC, iii) VA CV for bleed-negative CRC, and iv) AA CV for bleed-negative CRC as endpoints were as follows i) AUC=0.864, ii) AUC=0.933, iii) AUC=0.836, and iv) AUC=0.892. In roccomp analysis, the differences in AUC values were between i) and ii) p=0.068; between i) and iii) p=0.497; between i) and iv) p=0.488; between ii) and iii) p=0.0058; between ii) and iv) p=0.229; and between iii) and iv) p=0.138.CONCLUSION:
This is the first investigation where two modes of CV test, VA, and AA, for bleed-positive and bleed-negative CRC patients were used as the endpoint. The AA reading of the CV test showed higher DA in bleed-positive than in bleed-negative CRC patients.Palavras-chave
