Background The administration of endocrine therapy for 5 years substantially reduces recurrence rates during and after treatment in women with early-stage, estrogen-receptor (ER)–positive breast cancer. Extending such therapy beyond 5 years offers further protection but has additional side effects. Obtaining data on the absolute risk of subsequent distant recurrence if therapy stops at 5 years could help determine whether to extend treatment. Methods In this meta-analysis of the results of 88 trials involving 62,923 women with ER-positive breast cancer who were disease-free after 5 years of scheduled endocrine therapy, we used Kaplan–Meier and Cox regression analyses, stratified according to trial and treatment, to assess the associations of tumor diameter and nodal status (TN), tumor grade, and other factors with patients’ outcomes during the period from 5 to 20 years. Results Breast-cancer recurrences occurred at a steady rate throughout the study period from 5 to 20 years. The risk of distant recurrence was strongly correlated with the original TN status. Among the patients with stage T1 disease, the risk of distant recurrence was 13% with no nodal involvement (T1N0), 20% with one to three nodes involved (T1N1–3), and 34% with four to nine nodes involved (T1N4–9); among those with stage T2 disease, the risks were 19% with T2N0, 26% with T2N1–3, and 41% with T2N4–9. The risk of death from breast cancer was similarly dependent on TN status, but the risk of contralateral breast cancer was not. Given the TN status, the factors of tumor grade (available in 43,590 patients) and Ki-67 status (available in 7692 patients), which are strongly correlated with each other, were of only moderate independent predictive value for distant recurrence, but the status regarding the progesterone receptor (in 54,115 patients) and human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2) (in 15,418 patients in trials with no use of trastuzumab) was not predictive. During the study period from 5 to 20 years, the absolute risk of distant recurrence among patients with T1N0 breast cancer was 10% for low-grade disease, 13% for moderate-grade disease, and 17% for high-grade disease; the corresponding risks of any recurrence or a contralateral breast cancer were 17%, 22%, and 26%, respectively. Conclusions After 5 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy, breast-cancer recurrences continued to occur steadily throughout the study period from 5 to 20 years. The risk of distant recurrence was strongly correlated with the original TN status, with risks ranging from 10 to 41%, depending on TN status and tumor grade.

BACKGROUND: Postmastectomy radiotherapy was shown in previous meta-analyses to reduce the risks of both recurrence and breast cancer mortality in all women with node-positive disease considered together. However, the benefit in women with only one to three positive lymph nodes is uncertain. We aimed to assess the effect of radiotherapy in these women after mastectomy and axillary dissection.METHODS: We did a meta-analysis of individual data for 8135 women randomly assigned to treatment groups during 1964-86 in 22 trials of radiotherapy to the chest wall and regional lymph nodes after mastectomy and axillary surgery versus the same surgery but no radiotherapy. Follow-up lasted 10 years for recurrence and to Jan 1, 2009, for mortality. Analyses were stratified by trial, individual follow-up year, age at entry, and pathological nodal status.FINDINGS: 3786 women had axillary dissection to at least level II and had zero, one to three, or four or more positive nodes. All were in trials in which radiotherapy included the chest wall, supraclavicular or axillary fossa (or both), and internal mammary chain. For 700 women with axillary dissection and no positive nodes, radiotherapy had no significant effect on locoregional recurrence (two-sided significance level [2p]>0·1), overall recurrence (rate ratio [RR], irradiated vs not, 1·06, 95% CI 0·76-1·48, 2p>0·1), or breast cancer mortality (RR 1·18, 95% CI 0·89-1·55, 2p>0·1). For 1314 women with axillary dissection and one to three positive nodes, radiotherapy reduced locoregional recurrence (2pINTERPRETATION: After mastectomy and axillary dissection, radiotherapy reduced both recurrence and breast cancer mortality in the women with one to three positive lymph nodes in these trials even when systemic therapy was given. For today's women, who in many countries are at lower risk of recurrence, absolute gains might be smaller but proportional gains might be larger because of more effective radiotherapy.FUNDING: Cancer Research UK, British Heart Foundation, UK Medical Research Council.

BACKGROUND: After breast-conserving surgery, radiotherapy reduces recurrence and breast cancer death, but it may do so more for some groups of women than for others. We describe the absolute magnitude of these reductions according to various prognostic and other patient characteristics, and relate the absolute reduction in 15-year risk of breast cancer death to the absolute reduction in 10-year recurrence risk. METHODS: We undertook a meta-analysis of individual patient data for 10,801 women in 17 randomised trials of radiotherapy versus no radiotherapy after breast-conserving surgery, 8337 of whom had pathologically confirmed node-negative (pN0) or node-positive (pN+) disease. FINDINGS: Overall, radiotherapy reduced the 10-year risk of any (ie, locoregional or distant) first recurrence from 35.0% to 19.3% (absolute reduction 15.7%, 95% CI 13.7-17.7, 2p/=20%), intermediate (10-19%), or lower (, link_to_OA_fulltext

Background In early breast cancer, variations in local treatment that substantially affect the risk of locoregional recurrence could also affect long-term breast cancer mortality. To examine this relationship, collaborative meta-analyses were undertaken, based on individual patient data, of the relevant randomised trials that began by 1995. Methods Information was available on 42 000 women in 78 randomised treatment comparisons (radiotherapy vs no radiotherapy, 23 500; more vs less surgery, 9300; more surgery vs radiotherapy, 9300). 24 types of local treatment comparison were identified. To help relate the effect on local (ie, locoregional) recurrence to that on breast cancer mortality, these were grouped according to whether or not the 5-year local recurrence risk exceeded 10% (10%, 25 000 women). Findings About three-quarters of the eventual local recurrence risk occurred during the first 5 years. In the comparisons that involved little (10%) differences, however, 5-year local recurrence risks were 7% active versus 26% control (absolute reduction 19%), and 15-year breast cancer mortality risks were 44·6% versus 49·5% (absolute reduction 5·0%, SE 0·8, 2p These 25 000 women included 7300 with breast-conserving surgery (BCS) in trials of radiotherapy (generally just to the conserved breast), with 5-year local recurrence risks (mainly in the conserved breast, as most had axillary clearance and node-negative disease) 7% versus 26% (reduction 19%), and 15-year breast cancer mortality risks 30·5% versus 35·9% (reduction 5·4%, SE 1·7, 2p=0·0002; overall mortality reduction 5·3%, SE 1·8, 2p=0·005). They also included 8500 with mastectomy, axillary clearance, and node-positive disease in trials of radiotherapy (generally to the chest wall and regional lymph nodes), with similar absolute gains from radiotherapy; 5-year local recurrence risks (mainly at these sites) 6% versus 23% (reduction 17%), and 15-year breast cancer mortality risks 54·7% versus 60·1% (reduction 5·4%, SE 1·3, 2p=0·0002; overall mortality reduction 4·4%, SE 1·2, 2p=0·0009). Radiotherapy produced similar proportional reductions in local recurrence in all women (irrespective of age or tumour characteristics) and in all major trials of radiotherapy versus not (recent or older; with or without systemic therapy), so large absolute reductions in local recurrence were seen only if the control risk was large. To help assess the life-threatening side-effects of radiotherapy, the trials of radiotherapy versus not were combined with those of radiotherapy versus more surgery. There was, at least with some of the older radiotherapy regimens, a significant excess incidence of contralateral breast cancer (rate ratio 1·18, SE 0·06, 2p=0·002) and a significant excess of non-breast-cancer mortality in irradiated women (rate ratio 1·12, SE 0·04, 2p=0·001). Both were slight during the first 5 years, but continued after year 15. The excess mortality was mainly from heart disease (rate ratio 1·27, SE 0·07, 2p=0·0001) and lung cancer (rate ratio 1·78, SE 0·22, 2p=0·0004). Interpretation In these trials, avoidance of a local recurrence in the conserved breast after BCS and avoidance of a local recurrence elsewhere (eg, the chest wall or regional nodes) after mastectomy were of comparable relevance to 15-year breast cancer mortality. Differences in local treatment that substantially affect local recurrence rates would, in the hypothetical absence of any other causes of death, avoid about one breast cancer death over the next 15 years for every four local recurrences avoided, and should reduce 15-year overall mortality.

- Abstract
We surveyed, during 1994, all 325 patients who underwent staging laparotomy with splenectomy for Hodgkin's disease in Norway 1969-80, before pneumococcal vaccine was available in this country. The patients were thus not immunized preoperatively. Of 162 patients (49.8%) who died before 1994, 8 (2.4% of the total study) died from pneumococcal septicaemia and 16 (6.2%) from infections totally. Of 163 patients (50.2%) who were alive in 1994, 158 cooperated and filled in a questionnaire: 22 had been hospitalized for serious infections; 2 with pneumococcal septicaemia, and 6 with pneumonia, although lacking a specified microbiological diagnosis. We observed 325 patients representing 4420 patient-years, 3066 patient-years among survivors and 1354 patient-years among the dead. This resulted in an incidence rate of systemic pneumococcal disease of 226 per 100,000 patient-years, which is a relative risk of 20.5 compared to the general Norwegian population during 1994. Septicaemia for these patients most often had an abrupt clinical start even for relapse-free individuals and occurred from 2 to 17 yr after splenectomy (mean 10 yr). The risk of developing an overwhelming pneumococcal septicaemia with high case-fatality in asplenic patients seems to persist for these patients at about the same level even 15-20 yr after splenectomy. Only 12.7% of the survivors had been given pneumococcal vaccine in the autumn of 1993. Despite the fact that medical journals and media in Norway focused upon the problem of pneumococcal disease in asplenic individuals in the autumn of 1993 and spring of 1994, a substantial proportion of these patients (55.3%) still remained unimmunized when interviewed in the autumn of 1994. None of our systemic pneumococcal disease patients was vaccinated. Our data underline the need for prophylactic immunization with effective vaccines against pneumococcal infection in splenectomized Hodgkin's disease patients.

- Abstract
Systemic adjuvant therapy can improve the prognosis for breast cancer patients. In node negative disease most patients have a good prognosis with local therapy only. Therefore, identification of subgroups with higher risk of relapse is warranted in order to avoid overtreatment of a large number of patients. A total of 399 tumours from patients without axillary metastases, operated on in the years 1964-72, were measured preoperatively and graded according to a modified Scharff-Bloom-Richardson scheme. Patients with T2 (UICC) tumours and histologic grade 2 and 3, had a 3.3-fold relative risk of mortality from breast cancer compared with the rest of the patients. These patients should receive adjuvant systemic therapy.

- Abstract
Clinical research in hospitals involves many partners. In Norway, the doctors are allocated little time for clinical research. Furthermore, complicated laws and directives have to be followed. The authors describe the organisation of clinical research and a software collection, including CD-ROM. We conclude that clinical research in large hospitals demands both a strong organisation and extensive use of modern information technology. The problems can be solved at acceptable cost.

- Abstract
The value of blood tests as prognostic factors in patients with recurrent rectal carcinomas treated with radiotherapy was studied in one retrospective (n = 114, 1976-1984) and one prospective (n = 100, 1985-1989) group of patients. The retrospective group was used for validation of the results from the prospective group. In univariate survival analyses, 19 of totally 38 variables significantly correlated to the survival. Of 13 significant blood parameters, lactate dehydrogenase (LD), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), alpha 1-, alpha 2-globulin, fibrinogen, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), C-reactive protein (CRP), haptoglobin, granulocytosis and thrombocytosis were the most important ones (p < or = 0.01). In the multivariate analyses (Cox regression) of the prospective group, LD, alpha 1-globulin, diagnosed liver metastases and CEA were found to be significant predictors of survival. A prognostic index was derived from the prospective group including ESR, LD and relapse-free interval. This clearly separated the patients in the retrospective group into one low- and one high-risk group.

- Abstract
The risk of a second cancer was assessed in 1,152 patients with Hodgkins disease who were treated at the Norwegian Radium Hospital from 1968-85. 68 patients developed a second cancer more than one year after the diagnosis of Hodgkins disease. These included nine acute non-lymphocytic leukemias, eight non-Hodgkins lymphomas and 51 solid tumours, including 11 lung cancers. The overall relative risk (observed/expected ratios) of developing a second cancer was 1.86. After 18 years the cumulative risk of developing a second cancer was 14.4% +/- 2.9%, of which 11.2% +/- 2.6% referred to solid tumours. The cumulative risk of leukemia appeared to reach a plateau level of 1.5% after 12 years while the risk of non-Hodgkins lymphomas and lung cancer continued to rise with time to 2.1% and 3.3% respectively after 18 years. The risk of developing leukemia increased after treatment with alkylating agents and Procarbazine. The risk of non-Hodgkins lymphoma was not related to any specific type of therapy. Excess lung cancer risk was noted in patients treated with radiotherapy, and the cancers appeared within the treated areas.

- Abstract
Between the years 1968-85, 1,177 patients started treatment for Hodgkins disease at the Norwegian Radium Hospital. In this unselected material from Norway the age distribution was bimodal with the highest incidence between 20-40 years of age. Survival is dependent on age, stage and histology, and was better between the years 1980-85 as compared with the period 1974-79. During the last ten years, treatment has been decentralized in Norway, and all centres cooperate by using the same protocol for staging and treatment. The article summarizes the results of the treatment, and related complications.

- Abstract
Acute/subacute side effects were evaluated in 39 testicular cancer patients before infra-diaphragmatic radiotherapy, twice during therapy and 3, 6, and 12 months after treatment discontinuation. The evaluation was primarily based on questionnaires filled in by the patients. At the end of radiotherapy nausea was reported by all responding patients, and 29 patients complained of diarrhea. Two-thirds of the patients reported abdominal pain and/or meteorism, and one-half complained of retching and/or vomiting. During therapy the median weight was significantly reduced by three kilos and the median value of the performance status decreased by 20%. The hematological and biochemical toxicity was low. At the 3-month evaluation more patients complained of nausea, abdominal pain, and meteorism than before irradiation. Compared to the pretreatment situation the patients evaluated their physical condition to be reduced during treatment and at the first follow-up visit. One year posttreatment the patients had regained their physical fitness. All patients in income-producing activity were on sick leave during the period of radiotherapy and for 5 weeks (median) thereafter. In conclusion, infra-diaphragmatic radiotherapy leads to significant but reversible acute/subacute side effects lasting for a median of 9 weeks. It is hoped that better symptomatic therapy and modifications of the radiotherapy technique will reduce the side effects.

- Abstract
59 patients with histological verified squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, 39 with primary disease and 20 with relapse were given carboplatin and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in escalated carboplatin doses. The starting dose with carboplatin was 200 mg/m2 and the dose was escalated to 300 mg/m2, 350 mg/m2, 400 mg/m2 and thereafter by 20 mg/m2 per step. All patients received a dose of 1000 mg/m2 5-FU as a continuous infusion for 5 days. The myelotoxicity was moderate. No patients had grade 4 haemoglobin toxicity, while 7 patients had grade 3 toxicity. 2 patients had grade 4 leucocyte toxicity and 1 patient had grade 3. 4 patients were observed with a grade 4 platelet toxicity. 2 early deaths occurred at a dose level of 420 mg/m2. 18 out of 39 patients in primary treatment responded while 2 out of 20 patients treated for relapse responded. On the basis of the present study the maximum tolerable dose for carboplatin in combination with 5-FU 1000 mg/m2 is between 350 and 400 mg/m2.
