The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded Emory University a $139,779 Project Grant under the Cancer Cause and Prevention Research program (CFDA 93.393) to study cancer outcomes among Michigan residents exposed to polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) in 1973. The study aims to understand the potential association between serum PBB levels and cancer incidence and mortality by linking the Michigan PBB registry data to national death and state cancer registries. The project will utilize standardized incidence and mortality ratios to examine cancer burden compared to the general U.S. population, as well as longitudinal and survival models to assess the relationship between PBB exposure and cancer outcomes. Additionally, the team will review their biorepository to identify samples for future nested case-control studies on the biological mechanisms. The award has a project period from July 2025 to June 2027.
