Discrete Choice Experiments Exploring Surveillance Preferences in Colorectal Cancer

Individuals at increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) are recommended to undergo regular surveillance colonoscopies. However, colonoscopy is an invasive procedure and places a substantial burden on healthcare resources.

Interval fecal immunochemical tests (FITs) can be beneficial in detecting missed or rapidly developing lesions & may help guide the optimal frequency of surveillance colonoscopies.

At the recent COSA-IPOS 2025, a Joint Meeting for the 52nd COSA Annual Scientific Meeting and 26th IPOS Annual World Congress held in Adelaide, Australia; Prof. Gang Chen presented a series of discrete choice experiments exploring preferences for different surveillance approaches in Australia in his presentation titled: Preferences for colorectal cancer surveillance among individuals at elevated risk: a comparison of labelled and unlabelled discrete choice experiments in Australia.
