Brief Title: Breast Cancer Screening for Underserved Women: Comparing Outcomes and Lowering Recall Rates With 3D- vs. 2D-mammography
Official Title: Breast Cancer Screening Among Medically Underserved Women in New Mexico: Comparing Outcomes and LOwering Recall Rates With Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (3D Mammography) VErsus Full-field Digital (2D) Mammography. The LOVE New Mexico Study
Study ID: NCT03979729
Brief Summary: Three-dimensional (3D) + two-dimensional (2D)- mammography may have particular value for minority, rural, and underserved women in New Mexico by decreasing recall rates and improving diagnostic sensitivity, thus alleviating some of the unique burdens associated with breast cancer screening in the multi-ethnic and underserved New Mexico patient population. Primary objective: To compare recall rates using 3D + 2D- vs. 2D- mammogram in New Mexico women undergoing screening mammogram between 2013 and 2016. Secondary objectives: Evaluate knowledge, attitudes, perceived barriers, intentions, decisional influences, and other psychosocial/cultural factors influencing breast cancer screening among medically underserved patients and assess what impact 3D + 2D-mammography might have on those perceptions; Determine primary care providers' knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and preferences regarding 3D + 2D- vs. 2D- mammography; evaluate breast cancer detection rate and biopsy positive predictive value for screening mammograms using 3D + 2D- vs. 2D using PENRAD data; evaluate screening outcome, compliance with recall recommendations, breast cancer detection rate, positive predictive value, and demographics of interest in New Mexico women undergoing screening and offered 3-D mammography (retrospective chart review).
Detailed Description: This project will have both a prospective and retrospective component. Retrospective component: Primary Objective: To compare recall rates using 3D + 2D- vs. 2D mammogram in New Mexico women undergoing screening mammograms between 2013 and 2016. Data abstraction from the PENRAD database will be completed by staff in the Department of Radiology. Data abstraction for the chart review of the subgroup of State-funded patients will be conducted with HIPAA-compliant practices from the University of New Mexico Hospital (UNMH) electronic medical record. Data analysis will be performed by study investigators. Prospective component: Secondary Objective 1: To evaluate knowledge, attitudes, perceived barriers, intentions, and decisional influences (conflict, regret, satisfaction), and other psychosocial/cultural factors influencing breast cancer screening (including concerns over recall vs. radiation exposure) among medically underserved patients and to assess what impact 3D + 2D-mammography (with a potentially lower recall rate but higher radiation exposure) might have on those perceptions. Patients in Groups A and B will undergo 1:1 interviews. Patients in Group C will participate in a one-time focus group (6-8 women per group). Secondary Objective 2: To determine primary care providers' knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and preferences regarding 3D + 2D vs. 2D- mammography. Providers will undergo interviews. Secondary Objective 3A: To evaluate breast cancer detection rate and biopsy positive predictive value in New Mexico women undergoing screening mammogram using 3D + 2D- vs. 2D- mammogram using PENRAD data collected from the group as a whole. This objective will be met via database query alone. No individual mammographic images will be evaluated. Secondary Objective 3B: To evaluate screening outcome, compliance with recall recommendations, breast cancer detection rate, positive predictive value, and demographics of interest in New Mexico women undergoing screening and offered 3-D mammography using retrospective chart review. Demographic variables will include age, self-reported ethnicity, city of residence, and health insurance type. This objective will be met via database query alone. No individual mammographic images will be evaluated.
