30 juli 2026: Bron: JAMA FDA en persbericht van Freenome, Inc.

De Food and Drug Administration (FDA) heeft de bloedtest SimpleScreen™ van Freenome goedgekeurd - zie NCT04369053SimpleScreen™  is een ctDNA bloedtest voor de vroege opsporing van darmkanker bij volwassenen van 45 jaar en ouder met een gemiddeld risico op de ziekte. De goedkeuring van de SimpleScreen™ darmkankertest werd ondersteund door gegevens uit de PREEMPT darmkanker studie, waaraan 48.995 volwassenen deelnamen met asymptomatische = geen aantoonbare darmkanker van 45 tot 85 jaar met een gemiddeld risico op ontstaan van darmkanker of kwaadaardige darmpoliepen en die bereid waren een routinematige screeningscolonoscopie te ondergaan na bloedafname.

De niet-invasieve ctDNA bloedtest detecteert moleculaire signalen die geassocieerd zijn met darmkanker in het bloed, op basis van celvrij DNA. Een positief resultaat moet worden opgevolgd met een colonoscopie, aangezien ook de bloedtest SimpleScreen™  geen vervanging is voor een diagnostische colonoscopie of voor een surveillance-colonoscopie bij personen met een hoog risico.

De primaire uitkomsten waren:

De volgende resultaten werden waargenomen bij deelnemers in het evalueerbare studiegroep (n=27.010 deelnemers; mediane leeftijd, 57 jaar; 55,8% vrouwen):

  • Gevoeligheid voor darmkanker: 79,2% (57/72; 95% BI, 68,4-86,9)
  • Darmkanker Stadium I: 57,1% (16/28; 95% BI, 39,1-73,5)
  • Darmkanker Stadium II: 100% (15/15; 95% BI, 79,6-100)
  • Darmkanker Stadium III: 82,4% (14/17; 95% BI, 59-93,8)
  • Darmkanker Stadium IV: 100% (11/11; 95% BI, 74,1-100)
  • Onbekend stadium: 100% (1/1; 95% BI, 20,7-100)
  • Specificiteit voor gevorderde darm neoplasie: 91,5% (22.306/24.371; 95% betrouwbaarheidsinterval, 91,2-91,9);
  • NPV = Negatieve voorspellende waarde voor gevorderde darm neoplasie: 90,8% (22.306/24.567; 95% betrouwbaarheidsinterval, 90,7-90,9);
  • PPV = Positieve voorspellende waarde voor gevorderde darm neoplasie: 15,5% (378/2443; 95% betrouwbaarheidsinterval, 14,2-16,8)
  • Gevoeligheid voor gevorderde voorstadia van kanker (secundair eindpunt): 12,5% (321/2567; 95% betrouwbaarheidsinterval, 11,3-13,8).

Omdat de de bloedtest SimpleScreen™ bij volwassenen woonachtig in Amerika werd onderzocht kwamen de onderzoekers met de volgende conclusie:

Na aanpassing aan de demografische gegevens van de Amerikaanse volkstelling bedroegen de prestatiecijfers een gevoeligheid van 81,1% voor darmkanker en een gevoeligheid van 13,7% voor gevorderde voorstadia van kanker.

Alle primaire eindpunten voldeden aan de vooraf vastgestelde acceptatiecriteria.

Abstract

Importance: Colorectal cancer screening is widely recommended but underused. Blood-based screening offers the potential for higher adherence compared with endoscopy or stool-based testing but must first be clinically validated in a screening population.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical performance of an investigational blood-based circulating tumor DNA test for colorectal cancer detection in an average-risk population using colonoscopy with histopathology as the reference method.

Design, setting, and participants: Prospective, multicenter, cross-sectional observational study enrolling participants between May 2020 and April 2022 who were asymptomatic adults aged 45 to 85 years, at average risk of colorectal cancer, and willing to undergo a standard-of-care screening colonoscopy. Participants, staff, and pathologists were blinded to blood test results, and laboratory testing was performed blinded to colonoscopy findings. The study was conducted at 201 centers across 49 US states and the United Arab Emirates. Site-based and mobile phlebotomy were used for blood collection.

Exposures: Participants were required to complete a screening colonoscopy after blood collection.

Main outcomes and measures: The primary end points were sensitivity for colorectal cancer, specificity for advanced colorectal neoplasia (colorectal cancer or advanced precancerous lesions), negative predictive value for advanced colorectal neoplasia, and positive predictive value for advanced colorectal neoplasia. The secondary end point was sensitivity for advanced precancerous lesions.

Results: The median age of participants in the evaluable cohort (n = 27 010) was 57.0 years, and 55.8% were women. Sensitivity for colorectal cancer was 79.2% (57/72; 95% CI, 68.4%-86.9%) and specificity for advanced colorectal neoplasia was 91.5% (22 306/24 371; 95% CI, 91.2%-91.9%). The negative predictive value for advanced colorectal neoplasia was 90.8% (22 306/24 567; 95% CI, 90.7%-90.9%) and the positive predictive value for advanced colorectal neoplasia was 15.5% (378/2443; 95% CI, 14.2%-16.8%). All primary end points met prespecified acceptance criteria. The sensitivity for advanced precancerous lesions was 12.5% (321/2567; 95% CI, 11.3%-13.8%), which did not meet the prespecified acceptance criterion.

Conclusions and relevance: In an average-risk colorectal cancer screening population, a blood-based test demonstrated acceptable accuracy for colorectal cancer detection, but detection of advanced precancerous lesions remains a challenge, and ongoing efforts are needed to improve test sensitivity.

Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04369053.
