    Abstract Introduction: Women with obesity are at increased risk of post-menopausal breast cancer and less likely to participate in breast screening. This study investigates the impact of asking women their height and weight within a population-based screening program, and the association of BMI with rescreening status.
    Methods: Data regarding 666,130 screening events from 318,198 women aged 50-74 attending BreastScreen Western Australia between 2016 and 2021 were used to compare crude and age-standardised rescreening rates over time. Mixed effects logistic regression was used to investigate associations of BMI with rescreening status.
    Results: Rescreening rates for women screened since 2016 were within 1.8% points from the previous reporting period, stratified by screening round. Increasing BMI was associated with decreased likelihood of returning to breast screening (OR = 0.993, 95% CI: 0.988-0.998; OR = 0.989, 95% CI: 0.984-0.994; OR = 0.985, 95% CI: 0.982-0.987 for women screening for the first, second and third+ time, respectively).
    Conclusions: This large, prospective study supports implementation of routine height and weight collection within breast screening programs. It shows that asking women their height and weight does not deter them from returning to screening and that women with increased BMI are less likely to rescreen, highlighting a need for targeted interventions to improve screening barriers for women living with obesity.

    Abstract Rapid advancements in cancer discovery, diagnosis, and treatment options available to patients with cancer have highlighted the need for enhancements in clinical trial design. The drug development process is costly, with more than 80% of trials failing to reach recruitment targets. Historical approaches to trial design are increasingly burdensome and lack real-world application in the intent-to-treat patient population. Equitable access to clinical trials combined with increased availability of real-world data are creating new opportunities for inclusiveness, improved outcomes, and evidence-based advances in therapies that will generate more generalizable data to better inform clinical decision-making. Clinical trials need to be inclusive if lifesaving data are not to be missed and investigational therapies are to be more accessible to a broader patient base. Real-world data can facilitate the conduct of studies that are identifying and understanding where disparities exist and developing new interventions to improve patient care. The clinical trial design process should be a multistakeholder and consensus- and evidence-driven process in which stakeholders are working together across the health care industry to close the care gap and ensure elimination of barriers that prevent equal access to specialized cancer care and advanced therapies available in clinical trials. The patient voice is essential throughout the trial process; however, it is often excluded from the design process. Integrating real-world data as well as ensuring patient involvement in early trial design during drug development can enhance enrollment and retention, leading to greater diversity.

    Abstract Introduction: In the United States, clinical guidelines recommend daily use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) amongst individuals diagnosed with Barrett's esophagus to decrease the risk of progression to dysplasia and neoplasia. Prior studies documenting adherence to PPIs in this population have not characterized heterogeneity in adherence patterns. Factors that may relate to adherence are incompletely described.
    Methods: We used administrative claims data from the Merative MarketScan Commercial Claims and Encounters database to conduct a retrospective study of adherence to prescription PPIs. A cohort of individuals diagnosed with incident Barrett's esophagus between 2010 and 2019 was identified. Group-based trajectory models were generated to detect longitudinal adherence subgroups.
    Results: 79 701 individuals with a new diagnosis of Barrett's esophagus were identified. The best fitting model detected five distinct adherence trajectory groups: consistently high (44% of the population), moderate decline (18%), slow decline (12%), rapid decline (10%), and decline-then-increase (16%). Compared to individuals starting PPIs, those already using PPIs were less likely to have a declining adherence pattern. Other factors associated with membership in a declining adherence group included (but were not limited to): female sex, having a past diagnosis of anxiety or depression, and having one or more emergency department visits in the past year.
    Discussion: Using an exploratory method, we detected heterogeneity in adherence to prescription PPIs. Less than half of individuals were classified into the consistently high adherence group, suggesting that many individuals with Barrett's esophagus receive inadequate pharmacologic therapy.

    Abstract Purpose: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends recombinant zoster vaccination (RZV) for adults ≥ 50 years to prevent herpes zoster (HZ) and its sequelae. Initially, no distinct recommendation was made for immunocompromised adults, who experience higher HZ rates and more severe outcomes. We characterized receipt of first RZV dose (initiation) and both doses (completion) over time, and the impact of immune function on RZV uptake among adults aged 50-64 years in the United States.
    Methods: We identified RZV claims from the IBM MarketScan database between 1/1/2018 and 12/31/2019. We characterized immunocompromised enrollees as having malignancy, HIV, solid organ transplant, primary immunosuppression, or medication-induced immunosuppression using inpatient, outpatient, and prescription claims in the 6 months prior to study start. We evaluated patterns of vaccine uptake by demographic and healthcare access characteristics and immune status.
    Results: The cumulative incidence of RZV initiation during the study period was 10.0%. Incidence increased with age and number of medical office visits, and was higher among women, urban residents, high-deductible insurance beneficiaries, and those who were immunocompromised compared to immunocompetent. Among immunocompromised adults, RZV initiation was highest among those with HIV and primary immunodeficiencies. Of those who initiated RZV, 89.5% received both doses. RZV completion was highest among those who received the first dose at a pharmacy. Most enrollees (88.6%) who completed RZV vaccination did so within the recommended dosing schedule.
    Conclusions: RZV uptake was low in the two years since the CDC recommendation, and differed by demographic, healthcare access, and clinical characteristics. Initiation rates were higher among immunocompromised adults compared to immunocompetent adults, despite no CDC recommendation for vaccination in these groups during the study period. The CDC has since recommended RZV for immunocompromised individuals, and our findings may inform efforts to increase RZV uptake in individuals at higher risk of severe disease.

    Abstract The response to infection is generally heterogeneous and diverse, with some individuals remaining asymptomatic while others present with severe disease or a diverse range of symptoms. Here, we address the role of host genetics on immune phenotypes and clinical outcomes following viral infection by studying genetically diverse mice from the Collaborative Cross (CC), allowing for use of a small animal model with controlled genetic diversity while maintaining genetic replicates. We demonstrate variation by deeply profiling a broad range of innate and adaptive immune cell phenotypes at steady-state in 63 genetically distinct CC mouse strains and link baseline immune signatures with virologic and clinical disease outcomes following infection of mice with herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) or severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). This work serves as a resource for CC strain selection based on steady-state immune phenotypes or disease presentation upon viral infection, and further, points to possible pre-infection immune correlates of survival and early viral clearance upon infection.

    Abstract Purpose of review: To describe approaches to measuring deprescribing and associated outcomes in studies of patients approaching end of life (EOL).
    Recent findings: We reviewed studies published through 2020 that evaluated deprescribing in patients with limited life expectancy and approaching EOL. Deprescribing includes reducing the number of medications, decreasing medication dose(s), and eliminating potentially inappropriate medications. Tools such as STOPPFrail, OncPal, and the Unnecessary Drug Use Measure can facilitate deprescribing. Outcome measures vary and selection of measures should align with the operationalized deprescribing definition used by study investigators.
    Summary: EOL deprescribing considerations include medication appropriateness in the context of patient goals for care, expected benefit from medication given life expectancy, and heightened potential for medication-related harm as death nears. Additional data are needed on how EOL deprescribing impacts patient quality of life, caregiver burden, and out-of-pocket medication-related costs to patients and caregivers. Investigators should design deprescribing studies with this information in mind.
