DR. KATARINA GREER, DOD AWARD NONENDOSCOPIC SCREENING TO IMPACT ESOPHAGEAL CANCER IN VETERANS ESOPHAGEAL ADENOCARCINOMA (EAC) HAS INCREASED MORE THAN 6-FOLD IN THE PAST FOUR DECADES. THE INCORPORATION OF A NON-ENDOSCOPIC DETECTION METHOD IN PRIMARY CARE PRACTICE WILL INCREASE THE POSITIVE PREDICTIVE VALUE OF EGD AND INCREASE THE DETECTION OF BARRETT'S ESOPHAGUS (BE). THIS STUDY WILL AIM TO DETERMINE SENSITIVITY, SPECIFICITY, AND POSITIVE PREDICTIVE VALUE OF ESOCHECK SAMPLING DEVICE ESOGUARD (DNA MARKER PANEL LABORATORY DIAGNOSTIC TEST) PERFORMED IN ROUTINE PRACTICE FOR DETECTING BE IN AN AT-RISK POPULATION. THE SECOND AIM OF THE STUDY IS TO COMPARE THE YIELD OF DETECTED BE USING AN ESOCHECK/ESOGUARD STRATEGY VERSUS STANDARD EGD ALONE STRATEGY IN ROUTINE PRACTICE IN AT-RISK POPULATIONS AT THE CLEVELAND VA. THE EXPECTED OUTCOME OF THE PROPOSED WORK IS THE GATHERING OF DETAILED INFORMATION ABOUT THE TEST PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS, I.E., SENSITIVITY, SPECIFICITY, POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE PREDICTIVE VALUE. SHOULD THE SCREENING TEST PERFORM WELL, ESOCHECK/ESOGUARD TEST WOULD BE PRODUCED ON A LARGER SCALE, ITS MOLECULAR DIAGNOSTICS PROCESS WOULD BE AUTOMATED, DRIVING COSTS OF THE SCREENING DEVICE DOWN. TEST INDICATION COULD BE EXPANDED TO ALL OBESE PATIENTS OLDER THAN 50 WITHOUT A HISTORY OF CHRONIC GERD, EXPLORING THE PREVALENCE OF BE/ECA IN ASYMPTOMATIC INDIVIDUALS.
