nccrt.org/tools/80-percent-by-2018/80-percent-by-2018-pledge/
13. Founded in 2012
Expanded to include Early Onset CRC in 2016
The charge is to identify key issues and areas
of need around familial, inherited and early
onset colorectal cancer for the purpose of
identifying opportunities for the Roundtable
to be a catalyst for change.
Family History Task Group
14. • Help clinicians develop a system-based approach to the identification and
management of patients at familial risk, as well as the recommendation
for early diagnostic evaluation of those presenting with signs or symptoms
of CRC at any age.
• Improve EHRs to help facilitate needed screening and/or counseling
recommendations for patients with a family history.
• Increase clinician-patient and intra-family communication about
familial/heritable risk.
• Improve “on time” screening for the 50 to 55 population, according to
recommended guidelines.
• Address the increase in CRC in young adults through strategic planning
and interactions with key stakeholders and thought leaders.
Task Group Themes
16. Hosted FH Symposium on Sept 23, 2014
• 34 attendees, including many renown experts in the field
• Goals:
Review state-of-the-science: risk estimate, screening guidelines, screening rates,
barriers, interventions
Identify research priorities
Determine critical next steps to increase screening rates in high-risk individuals
• Key take-home messages
Need to enhance the capability of EHR systems for collecting FH data in
standardized formats and linking them with clinical decision making;
Need for provider education and risk assessment tools to facilitate identification
and appropriate management of patients at increased/high risk;
Outreach to survivors provides a key yet underutilized link to high risk families.
Needs include:
o Tools to help survivors communicate risk to their families.
o Guidelines for educating patients about talking to their doctors regarding CRC.
17.
18. State-of- Science Paper: Key Priorities
• Improve how we collect and utilize cancer FH information.
• Establish consensus across organizations for CRC screening guidelines
by FH status.
• Enhance provider/patient knowledge of guidelines and
communication about CRC risk.
• Encourage cancer survivors to promote screening within their
families, and partner with existing CRC screening programs to expand
reach to high-risk groups.
20. GI Brief
5 key recommendations:
• Focused FH for all patients
annually
• Keep abreast of guidelines
• Establish a referral process
• ID high-risk patients in
Endoscopy Unit
• Develop/use tools to
communicate with family

http://nccrt.org/resource/familial-risk-webinar/
• Sent email notification to NCCRT members and 80% pledged partners
• Promoted on NCCRT’s Facebook and Twitter social media channel
• Issued call to action to GI society representatives and communications leads to
promote
Provider Education
22. Toolkit
• Jackson Lab commissioned to develop practice transformation
clinician’s toolkit on family history and early onset CRC.
• Goals:
To bridge the existing knowledge gap and to provide a step-by-step,
detailed tool for practices that are dedicated to improving their
processes related to the collection of family history and acting on that
information according to recommended guidelines.
Provide guidance on the appropriate diagnostic evaluation of patients
with “alarm” signs and symptoms of CRC, regardless of age.
Provider Education
23. Toolkit
Specific Objectives:
• Conduct a multi-faceted needs assessment to discover best
practices in CRC screening of at-risk populations and to
identify key drivers influencing successful CRC screening
programs
• Develop a toolkit for PCPs to facilitate practical
implementation of appropriate risk assessment, screening,
and communication practices for early detection of CRC
Provider Education
24.
25. 2017 Early Age Onset Colorectal Cancer Summit: “What we know,
what we don’t know, and what we need to know”
•The National Colorectal Cancer Roundtable, the American Cancer Society,
and the Colon Cancer Challenge Foundation convened a strategic meeting on
December 6, 2017, with a small group of key thought leaders and national
stakeholders to focus on the concerning trend of early age onset colorectal
cancer.
•Purpose: To assess how the NCCRT and its partners, including clinical
practitioners, researchers, and advocacy organizations, can most effectively
align to address the issue in both the short and long term.
Early Onset CRC
26. Agenda and Discussions
•Panel 1: Emerging Trends and Research:
A review of what we know, what we don’t know, and what we need
to know.
•Panel 2: Exploring key questions that need further scientific research and
explanation
This discussion asked panelists to pose key questions from their
perspective that need to be answered and studies that need to be
conducted in critical research areas. Focus areas included
epidemiology, molecular biology, and genetics.
•Review and Discussion: Risk Assessment and Screening Toolkit to
Detect Familial, Hereditary and Early Onset Colorectal Cancer
Early Onset CRC
27. Small Group Discussions
“Acting Now: What important steps need to happen if we are to
address knowledge gaps”
•3 Discussion Groups
What are the key research questions that need to be addressed in this
area and how can we stimulate needed research?
What do frontline providers need most need if they are to play a more
effective role in diagnosing CRC at the earliest stage?
What is the role of national organizations, such as NCI, CDC, ACS and the
NCCRT, in stimulating work around the early age onset issue with front-
line providers?
Early Onset CRC
28. Meeting Themes
• Defining roles for major stakeholders
National agencies: coming together and providing guidance for research on the
issue.
Front-line providers: Engaging them and better understand how to provide
assistance.
NCCRT: Provide a platform to gather partners around the issue.
Healthcare Systems: Improve organization and engagement in research and
implementation.
• Improving Practice: Development, accessibility and validation of
tools improving practice.
Early Onset CRC
29. Meeting Themes (cont)
• Modeling: Inform the CRC screening microsimulation models by
better defining the adenoma prevalence & dwell time in the <
40 - 50 year old age group.
• Emphasis on communication:
Continue to promote awareness around family health communication,
with particular interest towards advanced adenomas;
Changing the narrative to incorporate “On Time Screening” messaging
• Insuring universal MSI testing
• Urgent need for additional research
Early Onset CRC
30. Post-Meeting Progress
• Two meeting reports are in development
A detailed meeting recap and recording of
conversations.
An academic manuscript noting key themes, areas of
focus, and pertinent research questions explored.
• Keeping the conversation moving forward: Colon
Cancer Challenge Foundation’s Summit
Early Onset CRC
32. Hosted EHR Meeting (9/29/15)
Objectives: Develop consensus statement, core components and outline
NCCRT Strategy on improving FH collection in EMRs
Issues from Family History perspective:
– EMR data is collected in a variable manner
• What is goal of FH component of EMR?
• What are the minimal data elements?
• How should they be collected?
– No link between family history data in EMR and clinical decisions
• What types of linkage?
• Potentially work with vendors
Improve Collection/Utilization of FH Information
33. Delphi Survey
Goal:
•Establish a standardized, core set of data items for collecting
cancer family history directly into EHRs, or integrating these into
EHRs from family history tools.
Progress:
• Transition from “Broad Consensus” to “Expert Consensus”
• Completed first iteration of the survey.
• Received comments on low and high level agreement
questions, currently working on those with mid level
agreement
Improve Collection/Utilization of FH Information
34. Delphi Survey
Improve Collection/Utilization of FH Information
• Consensus items thus far (>80%)
– Goal- ID patients who should be referred for further risk
assessment and those at higher than average risk and need
more intense screening
– Data elements- FDRs and SDRs, age of cancer dx, all cancer
types that would change screening, entered as discrete
elements in searchable fields, importable from FH tool and
patient portal, updated whenever new information becomes
available
35. Delphi Survey
Improve Collection/Utilization of FH Information
– Links to Decision Making- capacity to alert increased risk of
hereditary cancer syndrome or elevated cancer risk or need for
different screening, provide links to current screening
guidelines based on FH and generate best practice alerts for
cancer screening for high risk pts
– Development Process- Elements of FH section should be
guided by national standards, standardized across EHRs,
incorporated centrally by EHR vendors and updated by vendors
as recommendations change
– Incentives- Completing/Maintaining FH section and referral of
appropriate patients for genetic counseling/testing should be
expected as part of high quality care
36. Improve Collection/Utilization of FH Information
• ACS CAN EHR Workgroup- Shelly Yu
Recommendations
#1: Enable the systematic, structured, and easy collection of critical data elements to
inform cancer risk assessment, prevention and screening
#2: Support cancer screenings by enabling providers to identify, order, track, and
document screenings
#3: Enable cancer risk assessment by appropriately flagging patients for genetic
counseling, testing, and/or screening, and integrating with risk assessment tools
38. • Finalize, disseminate and validate the Clinicians Family
History EAO Toolkit
• Complete the Delphi Survey, analyze the data, share
results with the NCCRT and ACS CAN and submit for
publication
• Identify strategies for optimizing communication about
advanced adenomas
• Work with NCCRT to change narrative regarding “on-time
screening”
•Ask NCCRT to convene and facilitate a meeting of leaders
of Primary Care Organizations to discuss EAO CRC.

42. 42
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center –
Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove
Research Institute
Who is at high risk for cancer?
Family History is the key…
43. Family History
An important first step in risk assessment for
genetic diseases and other hereditary health
conditions
Americans know that family history is
important to health. A recent survey found
that 96 percent of Americans believe that
knowing their family history is important. Yet,
the same survey found that only one-third of
Americans have ever tried to gather and
write down their family's health history.
44.
45. Strong family history of cancer
Need referral for genetic counseling & consideration of
genetic testing
Need intensive cancer surveillance
Depends on the syndrome but often includes colonoscopy
every 1-2 years starting in the teens-20s
The first degree relatives of a person with a hereditary
cancer predisposition syndrome have a 50% chance that
they have inherited it
Cancer risks vary but range from 20-100%
High Risk Families
46. Cancer in 2 or more close relatives
(on same side of family)
Multiple generations affected
Early age at diagnosis
Rare cancers (sebaceous skin cancer)
Multiple primary tumors (colon and uterus; more
than one colon cancer)
Multiple colon polyps (>10)
Patients with certain pathology findings
Abnormal IHC or MSI+ testing
High Risk Clues:
47. Over 1.2 million individuals in
the United States have Lynch
syndrome
Inherited condition that causes
high risks for colorectal cancer,
endometrial cancer, and other
cancers
Preventable cancers with early
and more frequent screening
95% of affected individuals do
not know they have Lynch
syndrome
Lynch Syndrome
49. Familial Adenomatous Polyposis
(FAP)
o > 100 adenomatous polyps
throughout colon
o Increased risks for colorectal,
duodenal, thyroid cancers,
medulloblastoma, and
hepatoblastoma
o Gene: APC (30% of mutations are
de novo)
Attenuated FAP
o 20-100 adenomas
o Gene: APC (mutations in specific
locations lead to milder phenotype)
Adenomatous Polyposis Syndromes
MUTYH-Associated Polyposis (MAP)
o 20-100s of adenomatous polyps
o Overlap with FAP and Lynch
syndrome
o Gene: MUTYH (recessive with 1/50
carrier frequency)
Polymerase proofreading-associated
polyposis (PPAP)
o Increased risk of adenomatous
colon polyps, colon cancer, uterine
cancer, and possibly other cancers
o Newer syndrome, still being defined
o Genes: POLD1, POLE
50. Peutz-Jeghers syndrome
o Peutz-Jeghers polyps
primarily in the small
intestine but can be
throughout GI tract
o Increased risk for GI cancers
and multiple other cancers
(breast, SCTAT of the
ovaries and testicles,
pancreatic)
o Gene: STK11
Hamartomatous Polyposis Syndromes
Juvenile polyposis syndrome
o Juvenile polyps throughout GI
tract, increased risk for GI
cancers
o > 5 JP is diagnostic criteria
o Genes: BMPR1A, SMAD4
Serrated polyposis syndrome
o > 20 serrated/hyperplastic
polyps throughout the colon
o Increased risk for colon cancer
o Gene: Not known
GI = gastrointestinal; JP = juvenile polyposis; SCTAT = sex cord tumor with annular tubules.
51. Hereditary mixed polyposis syndrome
o Syndrome mostly seen in individuals
of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry
o Adenomatous, hyperplastic, other
type of polyps through GI tract
o Gene: SCG5/GREM1
Cowden syndrome
o Multiple different types of polyps –
ganglioneuromas especially
suspicious
o Increased risk for breast, thyroid,
endometrial, and colon cancers
o Gene: PTEN
Mixed Polyposis Syndromes
52. 1-2 cases of a cancer in the family
Do not need referral for genetic counseling
Do need increased cancer surveillance
Generally the first degree relatives of a person with a
cancer are about twice as likely to develop that same
cancer than someone without that family history (10%
lifetime risk)
Moderate Risk Families
54. >1 FDR dx at any age
Colonoscopy every 5-10 years beginning at age 40 (or 10
years before earliest dx of CRC)
>1 SDR diagnosed <50
Colonoscopy every 5-10 years beginning at age 50

Understand advanced adenoma prevalence among EAO
CRC is a priority area and a critical step in decreasing
incidence and mortality of EAO CRC
Innovation:
• Determine the contribution of component of familial
risk that has not been measured
• The first study (to our knowledge) to investigate the
prevalence of AA among a cohort of pathologically
confirmed EAO CRC patients
70
71. EAO CRC cases, n=507
• EAO cases recruited between 1/1/2013 and
12/31/2016)
Diagnosed with a primary invasive colorectal
adenocarcinoma (all stages) <50 years of age
Not identified as having a cancer susceptibility gene
or having a family history of colorectal cancer
• Anticipate 4 first degree relatives per EAO case
N=~2000 FDRs to contact
73. Outcomes
1) Prevalence of AA among FDRs of EAO CRC
patients who do not have a hereditary
syndrome or a first degree relative with
colorectal cancer.
2) Proportion (%) of EAO CRC patients who would have been
recommended to start colonoscopy PRIOR to the age at
which they developed their colorectal cancer based on the
FDR with an advanced adenoma.
3) Proportion (%) of patients that were diagnosed with a EAO
CRC that could have been realistically prevented or detected
early.
75. Improve post-colonoscopy
communication
Population
Adenoma patients, primary care and GI physicians
Goals
1. Close “open communication loops”
2. Engage patients and families after adenoma diagnosis
3. Address surveillance colonoscopy underutilization
Design
Mixed-methods approach
75
76. Preliminary data indicates:
1. Communication between the gastroenterologist and
the referring physician often lack contextual
information such as final pathology results
2. Recommended follow up is not consistently
documented.
3. Post-polypectomy patients have low awareness of
their risk for colorectal cancer and surveillance
recommendations.
4. No efficient system in place for communicating
colonoscopy results.
77. Research questions:
1) Will improving understanding of colonoscopy results
among patients with advanced adenomas impact
conversation with FDRs about early screening?
2) Is it possible to create a “universal colonoscopy
report” that can be shared among the
gastroenterologist, patient, and primary care?
3) Can we provide links to family members to impact
early screening adherence?

81. Mission
• To understand the role of advanced adenoma on EAO
CRC
• To develop novel tools and resources to improve
advanced adenoma knowledge and awareness
among patients and physicians
• To impact compliance with surveillance colonoscopy
uptake among adenoma patients and screening
uptake among FDRs of advanced adenoma patients
81
82. Summary and Next Steps
1. Know your family history of CRC and adenomas, particularly advanced
adenomas
2. Research initiatives are needed to fully explore:
• Impact of advanced adenomas on EAO CRC
• How to reach family members of individuals diagnosed with advanced
adenomas

85. Outcomes
3. Proportion (%) of EAO patients that were diagnosed with a EAO CRC that
could have been realistically prevented or detected early. The numerator
for this proportion will include the number of EAO cases for which the
tumor stage and timing of the screening interval (based upon the FDRs
adenoma diagnosis and a priori categories* determined by the
investigators) intersect in such a way that that it would have been
reasonably possible to detect their EAO cancer early or prevent it
altogether.
*Category examples (will provide gender specific analyses in the study):
Tumor stage 0-1 and screening recommended ≥5 yrs prior = yes reasonable chance of prevention.
Tumor stage 1-2 and screening recommended ≤ 5 yrs prior = early detection more reasonable than
prevention.
Tumor stage 3-4 and screening recommended within one year prior = no, not reasonably prevented
but potentially detected at an earlier stage.
Tumor stage 3-4 and screening recommended ≥5 years prior = prevention and early detection is
reasonable.
86. EHR Adoption, Functionality Has Increased
1.) 2008 numbers refer to adoption of basic EHRs, as defined by ONC (e.g., any EHR with capabilities in areas such as: patient demographics, physician notes, nursing assessments, patient problem lists, electronic
lists of medications taken by patients.
“An Electronic Health Record (EHR) is an electronic
version of a patient’s medical history, that is maintained
by the provider over time, and may include all the key
administrative clinical data relevant to that person’s care
under a particular provider…The EHR automates access
to information and has the potential to streamline the
clinician’s workflow. The EHR also has the ability to
support other care-related activities directly or indirectly
through various interfaces, including evidence-based
decision support, quality management, and outcomes
reporting.”

relative using either
SNOMED CT or the HL7
Pedigree standard;
additionally EHRs must

88. Challenges to Family History Remain
85%
Of women undergoing
mammographies for were missing
critical family history data in the
EHR
Incomplete family histories
Michelle Lardner, Deputy CIO, NIH
No major EHR vendor has
native genomics tools or
functionality…besides family
history documentation, there
is no place to create or
document pedigree.
Lack of advanced functionalities
Welch BM, et al.,
Journal of Genetic Counseling, 2018
Despite the fact that…FHx
tools support HL7 standards,
integration with EHRs is still a
challenge
Lack of integration
Commonly Cited Challenges Related to Family History in the EHR
89. Future Opportunities
Health reform (e.g., QPP)
- Specific measures within the MIPS encourage
increased patient engagement and integration with
third party tools (e.g., Advancing Care Information
measure ACI_CCTPE_3 requires that patient-
generated health data or data from a non-clinical
setting is incorporated into the certified EHR
technology)
- Overall increased focus on population health
management and accountable care incentivize
prevention and early detection
Technological advancements
- Increase in the number of validated family history
collection tools available on the market today,
including patient-facing tools
- Improved integration capabilities with SMART on
FHIR and pluggable apps

122. Early onset CRC is on the rise
Recognize that the incidence of CRC is increasing in individuals under age 50.
Be aware that a substantial proportion of early onset CRC may be prevented or
detected at an earlier stage by identifying people with a family history of cancer
and adenomas.
Regardless of age, consider CRC in the evaluation of patients with alarm signs and
symptoms, including:
o blood in the stool
o recent-onset and persistent or progressive diarrhea/constipation
o persistent or progressive abdominal pain
o abdominal mass
o unexplained iron deficiency anemia
o unexplained weight loss

Evaluation
126. Toolkit limitations
FH and EAO focus, not comprehensive to include all aspects of cancer
genetics
CRC focus rather than comprehensive risk assessment across conditions
Limited evidence-based best practices
Family history tools and EHR limitations
Assumes organizational buy-in
Practice variation, assumes need for some customization and
modifications based on experience
127. Opportunities for the future
1. Validate CRC FH screening tools in toolkit for primary care.
2. Develop an electronic version of FH screening tools and/or provide them to EHR
vendors.
3. Develop a CRC risk assessment calculator for providers that integrates personal history,
lifestyle risk factors, and family history for use in the general population.
4. Implement the toolkit and evaluate the process of implementation.
5. Collaborate with professional societies and other stakeholders to develop a
comprehensive risk assessment tool or process that includes CRC along with other
conditions.
6. Develop an awareness campaign about EAO CRC for front line providers.
7. Further evaluate needs and opportunities related to patient education and engagement
re: FH.
8. Provide minimum requirements and best practices regarding FH to EHR vendors.
9. Research solutions for portability of family history across EHRs and health systems.
