Population Colorectal Cancer Screening in Asia: Insights From Established Programs

Key Points

The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of population-based FIT screening and explore personalized approaches for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening.
Analyzed existing population-based FIT screening programs in East Asia.
Reviewed regional evidence for screening practices and age recommendations.
Considered personalized approaches for stratifying risk and adapting policies.
FIT-based screening is shown to be highly effective in reducing CRC incidence.
Proposal to lower screening age based on regional evidence could enhance early detection.
Implementation of risk stratification is expected to further reduce disease burden.

Abstract

Population-based FIT-based screening is a highly effective public health strategy in East Asia. The future of CRC screening is a personalized paradigm, adapting policies such as lowering the screening age based on regional evidence and implementing risk stratification to build upon current successes and further mitigate the region's disease burden.
