Association between empirical dietary inflammatory pattern (EDIP) and survival in patients with stage III colon cancer: Findings from CALGB/SWOG 80702 (Alliance).
Bibliographic record
Abstract
LBA3509 Background: Systemic inflammation has been implicated in colon cancer progression. We examined whether intake of a proinflammatory diet is associated with survival among patients (pts) with stage III colon cancer. Methods: This prospective cohort study was nested within a randomized phase III trial of adjuvant therapy in pts with stage III colon cancer who had undergone curative-intent resection. EDIP score – a validated tool to classify the inflammatory nature of diets – was derived as a cumulative exposure using data from food-frequency questionnaires completed within 6 weeks of randomization and 14-16 months (mo) after randomization. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to assess the associations of EDIP with disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: Of 1625 included pts, the mean (SD) age was 60.9 (10.5) years (yrs). Compared to pts in the lowest EDIP quintile, pts in the highest quintile (a more inflammatory diet) were younger (58.7 ± 10.8 vs 61.3 ± 9.5 yrs old) and more likely to be female (64.0% vs 48.9%) and have worse performance status (ECOG 1-2: 35.7% vs 19.4%). Pts in the highest quintile were less likely to be White (76.6% vs 92.0 %) and more likely to be Black (15.4% vs 3.7%). Baseline aspirin use, assigned chemotherapy (3 mo vs 6 mo), and assigned pharmacotherapy (celecoxib vs placebo) were not significantly different across EDIP quintiles. Compared with pts in the lowest EDIP quintile, pts in the highest quintile had significantly worse OS (multivariable hazard ratio [HR] 1.87, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.26-2.77, P trend =0.01), but not DFS (HR 1.36, 95% CI 0.99-1.86, P trend =0.22). Diet and physical activity jointly influenced OS. Those with lower EDIP scores (quintiles 1-4, 80% of the study population) and higher physical activity (≥9 MET-h/wk) had the best OS (HR 0.37, 95% CI 0.25-0.53) compared with pts in the highest EDIP quintile (20% of the study population) and lower physical activity (<9 MET-h/wk) ( P interaction <0.001). The association between higher EDIP and OS was consistent when analyzed by celecoxib and placebo treatment arms ( P interaction 0.54). The relationship between EDIP and OS did not differ significantly according to aspirin use, with HR 1.60 (95% CI 0.71-3.60) among aspirin users and HR 2.01 (95% CI 1.27-3.16) among aspirin non-users ( P interaction 0.06). Conclusions: Our findings suggest that greater intake of a proinflammatory dietary pattern is associated with worse OS in pts with stage III colon cancer. Regular physical activity may attenuate the association, and further investigation of diet and physical activity intervention is warranted.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
