DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Recent evidence suggests that sessile serrated polyps (SSPs), flat, colonic lesions with architectural abnormalities at the base of crypts and a serrated appearance, may be important precursors to colorectal cancer. Previously, advanced adenomas were the only known polyp precursors for colorectal cancer, and SSPs were clinically grouped with hyperplastic polyps, lesions routinely believed to have no malignant potential. Now, there is growing consensus that SSPs progress to cancer along the "serrated pathway". New guidelines were developed in 2012 recommending complete removal of SSPs and increased colorectal cancer surveillance in patients with a history of SSPs. However, these guidelines acknowledge that these new recommendations are largely based on cross-sectional data, with the only longitudinal study of colorectal cancer risk in patients with SSPs limited by size (n=40). Therefore, the primary objective of this application is to gather preliminary data to estimate the risk of colorectal cancer in a large cohort of patients with clinically diagnosed SSPs. We will address the following specific aims: 1) compare the risk of subsequent colorectal cancer in patients who had SSPs diagnosed at an index colonoscopy to patients with advanced adenomas, and estimate the time to cancer progression in both polyp groups; 2) among those with SSPs at index colonoscopy, evaluate whether risk of incident colorectal cancer varies according to size and location of the index SSP. To accomplish these aims, we propose a cohort study of 2,250 patients evaluated via an index colonoscopy between 2003 and 2011 at the University of Washington Medical Center Gastroenterology Clinic and diagnosed with SSPs (N=750) or advanced adenomas (N=1,500). Using University of Washington's established Microsoft Amalga data aggregation platform, which links electronic medical records data across different sources, we have already identified our study cohort. Additional medical informatics and natural language processing will be used to electronically extract data on patient characteristics, and index polyp size and location. Then, we will electronically follow-up patients for incident colorectal cancer through December 2012 by linking our study cohort to the Puget Sound Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Cancer Registry (SEER), a population based cancer registry covering western Washington State, including the catchment area for the University of Washington Medical Center Gastroenterology Clinic patient population. Cox regression models will be used to estimate hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals of colorectal cancer risk comparing patients with SSPs to those with advanced adenomas (Aim 1) and to estimate colorectal cancer risk between patients with different polyp characteristics among those with SSPs (Aim 2). This will be the largest longitudinal study of colorectal cancer risk in patients with SSPs to date and the first study in a colonoscopy-based cohort to estimate incidence of colorectal cancer in those with SSPs diagnosed though usual care in the clinical setting.

描述（由申请人提供）：最近的证据表明，无柄锯齿状息肉（ssp）是一种扁平的结肠病变，在隐窝底部有结构异常，外观呈锯齿状，可能是结直肠癌的重要前兆。以前，晚期腺瘤是唯一已知的结直肠癌的息肉前体，ssp在临床上与增殖性息肉分组，通常认为病变没有恶性潜能。现在，越来越多的人认为ssp是沿着“锯齿状通路”发展成癌症的。2012年制定了新的指南，建议对有ssp病史的患者完全切除ssp并加强结直肠癌监测。然而，这些指南承认，这些新的建议在很大程度上是基于横断面数据，仅有的对ssp患者结直肠癌风险的纵向研究受到大小的限制（n=40）。因此，本应用程序的主要目的是收集初步数据，以估计临床诊断为ssp的大队列患者患结直肠癌的风险。我们将解决以下具体目标：1)比较在指数结肠镜检查中诊断为ssp的患者与晚期腺瘤患者随后发生结直肠癌的风险，并估计两组息肉患者癌症进展的时间；2)在指数结肠镜检查有SSP的患者中，评估指数SSP的大小和位置是否会改变结直肠癌的发生风险。为了实现这些目标，我们提出了一项队列研究，对2003年至2011年在华盛顿大学医学中心胃肠病学诊所通过指数结肠镜评估的2250例患者进行了研究，这些患者被诊断为ssp （N=750）或晚期腺瘤（N= 1500）。使用华盛顿大学建立的Microsoft Amalga数据聚合平台，该平台将不同来源的电子医疗记录数据连接起来，我们已经确定了我们的研究队列。额外的医学信息学和自然语言处理将用于电子提取患者特征数据，并索引息肉的大小和位置。然后，我们将电子跟踪患者
