Karen M. Kuntz, ScD
Cancer Risk Prediction Models: A Workshop on Development, Evaluation, and Application
National Cancer Institute
May 20-21, 2004
** Results presented are preliminary.
Decision-Analytic Models
• Analytical structures that represent key elements of a disease
• Goal: evaluate policies in terms of costs and health benefits (not estimation)
• Cohort models vs. population-based model
• Risk functions often incorporated

CRC Risk Factors
• Body mass index (BMI)• Smoking• Folate intake (multivitamin use)• Physical activity• Red meat consumption• Fruit and vegetable consumption• Aspirin use• Hormone replacement therapy (HRT)
Individual Risk Functions
• Pr(CRC | BMI, smoking, MV use, etc.)– Annual risk– 10-year probability
• Estimate from cohort studies– Nurses’ Health Study (NHS)– Health Professionals’ Follow-up Study (HPFS)
NHS & HPFS Data Multivariate logistic regression of NHS/HPFS data
provide information about the relationship between risk factors and diagnosed (but not underlying) CRC
Diagnosis freeDetected

Aggregate CRC risk function
Stage-Specific Risk Functions
Goal: decompose the aggregate function into stage-specific risk functions
Disease freeUndetected

• Establish “observed relationship” between risk factor and diagnosed CRC
• Simulate incidence of CRC in hypothetical cohort that is matched to study cohort
• Use regression analysis to examine simulated relationship between risk factor and diagnosed CRC
• Calibrate ORs of simulated data analysis to those of cohort analysis
Our Approach
Example: 50 yo white woman
BMI = 25 kg/m2
Non-smoker
MV user
5 met-hr/wk
2 sv/wk red meat
5 sv/dy fruit/veg
No aspirin use
No HRT use
Lifetime CRC risk:
4.8%
Example: 50 yo white woman BMI = 35 kg/m2
Smoker No MV use
5 met-hr/wk
2 sv/wk red meat
5 sv/dy fruit/veg
No aspirin use
No HRT use
Lifetime CRC risk:
9.7%
