Abstract: BackgroundSurvival from metastatic cutaneous melanoma is substantially lower than for localized disease. Treatments for metastatic melanoma have been limited, but remarkable clinical improvements have been reported in clinical trials in the last decade. We described the characteristics of US patients diagnosed with cutaneous melanoma during 2001-2013 and assessed trends in short-term survival for distant-stage disease.MethodsTrends in 1-year net survival were estimated using the Pohar Perme estimator, controlling for background mortality with life tables of all-cause mortality rates by county of residence, single year of age, sex, and race for each year 2001-2013. We fitted a flexible parametric survival model on the log-hazard scale to estimate the effect of race on the hazard of death because of melanoma and estimated 1-year net survival by race.ResultsOnly 4.4% of the 425 915 melanomas were diagnosed at a distant stage, cases diagnosed at a distant stage are more commonly men, older patients, and African Americans. Age-standardized, 1-year net survival for distant-stage disease was stable at approximately 43% during 2001-2010. From 2010 onward, survival improved rapidly, reaching 58.9% (95% confidence interval = 56.6% to 61.2%) for patients diagnosed in 2013. Younger patients experienced the largest improvement. Survival for distant-stage disease increased in both Blacks and Whites but was consistently lower in Blacks.ConclusionsOne-year survival for distant-stage melanoma improved during 2001-2013, particularly in younger patients and those diagnosed since 2010. This improvement may be a consequence of the introduction of immune-checkpoint-inhibitors and other targeted treatments for metastatic and unresectable disease. Persistent survival inequalities exist between Blacks and Whites, suggesting differential access to treatment.

Abstract: Objective. Ovarian cancers comprise several histologically distinct tumour groups with widely different prognosis. We aimed to describe the worldwide distribution of ovarian cancer histology and to understand what role this may play in international variation in survival. Methods. The CONCORD programme is the largest population-based study of global trends in cancer survival. Data on 681,759 women diagnosed during 1995–2009 with cancer of the ovary, fallopian tube, peritoneum and retroperitonum in 51 countries were included.We categorised ovarian tumours into six histological groups, and explored the worldwide distribution of histology. Results. During 2005–2009, type II epithelial tumours were the most common. The proportion was much higher in Oceania (73.1%), North America (73.0%) and Europe (72.6%) than in Central and South America (65.7%) and Asia (56.1%). By contrast, type I epithelial tumours were more common in Asia (32.5%), compared with only 19.4% in North America. From 1995 to 2009, the proportion of type II epithelial tumours increased from 68.6% to 71.1%, while the proportion of type I epithelial tumours fell from 23.8% to 21.2%. The proportions of germ cell tumours, sex cord-stromal tumours, other specific non-epithelial tumours and tumours of non-specific morphology all remained stable over time. Conclusions. The distribution of ovarian cancer histology varieswidely worldwide. Type I epithelial, germcell and sex cord-stromal tumours are generally associated with higher survival than type II tumours, so the proportion of these tumours may influence survival estimates for all ovarian cancers combined. The distribution of histological groups should be considered when comparing survival between countries and regions.

Abstract: Objective. Ovarian cancer comprises several histological groups with widely differing levels of survival. We aimed to explore international variation in survival for each group to help interpret international differences in survival from all ovarian cancers combined. We also examined differences in stage-specific survival. Methods. The CONCORD programme is the largest population-based study of global trends in cancer survival, including data from 60 countries for 695,932 women (aged 15–99 years) diagnosed with ovarian cancer during 1995–2009. We defined six histological groups: type I epithelial, type II epithelial, germ cell, sex cord-stromal, other specific non-epithelial and non-specific morphology, and estimated age-standardised 5-year net survival for each country by histological group. We also analysed data from67 cancer registries for 233,659 women diagnosed from 2001 to 2009, for whom information on stage at diagnosis was available. We estimated agestandardised 5-year net survival by stage at diagnosis (localised or advanced). Results. Survival fromtype I epithelial ovarian tumours for women diagnosed during 2005–09 ranged from40 to 70%. Survival from type II epithelial tumours was much lower (20–45%). Survival fromgermcell tumours was higher than that of type II epithelial tumours, but also varied widely between countries. Survival for sex-cord stromal tumours was higher than for the five other groups. Survival from localised tumours was much higher than for advanced disease (80% vs. 30%). Conclusions. There is wide variation in survival between histological groups, and stage at diagnosis remains an important factor in ovarian cancer survival. International comparisons of ovarian cancer survival should incorporate histology.

Abstract: Worldwide data for cancer survival are scarce. We aimed to initiate worldwide surveillance of cancer survival by central analysis of population-based registry data, as a metric of the eff ectiveness of health systems, and to inform global policy on cancer control. Methods Individual tumour records were submitted by 279 population-based cancer registries in 67 countries for 25·7 million adults (age 15–99 years) and 75 000 children (age 0–14 years) diagnosed with cancer during 1995–2009 and followed up to Dec 31, 2009, or later. We looked at cancers of the stomach, colon, rectum, liver, lung, breast (women), cervix, ovary, and prostate in adults, and adult and childhood leukaemia. Standardised quality control procedures were applied; errors were corrected by the registry concerned. We estimated 5-year net survival, adjusted for background mortality in every country or region by age (single year), sex, and calendar year, and by race or ethnic origin in some countries. Estimates were age-standardised with the International Cancer Survival Standard weights. Findings 5-year survival from colon, rectal, and breast cancers has increased steadily in most developed countries. For patients diagnosed during 2005–09, survival for colon and rectal cancer reached 60% or more in 22 countries around the world; for breast cancer, 5-year survival rose to 85% or higher in 17 countries worldwide. Liver and lung cancer remain lethal in all nations: for both cancers, 5-year survival is below 20% everywhere in Europe, in the range 15–19% in North America, and as low as 7–9% in Mongolia and Thailand. Striking rises in 5-year survival from prostate cancer have occurred in many countries: survival rose by 10–20% between 1995–99 and 2005–09 in 22 countries in South America, Asia, and Europe, but survival still varies widely around the world, from less than 60% in Bulgaria and Thailand to 95% or more in Brazil, Puerto Rico, and the USA. For cervical cancer, national estimates of 5-year survival range from less than 50% to more than 70%; regional variations are much wider, and improvements between 1995–99 and 2005–09 have generally been slight. For women diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2005–09, 5-year survival was 40% or higher only in Ecuador, the USA, and 17 countries in Asia and Europe. 5-year survival for stomach cancer in 2005–09 was high (54–58%) in Japan and South Korea, compared with less than 40% in other countries. By contrast, 5-year survival from adult leukaemia in Japan and South Korea (18–23%) is lower than in most other countries. 5-year survival from childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia is less than 60% in several countries, but as high as 90% in Canada and four European countries, which suggests major defi ciencies in the management of a largely curable disease. Interpretation International comparison of survival trends reveals very wide diff erences that are likely to be attributable to diff erences in access to early diagnosis and optimum treatment. Continuous worldwide surveillance of cancer survival should become an indispensable source of information for cancer patients and researchers and a stimulus for politicians to improve health policy and health-care systems This work was funded by the Canadian Partnership Against Cancer, Cancer Focus Northern Ireland, Cancer Institute New South Wales, Cancer Research UK (C1336/A16148), US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC; 12FED03123, ACO12036), Swiss Re, Swiss Cancer Research foundation, Swiss Cancer League, and the University of Kentucky (3049024672-12-568)

9. Geographic assessment of breast cancer screening by towns, zip codes, and census tracts.

Author: Sheehan TJ, Gershman ST, MacDougall LA, Danley RA, Mroszczyk M, Sorensen AM, and Kulldorff M
Abstract: Early detection is the primary way to control breast cancer, and mammography screening can reduce breast cancer mortality 30 to 40 percent among women aged 50 years and older. Geographic areas with a high proportion of cases with latestage diagnoses may reflect gaps in screening efforts. We used a spatial scan statistic, adjusting for the multitude of possible region locations and sizes, to test whether any particular region of Massachusetts had statistically significant excesses of late-stage diagnoses during the period 1982 to 1986. The novel geographic analysis technique utilized here can also be used in the control of other types of cancer. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Background: The Oncotype DX Genomic Prostate Score (ODX-GPS) is a gene expression assay that predicts disease aggressiveness. The objective of this study was to identify sociodemographic and regional factors associated with ODX-GPS uptake., Methods: Data from Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results registries on men with localized prostate cancer with a Gleason score of 3 + 3 or 3 + 4, PSA ≤20 ng/mL, and stage T1c to T2c disease from 2013 through 2017 were linked with ODX-GPS data. Census-tract level neighborhood socioeconomic status (nSES) quintiles were constructed using a composite socioeconomic score. Multivariable logistic regression was used to estimate the associations of ODX-GPS uptake with age at diagnosis, race and ethnicity, nSES, geographic region, insurance type, and marital status, accounting for National Comprehensive Cancer Network risk group, year of diagnosis, and clustering by census tract., Results: Among 111,434 eligible men, 5.5% had ODX-GPS test uptake. Of these, 78.3% were non-Hispanic White, 9.6% were Black, 6.7% were Hispanic, and 3.6% were Asian American. Black men had the lowest odds of ODX-GPS uptake (odds ratio, 0.70; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.63-0.76). Those in the highest versus lowest quintile of nSES were 1.64 times more likely (95% CI, 1.38-2.94) to have ODX-GPS uptake. The odds of ODX-GPS uptake were statistically significantly higher among men residing in the Northeast, West, and Midwest compared to the South., Conclusions: Disparities in ODX-GPS uptake by race, ethnicity, nSES, and geographical region were identified. Concerted efforts should be made to ensure that this clinical test is equitably available., (© 2024 American Cancer Society.)

Abstract: Background: Precision medicine has become a mainstay of cancer care in recent years. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program has been an authoritative source of cancer statistics and data since 1973. However, tumor genomic information has not been adequately captured in the cancer surveillance data, which impedes population-based research on molecular subtypes. To address this, the SEER Program has developed and implemented a centralized process to link SEER registries' tumor cases with genomic test results that are provided by molecular laboratories to the registries., Methods: Data linkages were carried out following operating procedures for centralized linkages established by the SEER Program. The linkages used Match*Pro, a probabilistic linkage software, and were facilitated by the registries' trusted third party (an honest broker). The SEER registries provide to NCI limited datasets that undergo preliminary evaluation prior to their release to the research community., Results: Recently conducted genomic linkages included OncotypeDX Breast Recurrence Score, OncotypeDX Breast Ductal Carcinoma in Situ, OncotypeDX Genomic Prostate Score, Decipher Prostate Genomic Classifier, DecisionDX Uveal Melanoma, DecisionDX Preferentially Expressed Antigen in Melanoma, DecisionDX Melanoma, and germline tests results in Georgia and California SEER registries., Conclusions: The linkages of cancer cases from SEER registries with genomic test results obtained from molecular laboratories offer an effective approach for data collection in cancer surveillance. By providing de-identified data to the research community, the NCI's SEER Program enables scientists to investigate numerous research inquiries., (© The Author(s) 2024.

Subjects: Pregnancy, Infant, Male, Child, Humans, Female, Cohort Studies, Reproductive Techniques, Assisted adverse effects, Neoplasms etiology, Infertility etiology, Leukemia
Abstract: Study Question: Is there an association between fertility status, method of conception and the risks of birth defects and childhood cancer?, Summary Answer: The risk of childhood cancer had two independent components: (i) method of conception and (ii) presence, type and number of birth defects., What Is Known Already: The rarity of the co-occurrence of birth defects, cancer and ART makes studying their association challenging. Prior studies have indicated that infertility and ART are associated with an increased risk of birth defects or cancer but have been limited by small sample size and inadequate statistical power, failure to adjust for or include plurality, differences in definitions and/or methods of ascertainment, lack of information on ART treatment parameters or study periods spanning decades resulting in a substantial historical bias as ART techniques have improved., Study Design, Size, Duration: This was a population-based cohort study linking ART cycles reported to the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology Clinic Outcome Reporting System (SART CORS) from 1 January 2004 to 31 December 2017 that resulted in live births in 2004-2018 in Massachusetts and North Carolina and live births in 2004-2017 in Texas and New York. A 10:1 sample of non-ART births were chosen within the same time period as the ART birth. Non-ART siblings were identified through the ART mother's information. Children from non-ART births were classified as being born to women who conceived with ovulation induction or IUI (OI/IUI) when there was an indication of infertility treatment on the birth certificate, and the woman did not link to the SART CORS; all others were classified as being naturally conceived., Participants/materials, Setting, Methods: The study population included 165 125 ART children, 31 524 non-ART siblings, 12 451 children born to OI/IUI-treated women and 1 353 440 naturally conceived children. All study children were linked to their respective State birth defect registries to identify major defects diagnosed within the first year of life. We classified children with major defects as either chromosomal (i.e. presence of a chromosomal defect with or without any other major defect) or nonchromosomal (i.e. presence of a major defect but having no chromosomal defect), or all major defects (chromosomal and nonchromosomal), and calculated rates per 1000 children. Logistic regression models were used to generate adjusted odds ratios (AORs) and 95% CIs of the risk of birth defects by conception group (OI/IUI, non-ART sibling and ART by oocyte source and embryo state) with naturally conceived children as the reference, adjusted for paternal and maternal ages; maternal race and ethnicity, education, BMI, parity, diabetes, hypertension; and for plurality, infant sex and State and year of birth. All study children were also linked to their respective State cancer registries. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs of cancer by birth defect status (including presence of a defect, type and number of defects), and conception group., Main Results and the Role of Chance: A total of 29 571 singleton children (2.0%) and 3753 twin children (3.5%) had a major birth defect (chromosomal or nonchromosomal). Children conceived with ART from autologous oocytes had increased risks for nonchromosomal defects, including blastogenesis, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and, for males only, genitourinary defects, with AORs ranging from 1.22 to 1.85; children in the autologous-fresh group also had increased risks for musculoskeletal (AOR 1.28, 95% CI 1.13, 1.45) and orofacial defects (AOR 1.40, 95% CI 1.17, 1.68). Within the donor oocyte group, the children conceived from fresh embryos did not have increased risks in any birth defect category, whereas children conceived from thawed embryos had increased risks for nonchromosomal defects (AOR 1.20, 95% CI 1.03, 1.40) and blastogenesis defects (AOR 1.74, 95% CI 1.14, 2.65). The risk of cancer was increased among ART children in the autologous-fresh group (HR 1.31, 95% CI 1.08, 1.59) and non-ART siblings (1.34, 95% CI 1.02, 1.76). The risk of leukemia was increased among children in the OI/IUI group (HR 2.15, 95% CI 1.04, 4.47) and non-ART siblings (HR 1.63, 95% CI 1.02, 2.61). The risk of central nervous system tumors was increased among ART children in the autologous-fresh group (HR 1.68, 95% CI 1.14, 2.48), donor-fresh group (HR 2.57, 95% CI 1.04, 6.32) and non-ART siblings (HR 1.84, 95% CI 1.12, 3.03). ART children in the autologous-fresh group were also at increased risk for solid tumors (HR 1.39, 95% CI 1.09, 1.77). A total of 127 children had both major birth defects and cancer, of which 53 children (42%) had leukemia. The risk of cancer had two independent components: (i) method of conception (described above) and (ii) presence, type and number of birth defects. The presence of nonchromosomal defects increased the cancer risk, greater for two or more defects versus one defect, for all cancers and each type evaluated. The presence of chromosomal defects was strongly associated with cancer risk (HR 8.70 for all cancers and HR 21.90 for leukemia), further elevated in the presence of both chromosomal and nonchromosomal defects (HR 21.29 for all cancers, HR 64.83 for leukemia and HR 4.71 for embryonal tumors). Among the 83 946 children born from ART in the USA in 2019 compared to their naturally conceived counterparts, these risks translate into an estimated excess of 761 children with major birth defects, 31 children with cancer and 11 children with both major birth defects and cancer., Limitations, Reasons for Caution: In the SART CORS database, it was not possible to differentiate method of embryo freezing (slow freezing versus vitrification), and data on ICSI were only available in the fresh embryo ART group. In the OI/IUI group, it was not possible to differentiate type of non-ART treatment utilized, and in both the ART and OI/IUI groups, data were unavailable on duration of infertility. Since OI/IUI is underreported on the birth certificate, some OI/IUI children were likely included among the naturally conceived children, which will decrease the difference between all the groups and the naturally conceived children., Wider Implications of the Findings: The use of ART is associated with increased risks of major nonchromosomal birth defects. The presence of birth defects is associated with greater risks for cancer, which adds to the baseline risk in the ART group. Although this study does not show causality, these findings indicate that children conceived with ART, non-ART siblings, and all children with birth defects should be monitored more closely for the subsequent development of cancer., Study Funding/competing Interest(s): This project was supported by grant R01 HD084377 from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.

Abstract: Background: Testing for BRCA1/2 pathogenic variants is recommended for women aged ≤45 years with breast cancer. Some studies have found racial/ethnic and socioeconomic disparities in testing. We linked Massachusetts' All-Payer Claims Database with Massachusetts Cancer Registry data to assess factors associated with BRCA1/2 testing among young women with breast cancer in Massachusetts, a state with high levels of access to care and equitable insurance coverage of breast cancer gene (BRCA) testing., Methods: We identified breast cancer diagnoses in the Massachusetts Cancer Registry from 2010 to 2013 and linked registry data with Massachusetts All-Payer Claims Data from 2010 to 2014 among women aged ≤45 years with private insurance or Medicaid. We used multivariable logistic regression to examine factors associated with BRCA1/2 testing within 6 months of diagnosis., Results: The study population included 2424 women; 80.3% were identified as non-Hispanic White, 6.4% non-Hispanic Black, and 6.3% Hispanic. Overall, 54.9% received BRCA1/2 testing within 6 months of breast cancer diagnosis. In adjusted analyses, non-Hispanic Black women had less than half the odds of testing compared with non-Hispanic White women (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 0.45, 95% CI = 0.31, 0.64). Medicaid-insured women had half the odds of testing compared with privately-insured women (OR = 0.51, 95% CI = 0.41, 0.63). Living in lower-income areas was also associated with lower odds of testing. Having an academically-affiliated oncology clinician was not associated with testing., Conclusion: Socioeconomic and racial/ethnic disparities exist in BRCA1/2 testing among women with breast cancer in Massachusetts, despite equitable insurance coverage of testing. Further research should examine whether disparities have persisted with growing testing awareness and availability over time., (© 2022 The Authors.

Subjects: Adolescent, Female, Humans, Live Birth epidemiology, Massachusetts epidemiology, Pregnancy, Pregnancy Rate, Pregnancy, Multiple, Registries, Neoplasms epidemiology, Neoplasms therapy, Reproductive Techniques, Assisted
Abstract: Purpose: To investigate assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes among adolescent and young-adult female cancer survivors., Methods: The Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology Clinic Outcome Reporting System (SART CORS) data were linked to the Massachusetts Cancer Registry for 90,928 ART cycles in Massachusetts to women ≥ 18 years old from 2004 to 2013. To estimate relative risks (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI), we used generalized estimating equations with a log link that accounted for multiple cycles per woman and a priori adjusted for maternal age and cycle year. The main outcomes of interest were ART treatment patterns; number of autologous oocytes retrieved, fertilized, and transferred; and rates of implantation, clinical intrauterine gestation (CIG), live birth, and pregnancy loss., Results: We saw no difference in number of oocytes retrieved (aRR: 0.95 (0.89-1.02)) or proportion of autologous oocytes fertilized (aRR: 0.99 (0.95-1.03)) between autologous cycles with and without a history of cancer; however, cancer survivors required a higher total FSH administered (aRR: 1.12 (1.06-1.19)). Among autologous cycle starts, cycles in women with a history of cancer were less likely to result in CIG compared to no history of cancer (aRR: 0.73 (0.65-0.83)); this relationship was absent from donor cycles (aRR: 1.01 (0.85-1.20)). Once achieving CIG, donor cycles for women with a history of cancer were two times more likely to result in pregnancy loss (aRR: 1.99 (1.26-3.16))., Conclusions: Our analysis suggests that cancer may influence ovarian stimulation response, requiring more FSH and resulting in lower CIG among cycle starts., (© 2021.

Abstract: Background: Massachusetts is a northeastern state with universally mandated health insurance since 2006. Although Black men have generally worse prostate cancer outcomes, emerging data suggest that they may experience equivalent outcomes within a fully insured system. In this setting, the authors analyzed treatments and outcomes of non-Hispanic White and Black men in Massachusetts., Methods: White and Black men who were 20 years old or older and had been diagnosed with localized intermediate- or high-risk nonmetastatic prostate cancer in 2004-2015 were identified in the Massachusetts Cancer Registry. Adjusted logistic regression models were used to assess predictors of definitive therapy. Adjusted and unadjusted survival models compared cancer-specific mortality. Interaction terms were then used to assess whether the effect of race varied between counties., Results: A total of 20,856 men were identified. Of these, 19,287 (92.5%) were White. There were significant county-level differences in the odds of receiving definitive therapy and survival. Survival was worse for those with high-risk cancer (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 1.50; 95% CI, 1.4-1.60) and those with public insurance (adjusted HR for Medicaid, 1.69; 95% CI, 1.38-2.07; adjusted HR for Medicare, 1.2; 95% CI, 1.14-1.35). Black men were less likely to receive definitive therapy (adjusted odds ratio, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.74-0.83) but had a 17% lower cancer-specific mortality (adjusted HR, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.7-0.99)., Conclusions: Despite lower odds of definitive treatment, Black men experience decreased cancer-specific mortality in comparison with White men in Massachusetts. These data support the growing body of research showing that Black men may achieve outcomes equivalent to or even better than those of White men within the context of a well-insured population., Lay Summary: There is a growing body of evidence showing that the excess risk of death among Black men with prostate cancer may be caused by disparities in access to care, with few or no disparities seen in universally insured health systems such as the Veterans Affairs and US Military Health System. Therefore, the authors sought to assess racial disparities in prostate cancer in Massachusetts, which was the earliest US state to mandate universal insurance coverage (in 2006). Despite lower odds of definitive treatment, Black men with prostate cancer experience reduced cancer-specific mortality in comparison with White men in Massachusetts. These data support the growing body of research showing that Black men may achieve outcomes equivalent to or even better than those of White men within the context of a well-insured population., (© 2021 American Cancer Society.)

Subjects: Humans, Male, Massachusetts epidemiology, Risk Factors, Smokers, Smoking adverse effects, Neoplasms epidemiology, Smoking Cessation
Abstract: Purpose: In cancer patients, cigarette smoking is causally linked with increased mortality. We examined the relationship between smoking status at the time of diagnosis and cancer mortality to help estimate the scope of smoking cessation services required to meet the needs of cancer patients., Methods: We studied the ten most common cancers in Massachusetts, 2008-2013 including 175,489 incident cases and used smoking status at the time of diagnosis to provide smoking prevalence. We calculated adjusted hazard ratios of all-cause mortality comparing smoker subgroups., Results: Smoking prevalence was more than threefold higher for lung cancer and more than twofold higher for head and neck cancer and bladder cancer than in the general population. Cancer cases who smoked at the time of diagnosis had a higher adjusted mortality rate than cancer cases who were former smokers. The three sites with the highest increased hazard ratios comparing current smokers with former smokers were cancers of the thyroid (HR = 1.67, 95% CI 1.14-2.45), head and neck (HR = 1.65, 95% CI 1.39-1.95), and prostate (HR = 1.60, 95% CI 1.36-1.90)., Conclusions: Smoking remains high among cancer patients. More widespread adoption of smoking cessation programs among cancer patients may play a substantial role in improving cancer morbidity and mortality., (Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Inc.

Subjects: Adolescent, Adult, Cesarean Section, Diabetes, Gestational epidemiology, Female, Humans, Hypertension, Pregnancy-Induced epidemiology, Infant, Low Birth Weight, Infant, Newborn, Infertility therapy, Massachusetts, Pregnancy, Pregnancy Outcome, Premature Birth epidemiology, Registries, Reproductive Techniques, Assisted, Young Adult, Infertility epidemiology, Neoplasms epidemiology
Abstract: Purpose: Investigate the relationship between history of cancer and adverse pregnancy outcomes according to subfertility/fertility treatment., Methods: Deliveries (2004-2013) from Massachusetts (MA) Registry of Vital Records and Statistics were linked to MA assisted reproductive technology data, hospital discharge records, and Cancer Registry. The relative risks (RR) and 95% confidence intervals of adverse outcomes (gestational diabetes (GDM), gestational hypertension (GHTN), cesarean section (CS), low birth weight (LBW), small for gestational age (SGA), preterm birth (PTB), neonatal mortality, and prolonged neonatal hospital stay) were modeled with log-link and Poisson distribution generalized estimating equations. Differences by history of subfertility/fertility treatment were investigated with likelihood ratio tests., Results: Among 662,630 deliveries, 2,983 had a history of cancer. Women with cancer history were not at greater risk of GDM, GHTN, or CS. However, infants born to women with prior cancer had higher risk of LBW (RR: 1.19 [1.07-1.32]), prolonged neonatal hospital stay (RR: 1.16 [1.01-1.34]), and PTB (RR: 1.19 [1.07-1.32]). We found clinically and statistically significant differences in the relationship between cancer history and SGA by subfertility/fertility treatment (p value, test for heterogeneity = 0.02); among deliveries with subfertility or fertility treatment, those with a history of cancer experienced a greater risk of SGA (RRsubfertile: 1.36 [1.02-1.83])., Conclusions: Women with a history of cancer had greater risk of some adverse pregnancy outcomes; this relationship varied by subfertility and fertility treatment.

Abstract: Importance: Children with birth defects have a greater risk of developing cancer, but this association has not yet been evaluated in children conceived with in vitro fertilization (IVF)., Objective: To assess whether the association between birth defects and cancer is greater in children conceived via IVF compared with children conceived naturally., Design, Setting, and Participants: This cohort study of live births, birth defects, and cancer from Massachusetts, New York, North Carolina, and Texas included 1 000 639 children born to fertile women and 52 776 children conceived via IVF (using autologous oocytes and fresh embryos) during 2004-2016 in Massachusetts and North Carolina, 2004-2015 in New York, and 2004-2013 in Texas. Children were followed up for an average of 5.7 years (6 008 985 total person-years of exposure). Data analysis was conducted from April 1 to August 31, 2020., Exposures: Conception by IVF for state residents who gave birth to liveborn singletons during the study period. Birth defect diagnoses recorded by statewide registries., Main Outcomes and Measures: Cancer diagnosis as recorded by state cancer registries. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs for birth defect-cancer associations separately in fertile and IVF groups., Results: A total of 1 000 639 children (51.3% boys; 69.7% White; and 38.3% born between 2009-2012) were in the fertile group and 52 776 were in the IVF group (51.3% boys; 81.3% White; and 39.6% born between 2009-2012). Compared with children without birth defects, cancer risks were higher among children with a major birth defect in the fertile group (hazard ratio [HR], 3.15; 95% CI, 2.40-4.14) and IVF group (HR, 6.90; 95% CI, 3.73-12.74). The HR of cancer among children with a major nonchromosomal defect was 2.07 (95% CI, 1.47-2.91) among children in the fertile group and 4.04 (95% CI, 1.86-8.77) among children in the IVF group. The HR of cancer among children with a chromosomal defect was 15.45 (95% CI, 10.00-23.86) in the fertile group and 38.91 (95% CI, 15.56-97.33) in the IVF group., Conclusions and Relevance: This study found that among children with birth defects, those conceived via IVF were at greater risk of developing cancer compared with children conceived naturally.

19. Cancer Incidence Rate Variations among the Chinese, South Asian, and Vietnamese in Massachusetts, 2011-2015.

Author: Knowlton R, Gershman ST, and MacMillan A
Subjects: China epidemiology, Female, Humans, Incidence, Male, Massachusetts epidemiology, Registries, Asian, Neoplasms epidemiology
Abstract: Objectives: To examine cancer incidence among the 3 Asian, non-Hispanic ethnicities with the highest frequency of cases (South Asian, Chinese, and Vietnamese)., Methods: Age-adjusted incidence rates for all invasive cancers were calculated for South Asian (Indian, Pakistani), Chinese, and Vietnamese cancer cases reported to the Massachusetts Cancer Registry (MCR). Additionally, rates were calculated for the most frequent cancers among non-Hispanic Asians (prostate, colorectal, female breast, female thyroid, lung, and male liver). The 95% confidence intervals were calculated to determine statistical significance between the rates., Results: South Asian and Vietnamese females had significantly elevated rates of all invasive cancers compared to Chinese females, while Chinese and South Asian females had a significantly elevated breast cancer rate. Vietnamese males had a significantly elevated rate of all invasive cancers, liver cancer, and lung cancer compared to the other 2 groups. Due to the high rates of lung cancer among Vietnamese males, MCR current/previous smoking data were compared for all cancers. Among Vietnamese, Chinese, and South Asian male cancer cases, current/ previous smoking percentages were 64%, 51%, and 35%, respectively., Conclusions: Our analyses showed a significant difference of rates for several cancers by specific Asian ethnicity within the broader Asian, non-Hispanic race category. Differences in tobacco use, maternal hepatitis B infection, and diet likely contribute to some of the differences. These data can aid in the development of prevention programs, such as smoking cessation and mammography screening that are culturally and linguistically specific within this large and diverse group.

20. Tobacco-Associated Cancer Incidence and Mortality in Massachusetts, 2006-2015.

Author: Knowlton R, Gershman ST, and MacMillan A
Abstract: Objective: To describe the epidemiology of tobacco-associated cancers in Massachusetts from 2006-2015., Methods: Incident cases of tobacco-associated cancers diagnosed from 2006-2015 were provided by the Massachusetts Cancer Registry. Tobacco-associated cancers include lung, oral cavity, esophageal, laryngeal, pancreatic, cervical, liver, bladder, kidney, stomach, colorectal, and acute myeloid leukemia. Cancer deaths due to those cancers were provided by the Massachusetts Registry for Vital Records and Statistics. Joinpoint regression was used to assess trends in the rates and 95% confidence intervals were used to assess significant differences over the time period., Results: From 2006-2015, 42% of all cancer cases and 60% of all cancer deaths were due to a tobacco-associated cancer. Lung and colorectal cancers had the highest incidence (65.8 and 39.8 per 100,000, respectively) and mortality rates (44.6 and 13.6 per 100,000, respectively) of all the tobacco-associated cancers in Massachusetts. The incidence and mortality rates of lung, esophageal, laryngeal, and colorectal cancer decreased with statistical significance from 2006-2015. Non-Hispanic Whites and non-Hispanic Blacks had the highest incidence (203.9 and 189.2/100,000, respectively) and mortality rates (100.7 and 97.4/100,000, respectively) from tobacco-associated cancers, and these rates have decreased with statistical significance from 2006-2015., Conclusion: Tobacco cessation initiatives remain important even as the incidence and mortality rates of some tobacco-associated cancers have decreased in recent years. Understanding the distribution of these cancers by sex and race will provide public health officials with information on populations still affected by these cancers.

Abstract: Importance: Current cancer screening guidelines recommend cessation of cervical cancer screening at the age of 65 years for most women. To examine residual risk among elderly women, we compared cervical cancer incidence rates (IRs) in Massachusetts from 2004 to 2015 among women younger than 65 years versus 65 years and older., Materials and Methods: The Massachusetts Cancer Registry was used to identify all women diagnosed with cervical cancer between January 01, 2004, to December 31, 2015. Cancer incidence was calculated based on age of diagnosis (<65 years vs ≥65 years)., Results: In Massachusetts, 2,418 incident cases of cervical cancer were diagnosed from 2004 to 2014, of which 571 (23.6%) were diagnosed among women 65 years and older. When compared with women diagnosed younger than 65 years, women diagnosed at the age of 65 years and older were more likely to be diagnosed with stage II or higher (71.8% vs 43.8%, p < .001). Cervical cancer IRs decreased annually for women younger than 65 years from 2004 to 2015. Among women 65 years and older, cancer IRs decreased by 3.9% annually from 2004 to 2013 (p = .0009), but 2013 to 2015 showed an increasing trend (annual percent change + 14.1%, p = .12)., Conclusions and Relevance: Women 65 years and older account for one quarter of cervical cancer diagnoses in Massachusetts and present with higher-stage disease than younger women. Upcoming planned revisions in screening and prevention guidelines should address the continued risk of cervical cancer for older women.

Abstract: Purpose: To understand trends in the incidence and mortality of two human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated cancers, cervical and oropharyngeal cancer, in Massachusetts., Methods: From 2004 to 2014, the Massachusetts Cancer Registry recorded 3,996 incident cases of oropharyngeal cancer and 2,193 incident cases of cervical cancer. Mortality data were obtained from the Massachusetts Registry of Vital Records and Statistics from 2008 to 2014. Rates were age-standardized to the 2000 U.S. population and trends were assessed using joinpoint regression., Results: While the incidence rate of cervical cancer (5.46 per 100,000) decreased by 2.41% annually (p = 0.004), the incidence rate of oropharyngeal cancer among males (7.85 per 100,000) increased by 2.82% annually (p = 0.0002). Mortality rates for both cancers decreased from 2008 to 2014 but were not statistically significant (cervical - 3.73% annually, p = 0.29; oropharyngeal - 1.94% annually, p = 0.44)., Conclusion: The rising incidence rate of oropharyngeal cancer in men and the decreasing, but relatively high, incidence rate of cervical cancer in women highlight the need for further screening and prevention by HPV vaccination in Massachusetts.

Abstract: Purpose: The aim was to provide ethnicity-specific incidence trends of cervical and uterine cancers uncorrected and corrected for the prevalence of hysterectomy in Massachusetts., Methods: We used incidence data of invasive cervical (International Classification of Diseases for Oncology, Third Edition: C53) and uterine cancer (International Classification of Diseases for Oncology, Third Edition: C54-C55) diagnosed from 1995 to 2010 from the Massachusetts Cancer Registry. Data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Survey for Massachusetts were used to model the ethnicity-specific prevalence of hysterectomy. We standardized rates by the US 2000 population standard for the periods 1995 to 1998, 1999 to 2002, 2003 to 2006, and 2007 to 2010., Results: Depending on the period, corrected cervical cancer rates increased by 1.2 to 2.8, 5.6 to 8.3, and 3.2 to 8.2 per 100,000 person-years, and uterine cancer rates increased by 14.3 to 16.7, 14.8 to 29.3, and 6.7 to 15.4 per 100,000 person-years among white non-Hispanic women, black non-Hispanic women, and Hispanic women, respectively. Corrected estimated annual percentage changes increased for uterine cancer among black non-Hispanic women aged 60 years and older. Ethnic disparities between white non-Hispanic women and the other groups became smaller for uterine cancer and larger for cervical cancer after correction., Discussion: Corrections of cervical and uterine cancer rates for hysterectomy prevalence are important as ethnic disparities, age patterns and time trends of cervical and uterine cancer incidence rates change., (Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Inc.

Abstract: Background: Colon cancer is one of the most common cancers diagnosed within the United States. Survival with stage III colon cancer has improved with the addition of adjuvant chemotherapy as a component of treatment. Some patients with stage II colon cancer also receive chemotherapy. There has been a dearth of research about the effect of the timing of chemotherapy on survival. Recent studies have shown a possible link between the length of time between surgery and chemotherapy treatment and probability of survival. The present study investigated the association of chemotherapy with survival, and the association of initiating treatment within 45 days vs. more than 45 days after surgery with survival., Methods: We used Kaplan-Meier methods and multivariable Cox proportional hazards models to analyze the association of treatment and its timing with survival among patients who were listed as diagnosed with and having surgery for stage II or III colon cancer from 1997 to 1999 in the Massachusetts Cancer Registry. All tests were two-sided., Results: Of the 3,006 patients who met the eligibility criteria, 61% were still alive on December 31, 2003. Patients who received chemotherapy after surgery were more likely to survive than those who received surgery alone. However, those who received chemotherapy within 45 days did not have better survival than those who began treatment later (hazard ratio 1.16, 95% CI 0.92-1.47). Among stage II colon cancer patients alone, those who received chemotherapy after surgery had significantly lower mortality than those who received surgery alone (hazard ratio 0.75, 95% CI 0.58-0.96)., Conclusions: Adjuvant chemotherapy treatment after surgery for stage II and III colon cancer cases, but not the timing of its initiation, was associated with improved survival. Our study shows a benefit of chemotherapy for patients with stage II disease.

Abstract: Objective: To assess social disparities in breast cancer diagnosis and treatment by comparing the stage at diagnosis and treatment of women diagnosed with breast cancer through a National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP) for low income and uninsured women in Massachusetts, the Women's Health Network (WHN), to other breast cancer patients in the state., Methods: We linked data from the WHN and the Massachusetts Cancer Registry (MCR). We compared 331 WHN women and 13,372 other breast cancer patients in Massachusetts diagnosed from 1995 to 1999. We used logistic regression, controlling for age, race/ethnicity, marital status, region of residence, and stage, where appropriate., Results: Compared to other breast cancer patients reported to the MCR, WHN women were just as likely to be diagnosed at an advanced stage (III or IV), treated with surgery, chemotherapy, and hormone therapy, and treated with complete mastectomy versus partial mastectomy. WHN women were less likely to receive radiation therapy (odds ratio = 0.7; 95% confidence interval = 0.6-0.9), particularly after partial mastectomy, and had a slightly longer time from diagnosis to treatment than other breast cancer patients (p < 0.01)., Conclusions: Women diagnosed with breast cancer through a NBCCEDP in Massachusetts had similar stage and treatment patterns as other breast cancer patients in the state, except for the use of radiation therapy.

Abstract: Identifying and eliminating social disparities in cancer depend upon the availability and ready use of public health surveillance data at the national, state and local levels. As an example of advancing a statewide research agenda in cancer disparities, we present descriptive statistics from major public health surveillance data systems in Massachusetts. Disparities highlighted include higher breast cancer mortality rates among African-American women than women of other racial groups, lower rates of colorectal and cervical cancer screening among Asian-American residents, and striking gradients in cancer risk factor prevalence and screening by income and education. Challenges in utilizing public health surveillance data include lack of information in many domains of social inequity beyond race/ethnicity, uneven quality, and lack of stable, reportable data for smaller populations. Opportunities to maximize the usefulness of cancer registry data include application of geographic information systems and linkage with other data systems tracking information on health services outcomes and clinical trial participation. Analyses of surveillance data can spark advances not only in community-based participatory research but also in programs and policies that may ultimately eliminate disparities along the cancer continuum.

Abstract: This case-control study was designed to determine whether males who were exposed to diethylstilboestrol (DES) in utero are at increased risk of testicular cancer. Questionnaires were completed for 79 residents of Connecticut, who were diagnosed with primary cancer of the testes between 1945 and approximately six months into 1980. An equal number of matched controls drawn from birth certificate records available from the Connecticut State Department of Health Services also submitted questionnaires. Information included data on past medical conditions of subjects and obstetrical history of mothers. The major finding of this study was a statistically significant elevated risk for premature birth for the testicular cancer cases. The study failed to show that DES increased the risk for testicular cancer. However, in view of the findings from previous human and animal studies of such abnormalities as undescended and hypoplastic testes as well as the consideration that only the earliest exposed birth cohort has reached the age of substantial cancer risk, it would seem prudent for any male who has been prenatally exposed to DES to seek medical follow-up.
