Abstract
AIM:The present study compared the accuracy of ColonView (CV) quick test in detecting proximal versus distal colorectal cancer (CRC). A traditional guaiac-based fecal occult blood test (gFOBT) (Hemoccult SENSA) was used as a reference. PATIENTS AND METHODS:A cohort of 368 colonoscopy-referral patients were asked to collect 3 consecutive fecal samples, to be analyzed by both assays (CV, SENSA). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to find the optimal cut-off values for both Hb and Hb/Hp of the CV test. Summary hierarchical ROC (HSROC) curves were used to visualize the pooled overall accuracy of visually analysed (VA) and automatically analyzed (AA) reading modes in proximal and distal CRC detection. RESULTS:The overall specificity (Sp) of the AA reading mode for the proximal CRC and distal CRC endpoint was 73% and 76%, respectively. For proximal CRC, the two most sensitive AA tests showed 90% sensitivity (Se), while for distal CRC, the two most sensitive AA tests showed 100% Se. In the HSROC analysis, the AUC values were as follows: i) VA in proximal CRC: 0.765, ii) AA in proximal CRC: 0.878, iii) VA in distal CRC: 0.955 and iv) AA in distal CRC: 0.961. In roccomp analysis, AUC values were significantly different in: VA vs. AA in proximal CRC p=0.009; VA in proximal vs. VA in distal CRC p<0.0001; VA in proximal vs. AA in distal CRC p<0.0001; AA in proximal vs. VA in distal CRC p=0.021; AA in proximal CRC vs. AA in distal CRC p=0.006. CONCLUSION:The applicability of the CV test (a new-generation FIT) in CRC screening was confirmed. The AA reading was superior to VA (or SENSA) in its diagnostic accuracy in detecting proximal CRC patients. Distal CRCs were more accurately detected than proximal CRCs by both reading modes.
