Summary
The Early Detection Initiative for Pancreatic Cancer is a multi-center randomized controlled trial to determine if algorithm-based screening in patients with new onset hyperglycemia and diabetes can result in earlier detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
Description
The Early Detection Initiative (EDI), is designed to evaluate if imaging at the time of new onset hyperglycemia and diabetes, especially at its earliest discovery through passive surveillance of the electronic medical record (EMR), results in earlier detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
Eligible patients are identified and enrolled based on a first-time elevation in fasting blood glucose or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) to the level indicating diabetes as derived from records in their EMR. All enrolled patients are randomized to either the Observational Arm or Intervention Arm of the study. Patients randomized to the Intervention Arm have Enriching New-onset Diabetes for Pancreatic Cancer (ENDPAC) score calculated using age, body weight and glucose or glycated hemoglobin values in their EMR. Patients with high ENDPAC score (>0) are approached for informed consent to participate in up to two imaging studies by computerized tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In addition to imaging, participants will be asked to complete study questionnaires and participate in serial blood collection at up to five time points. Blood samples collected in the EDI study will contribute to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) National Cancer Institute (NCI) biorepository located at the Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research facility. Patients in both study arms are followed for development of PDAC.
This study is performed at locations with broad (institutional) consent for use of patient EMR information for research studies. Passive follow-up by EMR will occur for five years following enrollment. Any patient that has declined participation in EMR-based research at the institution is not included in the study.
