- W2263885354 abstract "Objectives: Previous occupational cohort studies among poultry workers have revealed an excess risk of cancer-related mortality, including deaths due to hematopoietic malignancies. However, specific occupational and non-occupational exposures contributing to this excess risk have yet to be identified. Poultry workers are particularly at high risk since an average of 175,000 chickens are killed daily in poultry plants in the United States. This brings poultry workers into intimate contact with their blood, organs, and secretions, which may harbor transmissible oncogenic viruses. Moreover, they are exposed to potentially carcinogenic chemicals that are emitted during packaging and preparation. Hence, our study was conducted to provide preliminary evidence of which specific poultry related and non-poultry related occupational tasks increase the risk of mortality from hematopoietic cancer among poultry workers. Methods: A pilot case-cohort study was conducted using a combined cohort of 30,411 highly exposed poultry workers and 16,408 control subjects. Exposures pertaining to poultry and non-poultry related tasks were self-reported through telephone interviews from controls and next-of-kin for cases. Hematopoietic cancer mortality risk was assessed using logistic regression odds ratios (OR) and proportional hazard ratios (HR). Results: One hundred fifty-two cases of hematopoietic cancer occurred in this cohort between January 1, 1990 and December 31, 2003. Since this is a feasibility study, exhaustive attempts were not made to identify study subjects and their next of kin. Thus, we report here on the first 52 (69%) of the 75 cases whose next-of-kin were traced. Similarly, of the first 214 controls that were traced, 152 (71%) completed interviews. Preliminary analysis is currently underway to identify the specific task exposures contributing to this excess risk. Conclusion: We expect the results of our study will confirm known risk factors related to hematopoietic cancers, and uncover new risk exposures that have yet to be appreciated in the general population due to their low level exposures. Using high-risk unique populations offers an opportunity to better understand molecular mechanisms that investigators may explore to aid in future drug development.
