Global colorectal cancer (CRC) awareness report 2023
Sponsored Content by BGI GenomicsApr 12 2023Reviewed by Olivia Frost To kick off the first-ever global colorectal cancer awareness report, it is important to note that there were over 1.9 million new cases of colorectal cancer in 2020, making it the third most common cancer worldwide.
Consequently, the burden of CRC is now moving into low-income and middle-income nations as their income rises. These countries require regular CRC screening to improve survival rates and control expenses, considering that cancer takes 10-15 years to develop. Awareness What is the impact of a CRC awareness gap? When analyzing new cancer cases in 2020 compared to the top three cancers identified by respondents, it became clear that there was a noticeable knowledge gap regarding colorectal cancer.
Are there alternatives to coloscopy? Fecal testing presents itself as a cheaper, more flexible, and non-invasive alternative to colonoscopy. Unlike colonoscopy, fecal testing requires no dietary restrictions or medication changes before taking the test.Colonoscopy is the most well-known screening test relative to fecal tests . 40.6% of respondents aged between 35-40 had heard about fecal testing, the lowest among all age groups.
Conversely, only 31.2% of all respondents have never taken their family members for CRC screening. This indicates that hereditary risk groups are more proactively managing their risk through CRC screening.Female respondents are more likely to take their family members for CRC screening than male respondents, with 35.2% of female respondents having done so compared to 27.3% of male respondents.
COLOTECT boasts a high CRC sensitivity of 88%, and for early detection, its sensitivity for advanced adenoma is 46%, which is superior to conventional fecal tests.
