The UC Davis Cohort of Pre-Malignant and Malignant GastroIntestinal DisEases (TUMMIE) Study is a prospective longitudinal cohort study designed to improve understanding of the natural history, risk factors, and biological mechanisms underlying gastric pre-malignant conditions and progression to gastric cancer. The study will enroll up to 1,000 adults diagnosed with chronic gastritis, atrophic gastritis, autoimmune gastritis, gastric intestinal metaplasia, gastric dysplasia, or gastric polyps and follow participants for at least five years.
The TUMMIE Study will establish a prospective cohort of adults receiving care within the UC Davis Health System who have been diagnosed with gastric pre-malignant conditions. Participants will be identified through electronic health records, healthcare provider referrals, and StudyPages recruitment. Enrolled participants will complete baseline and annual follow-up assessments and may consent to collection of clinical data and biospecimens.
The study aims to:
Establish a prospective cohort of individuals with gastric pre-malignant conditions to monitor neoplastic progression.
Identify host, tissue, and microbiome biomarkers associated with disease initiation and progression.
Characterize the natural history of gastric pre-malignant lesions. Evaluate lifestyle, behavioral, environmental, and social determinants of health associated with gastric cancer risk.
Clinical information will be obtained through electronic medical record review, including pathology findings, diagnosis dates, treatments, endoscopic procedures, and relevant risk factors. Biospecimens will be analyzed using multi-omics technologies, including DNA sequencing, RNA sequencing, proteomics, metabolomics, and metagenomic profiling. Helicobacter pylori screening will also be performed as part of the research program.
By integrating longitudinal clinical data, epidemiologic information, and molecular profiling, this study seeks to improve risk stratification and inform future prevention, surveillance, and early detection strategies for gastric cancer.
Study population will be selected from University of California Davis Health patients of all races and ethnicities.
Exclusion Criteria:
Pre-malignant progression
Review the number of patients with gastric conditions and any progression to advanced pre-neoplasia/malignancy or cancer and identify and characterize host and microbiome biomarkers associated with initiation and progression of gastric pre-malignancies
Time frame: Baseline, and yearly for 5 years.
Recruitment response rates
Review number of patients response rates who donated full/partial biospecimen samples.
Time frame: Baseline and yearly for 5 years
