Cancer Disparities: How Community Engagement Can Improve Rural and Urban Outcomes
OBJECTIVES• Identify cancer disparities among rural and urban
populations in Iowa;
• Discuss the importance of "quadruple diversity" - race, place, age and geography - in clinical and translational research;
• Identify how community engagement can improve cancer disparities among rural and urban populations.

TOBACCO & LUNG CANCER: URBAN VS RURAL IN THE UICC & IOWA
Rural: Variability in access to care (i.e. availability of specialists); Differences in penetrance of social networks & Unique engagement approaches
Urban: Unique epigenetic factors; Contextualization of race/ethnicity & Widespread engagement
opportunities
Shared: Health beliefs/knowledge toward screening and prevention; Lack of innovation in biomarkers to
improve screening and early detection; Financial toxicity associated with late stage diagnosis

SHARED: CANDACE’S STORY
“Cancer is like a hurricane, but community awareness can help”
• Diagnosed with Colon Cancer at the age of 36 while raising 5 daughters as a single parent;
• Knew something was wrong and 1st stop was to go to ER, but sent home;
• While working as a bus driver, went back to ER 1 month later for similar complaints and dx of Ovarian Cysts and Fibroids….BUT
• Another ER visit 6 months later resulted in Colon Cancer Diagnosis
SHARED: A TRANSFORMATIONAL APPROACH TO DIVERSITY

“Reflecting the country’s rich diversity to produce meaningful health outcomes for communities historically underrepresented in biomedical research.”
PRECISION ENGAGEMENT”: A NEW APPROACH TO EVIDENCE BASED ENGAGEMENT
Precision Medicine Precision medicine is an emerging approach for disease treatment and prevention that takes into account individual variability in lifestyle, environment, and biological makeup.
It is a radical shift in how each of us can receive the best care possible based on our unique characteristics.
NIH Definition of Precision Medicine
Precision Engagement
Precision engagement is an innovative concept deployed by the UI Cancer Center OCERIS that takes into account principles of community engagement it factors in where a person lives, what they have access to, the cultural norm of social networks within the community and capitalizes on where and how people organically convene and engage.

RURAL ENGAGEMENT IN THE UICC CATCHMENT AREAStudy: Illinois Rural CancerAssessment (IRCA)A statewide, cross-sectional survey conducted from 01/2017-09/2018 of the health status and needs of adult, rural-dwelling cancer survivors
Rural Cancer Survivors will account for approximate 3.5 Million survivors by 2020. Research shows that compared to urban populations, rural cancer survivors face increased challenges in overall Quality of Life (QOL) compared to urban cancer survivors.

ENGAGING CITIZEN SCIENTISTS TO TEST THE ACCURACY OF A CANCER BIOMARKER IN AFRICAN AMERICAN MEN
Josef Ben Levi EdDMarcus Murray, MPH Tiffany McDowell PhDIvanhoe HallKarriem Watson DHS, MPH, MSAdam Murphy, MD, MBA
Specific Aims Abstract: Our goal is to work with Citizen Scientists to inform and aid in the recruitment of an AA cohort of 125, 40-79y/o men to assess the normal distribution and potential of Prostate Health Index (PHI) as a prostate cancer screening test.
Aim 1. Recruit and train a cohort of 8-12 Citizen Scientists to support the engagement of their social networks and to inform community engagement and recruitment of a cohort of healthy controls.
Aim 2. Expand the cohort of African American men by recruiting 125 asymptomatic African American men age 40-79y/o without elevated PSA or prostate cancer to establish normal age-adjusted ranges for Prostate Health Index.
Aim 3. Compare the distributions of Prostate Health Index scores and serum PSA between three risk groups: African American community dwelling low risk men; African American men with negative prostate biopsies; and African American men with high-grade prostate cancer.
Aim 1. Recruit and train a cohort of 8-12 Citizen Scientists to support the engagement of their social networks and to inform community engagement and recruitment of a cohort of healthy controls.
4 MPIs recruited 8 lay AA males into research based on their interest in AA male health, prostate cancer and/or willingness to engage their social networks for worthwhile research
