1 Liam Murray Cancer Epidemiology and Prevention Research Group Queen’s University Belfast Dublin September 3 rd 2009 The Northern Ireland Barrett’s Register: incidence and risk factors for progression to cancer

2 What is Barrett’s oesophagus? Shaheen NJ, Richter JE. Lancet 2009;373:850-861

3 Why is Barrett’s oesophagus important?

4 OAC trends by sex and deprivation category, England and Wales, 1986–2001 The American Journal of Gastroenterology (2008) 103, 2694–2699

5 Trends in Barrett’s oesophagus - USA Conio et al Gut 2001;48:304-309

8 Cancer risk in Barrett's oesophagus by study size

9 Rationale for the Northern Ireland Barrett’s Register Substantial increase in rate of diagnosis of BO Very large increases in prevalence of diagnosed BO Lack of clarity on cancer risk effectiveness/cost-effectiveness of endoscopic surveillance? Groups at high risk of progression are not well established Biomarkers for progression have not been identified Very limited investigation of the factors associated with progression to cancer any modifiable lifestyle factors? How should BO patients be managed? What advice can Barrett’s patients be given?

18 Conclusions Confirm a low risk of progression to cancer/HGD Groups at higher risk long segment BO dysplasia at baseline age 60-69 at baseline Rate of progression similar in men and women Oesophageal inflammation at diagnosis associated with increased risk of progression? No lifestyle risk factors for progression identified Inadequate data from case note review Prospective cohorts of BO required
