This study explores the influence of race and social determinants of health (SDoH) on healthcare access and outcomes of GBM patients in a large metropolitan area over a decade. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Our institution’s tumor registry (2009-2019) was queried to identify our GBM cohort. Data were supplemented by electronic health records to include demographics, outcome, NCI Comorbidity Index, and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) socioeconomic status (SES) index. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Of the 559 GBM records, 361 unique patients met the inclusion criteria, and 43% were Non-White. Non-White patients predominantly comprised the lowest AHRQ SES index quartile and had longer hospital stays (LOS; p<0.001). White patients accounted for 61% of privately insured patients (p<0.001). Private insurance (p= 0.02) and age < 65 years (p= 0.039) were associated with a higher rate of home discharge. Patients diagnosed with GBM in the emergency department were more likely to be discharged to acute rehab than home (p<0.001). At 2 years, privately insured patients had longer OS (HR= 1.46; p= 0.04). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: In contrast to previous studies, the study demonstrates that GBM affected a higher proportion of Non-White patients. Our data show that SDoH influences multiple outcomes in GBM patients. Efforts to identify and correct these barriers are needed to improve the care of all GBM patients.","PeriodicalId":508693,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical and Translational Science","volume":"165 ","pages":"28 - 28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140771182","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Caudal-type homeobox-2 (CDX2) regulates trophoblast stem cell differentiation. In this study, we investigate the role of placental CDX2 cells in healthy pregnancy and in conditions of preeclampsia. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: To understand the role of CDX2 cells, here we collected human placenta samples from the prospectively enrolled cohort and also the de-identified cohort (n=84). We studied CDX2 distribution, and function using a lentivirus-based approach. We studied the CDX2 expression and functional differences using transcriptomics and examined the function in invasion and vasculogenesis in the presence and absence of the new target genes we have discovered in our study. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Analysis of healthy human placenta samples showed that CDX2-expressing cells were present in fetal chorionic regions and are associated with HLA-G and cytokeratin-7 confirming their trophoblast identity. CDX2 cells demonstrated the potential to form a capillary network akin to endothelial cells. Placental samples from healthy (n=6) and preeclampsia (n=8) patients revealed higher levels of CDX2 expression in preeclampsia. Within preeclampsia CDX2 cells, Natriuretic peptide receptor 1 (NPR1), RET oncogene, and Homeobox D10 (HOXD10) were significantly differentially regulated, including a unique long-non-coding anti-sense RNA (KANSL1-AS1) that affected the function of CDX2 and trophoblast cells in invasion and normal vasculogenesis. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: In sum, based on these observations, the present study postulates that CDX2 cells present in a healthy human placenta may serve as a prospective cellular reservoir for angiogenesis. Conversely, altered gene programs within CDX2 cells cause aberrant vascular function that could contribute to the progression of preeclampsia.","PeriodicalId":508693,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical and Translational Science","volume":"1342 ","pages":"16 - 17"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140773844","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Also, it Investigates the compound’s mechanisms of action beyond caspase 3-dependent pathways. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Three breast cancer cell lines were used: SKBR3, MDA-MB-231, and MDA-MB-468. Two triple-negative breast cancer cell lines are included to address cancer disparities across diverse ethnic backgrounds. Viability assays were conducted to determine half-maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50). Caspase 3 activity assay was performed to evaluate apoptosis as a possible cell death pathway. Wound healing and colony formation assays are used to assess cell migration and clonogenic capacity. Proteomic analysis and phosphoarray analysis are planned for a deeper understanding of SKD’s anticancer properties, as well as testing for caspase 3 independent pathways. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: SKD demonstrated substantial cytotoxicity against all three breast cancer cell lines. IC50 values for SKBR3, MDA-MB-231, and MDA-MB-468 were 60.0 nM, 65.0 nM, and 116 nM, respectively. SKD induces cell death via caspase 3-independent pathways. Further experiments are needed to confirm and elucidate the molecular pathways being impacted. SKD inhibited cancer cell migration and clonogenic potential, suggesting it can reduce tumor growth and metastatic tendencies. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: The study highlights SKD’s cytotoxicity across diverse breast cancer cell lines. It underscores the mechanism of action, a caspase 3 independent pathway. These findings hold promise for the development of innovative anticancer treatments and emphasize the importance of exploring varied cellular responses to mitigate global cancer disparities.","PeriodicalId":508693,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical and Translational Science","volume":"13 6","pages":"26 - 26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140775301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since its development in 2017, there has been an increased focus on science’s impacts on equity. This poster describes efforts to integrate equity into the TSBM. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Adaptation of the TSBM includes 3 phases: 1) literature scan of equity impacts, 2) community engagement listening sessions, and 3) model refinement. First, we conducted a scan of the clinical and translational sciences literature for articles that measured equity impacts associated with the TSBM. From the articles, we extracted both equity considerations related to existing TSBM benefits and potential equity-focused benefits. Next, we will present the dimensions of new and existing benefits to several community member panels engaged in research and evaluation. We will use their input to prioritize and refine adaptations to the model (phase 3). RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Our literature scan identified equity dimensions of the original 30 TSBM benefits and 15 potential benefits for inclusion in the model, including community partnerships, community capacity building, workforce development, and social determinants of health, among others. To ensure that community priorities also inform identification of equity impacts of clinical and translational research, we will review and refine the model through a series of community engagement sessions planned for Fall 2023. The sessions will inform final adaptations, which will result in an expanded approach evaluating the impact of scientific activities to include impacts on health equity. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: The TSBM provides a framework for clinical and translational scientists to plan for, track, and demonstrate the broader impacts of their work. Including equity impacts can help increase consideration of equity in science and help to more clearly make the link between research and equity impact.","PeriodicalId":508693,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical and Translational Science","volume":"58 1","pages":"84 - 84"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140778192","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We seek to implement this new platform to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of therapeutic benefit from ACT via correlation between biodistribution and efficacy. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Utilizing the inherent two-photon luminescent signal of GNRs, we will identify uptake and phenotype of lineage negative hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in vitro. HSCs will be isolated from the bone marrow of 6-week-old C57bl/6 female mice. Following isolation, HSCs will be co-cultured with varying concentrations of GNRs in DMEM w/o sodium pyruvate for 24 hours, tested for viability, and images to quantify uptake and identify phenotyping. CT contrast of our novel Iodine-capped PEGylated gold nanorods will be confirmed through microCT and biodistribution of HSCs at time points after injection will be identified via CT visualizationin vivo. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We expect that increased GNR signaling 24 hours post-transplant in the tumors of glioma-bearing mice will be positively correlated with long term survival following ACT. Published data from our labs have revealed that CCR2+ lineage-negative HSCs significantly accumulate in tumor of glioma-bearing mice12. Importantly, CCR2+ lineage-negative HSCs promote differentiation to dendritic cells in the tumor, increase antitumor T cell responses mediated by cross-priming and cross-presentation, and improve efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibition12. Given that HSCs are important in mediating immunotherapy efficacy, we seek to correlate the accumulation of GNR signaling within the tumor as a marker of treatment response. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Adoptively transferred cells have been imaged using numerous published methods. While promising to the field of immunotherapy, these methods lack significant clinical validation. GNRs have not been used to study hematopoietic stem cells in the context of ACT and brain malignancies.

There is a paucity of literature addressing team science competencies tailored to CRPs. Gaps in training, research, and education can restrict their capability to effectively contribute to team science. Materials/Methods: The CRP Team Science team consisted of 18 members from 7 clinical and translational science awarded institutions. We employed a multi-stage, modified Delphi approach to define “Smart Skills” and leveled team science skills examples using individual and team science competencies of Lotrechianno et al. 1 Results: Overall, 59 team science Smart Skills were identified resulting in 177 skills examples across three levels: fundamental, skilled, and advanced. Two examples of the leveled skillsets for individual and team competencies are illustrated. Two vignettes were created to illustrate application for training. Discussion: This work provides a first-ever application of team science for CRPs by defining specific individual and team science competencies for each level of the CRP career life course. This work will enhance the JTF Domains 7 (Leadership and Professionalism) and 8 (Communication and Teamwork) which are often lacking in CRP training programs.

We highlight two CTSAs with established HCD teams who are utilizing varied approaches to accelerate the use of HCD in health intervention design and community engagement. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The CTSAs at the University of Michigan (MICHR) and the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt CTSI) have dedicated teams of human-centered designers that assist investigators with the application of HCD in their studies. MICHR’s service approach utilizes facilitated Design Sprints with study teams, guiding them from early conception of a research question through the co-design of interventions and innovations with end-users. Pitt CTSI’s training and consultation approach employs a two-day intensive training with group coaching sessions that provide investigators and research staff with skills and knowledge needed to implement HCD within translational research projects. Both hubs offer consultations on methodology for investigators interested in pursuing funding for studies utilizing HCD. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Research teams at both hubs are pursuing HCD to co-design health research interventions and mHealth technologies with end-users locally and internationally, to facilitate meaningful engagement within advisory boards and collaboratives, and to enhance team science.
