Bengtsen MB, Farkas DK, Sørensen HT, Nørgaard M. Renal cell carcinoma and risk of second primary cancer: A Danish nationwide cohort study. Cancer Med 2024; 13:e7237. [PMID: 38872360 PMCID: PMC11176587 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.7237] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 04/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024] Open
Abstract
AIM To examine the risk of second primary cancer in patients with incident renal cell carcinoma (RCC). METHODS We identified all patients diagnosed with incident RCC during 1995-2019, using population-based Danish medical registries. Patients were followed from the date of RCC diagnosis until any second primary cancer diagnosis, death, emigration, or December 31, 2019, whichever came first. We computed the absolute risk, standardized incidence ratio (SIR), and excess absolute risk of second primary cancer, with 95% confidence intervals (CIs), among patients with RCC compared to the general population. RESULTS The absolute 1- and 20-year risks of any second primary cancer were 2.8% and 17.8%, respectively. Within 1 year after RCC diagnosis, we detected 20 excess cancer cases per 1000 person-years (PY) (SIR, 2.3; 95% CI: 2.1-2.6). Moreover, we detected an additional four excess cancer cases per 1000 PY during 1 to <5 years of follow-up (SIR, 1.3; 95% CI: 1.2-1.4), and 6 per 1000 PY beyond 5 years of follow-up (SIR, 1.4; 95% CI: 1.3-1.5). The sustained elevated cancer risk beyond 1 year of follow-up was mainly attributed to excess risk of lung and bladder cancer. The risk of second primary cancer was higher in 2006-2019 than in 1995-2005, but only during the first year of follow-up. CONCLUSION Patients with incident RCC have a sustained 40% elevated long-term risk of second primary cancer, compared with the general population. This increased risk is mainly attributed to lung and bladder cancer.

Risk of secondary primary malignancies in survivors of upper tract urothelial carcinoma: A nationwide population-based analysis. Cancer Epidemiol 2024; 89:102536. [PMID: 38281454 DOI: 10.1016/j.canep.2024.102536] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 01/30/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the cancer types and risk factors of secondary primary malignancy (SPM) in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) in Taiwan. METHODS Using National Health Insurance Research Dataset and catastrophic illness registry, we enrolled newly diagnosed UTUC patients from 2000 to 2013. Those without catastrophic illness registration were excluded from the study. The cancer types and hazard ratios (HRs) of subsequent SPMs were calculated according to the antecedent malignancy. We analyzed the risk factors for developing SPMs using multivariate Cox proportional hazard models. RESULTS A total of 9050 UTUC patients were registered and 2187 (24.2%) patients developed SPMs during the study period. As compared with primary UTUC, the relative risk ratios of SPM was 2.5 folds and 18% higher in those with antecedent non-UC malignancy and with bladder cancer history, respectively. Totally, 387 (37.8%) of 1022 UTUC patients with antecedent non-UC malignancy developed subsequent SPM after UTUC diagnosis. The antecedent and subsequent cancer types are similar and kidney cancer is most common, followed by hepatoma. Multivariate analysis showed that a history of antecedent non-UC malignancy is the most unfavorable factor for SPM development (HR, 2.50; 95% CI, 2.23-2.81), followed by liver disease, male gender, antecedent bladder cancer history, age ≥ 75 years, and chronic kidney disease. CONCLUSIONS Our study, conducted in Taiwan and involving 9050 UTUC patients, meticulously examined the types of SPM and the associated risk factors. Our research unearthed several pivotal discoveries: a preceding history of non-UC malignancies emerged as the single most influential factor contributing to the occurrence of subsequent cancers, followed by liver disease, male gender, antecedent bladder cancer history, age ≥75 years, and chronic kidney disease. Futhermore, kidney cancer emerged as the predominant subsequent malignancy, closely trailed by hepatoma..

[PMID: 33033503 PMCID: PMC7532509 DOI: 10.7150/jca.44726] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2020] [Accepted: 06/14/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective: The survival of prostate cancer (PC) patients after radiotherapy (RT) has improved over time, but it raises the debate of increased risk of secondary colorectal cancer (SCRC). This study aimed to assess whether RT for PC treatment increases the risk of SCRC in comparison with radical prostatectomy (RP). Methods: A population-based cohort of PC patients treated only with RT or only with RP between January 2007 and December 2015 was identified from the Taiwan Cancer Registry. The incidence rate of SCRC development was estimated using Cox regression model. Results: In this study, total 8,797 PC patients treated with either RT (n = 3,219) or RP (n =5,578). Patients subjected to RT were elder (higher percentage of 70≧years, p < 0.0001) and more advanced clinically (stage III: 22.90% vs. 11.87%; stage IV: 22.15% vs. 13.80%, p < 0.0001), compared to those subjected to RP. More patients subjected to RT had a much higher percentage of autoimmune disease (22.34% vs. 18.75%, p < 0.0001) and osteoarthritis and allied disorders (16.31% vs. 12.98%, p < 0.0001). Besides, RT patients had a higher percentage of underlying Crohn's disease (0.25% vs. 0.05%, p = 0.0230). Although almost all selected factors were not statistically significant, they presented the positive risk of SCRC for those under RP compared with those among RT. Besides, for PC patients in clinical stage I and II, patients with RP may have borderline significantly protective effects of SCRC compared with those under RT (stage I, HR: 0.14; 95% C.I.:0.01-1.39; p = 0.0929; stage II, HR: 1.92; 95% C.I.:0.93-3.95; p = 0.0775). Kaplan-Meier curves for a 3-year-period, which demonstrated no statistical difference in the risk of SCRC free between PC patients undergoing RT and RP (p = 0.9766). Conclusion: Whether or not pelvic RT for PC is associated with an increased risk for SCRC on a population-based level remains a matter of considerable debate. From a clinical perspective, these PC survivors should be counseled accordingly and received continued cancer surveillance with regular colonoscopy follow-up.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Urogenital cancers are not an uncommon occurrence in daily practice. Prostate cancer is the second most frequent cancer in men, kidney cancer accounts for 2.4% of all cancers and bladder cancers represent 3.1% of cancers in both men and women [1]. However, the cases of a simultaneous development of all three cancers, including one with a neuroendocrine component, are very few and far between. PRESENTATION OF CASE Our case report involves a case of a patient with prostate adenocarcinoma, clear-cell renal carcinoma, papillary renal carcinoma and small-cell bladder cancer. The patient was treated as if he had separate pathologies by a multidisciplinary team: surgical and oncological, performing radical cystoprostatectomy with left perifascial nephroureterectomy, right ureterostomy and adjuvant chemotherapy, with excellent outcome even four years after the initial diagnosis. DISCUSSION The distinct features of this case are the occurence of four different malignancies of the urogenital system, the family history of colon cancer, the development of small-cell carcinoma of the bladder, which is extremely rare and the good outcome, despite the quadruple malignancies and the aggresivity of the small-cell carcinoma. CONCLUSION Mutiple primary malignancies are a relatively rare pathology, but should be considered as a possibility in patients who already had a second malignancy. Cases of patients with MPMs should be supervised by a multidisciplinary team and should be followed closely.

Abstract
Purpose The rising incidence and life expectancy associated with prostate cancer (PCa) has led to increasing interest in predicting the risk of second primary malignancies (SPMs) among PCa survivors, although data regarding SPMs after PCa are controversial. Methods We identified 30,964 patients from the National Health Insurance Research Database in Taiwan who had newly diagnosed PCa between 2000 and 2010. Each patient was randomly frequency-matched with an individual without PCa, based on age, comorbidity, and index year. Competing-risks regression models were used to estimate subhazard ratios (SHRs) of SPMs development associated with PCa. The Bonferroni adjustment was used in multiple comparisons. Results Men with PCa had a trend of lower risk of developing overall SPMs compared to those without PCa (adjusted SHR = 0.94, 99.72% confidence interval [CI] = 0.89–1.00, p = 0.06). The risks of lung and liver cancer were significantly lower. In contrast, these patients had a significantly higher risk of thyroid cancer. There is a trend for a higher risk of developing SPMs in the urinary bladder and rectum/anus. Further analyses indicated that PCa patients who received radiation therapy (RT) had an increased risk of overall SPMs, hematologic malignancies, esophageal cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer, and urinary bladder cancer compared with those who did not receive RT. Conclusion Men with PCa tended to have a lower risk of SPMs, but a significantly higher risk of subsequent thyroid cancer. Continued cancer surveillance is required among PCa survivors, especially in specific sites and in individuals who received RT.

Abstract
Cancer survival rates are increasing, and as a result, more cancer survivors are exposed to the risk of developing a second primary cancer (SPC). It has been hypothesized that one of the underlying mechanisms for this risk could be mediated by variations in insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). This review summarizes the current epidemiological evidence to identify whether IGF-1 plays a role in the development of SPCs. IGF-1 is known to promote cancer development by inhibiting apoptosis and stimulating cell proliferation. Epidemiological studies have reported a positive association between circulating IGF-1 levels and various primary cancers, such as breast, colorectal, and prostate cancer. The role of IGF-1 in increasing SPC risk has been explored less. Nonetheless, several experimental studies have observed a deregulation of the IGF-1 pathway, which may explain the association between IGF-1 and SPCs. Thus, measuring serum IGF-1 may serve as a useful marker in assessing the risk of SPCs, and therefore, more translational experimental and epidemiological studies are needed to further disentangle the role of IGF-1 in the development of specific SPCs.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the incidence of secondary primary malignancies in patients with renal cortical neoplasms. METHODS Between January 1989 and July 2010, 3647 patients underwent surgery at our institution for a renal cortical neoplasm and were followed through 2012. Occurrence of other malignancies was classified as antecedent, synchronous, or subsequent. All patients with antecedent malignancies (n = 498) and a randomly selected half of those with synchronous malignancies (n = 83) were excluded. The expected number of second primaries was calculated by multiplying Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program incidence rates of renal cortical neoplasms by person-years at risk within categories of age, sex, and year of diagnosis. The standardized incidence ratio (SIR) was calculated as observed cancers divided by expected incidence of the cancer, with approximation to the exact Poisson test used to obtain confidence intervals (CI) and p values. RESULTS Of 3066 patients with renal cortical neoplasms, 267 had a second primary cancer; the five most common in men were prostate, colorectal, bladder, lung, and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma; the five most common in women were breast, colorectal, lung, endometrium, and thyroid. Men demonstrated higher than expected thyroid cancer rate (SIR 5.0; 95 % CI 1.83-10.88, p = 0.002), and women had higher than expected rates of stomach cancer (SIR 5.0; 95 % CI 1.61-11.67, p = 0.004) and thyroid cancer (SIR 4.62; 95 % CI 1.69-10.05, p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of certain types of second malignancies may be higher in patients after diagnosis of renal cortical neoplasms compared to the general population. These observations can inform clinical follow-up in kidney cancer survivorship and future research studies.

Abstract
As patients with prostate cancer have a long life expectancy, there is increasing interest in predicting the risk of development of a second primary cancer (SPC), and we therefore designed this study to estimate the overall risk of developing SPCs among Korean prostate cancer patients. We used a population-based cohort from the Korean Central Cancer Registry composed of 55,378 men diagnosed with a first primary prostate cancer between 1993 and 2011. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) of SPCs were analyzed by age at diagnosis, latency period, period of diagnosis, and type of initial treatment. Survival analysis was stratified by development of SPC. Men with primary prostate cancer had an overall lower risk of developing an SPC [SIR = 0.75; 95% CI, 0.72-0.78], which was significant for SPCs of the esophagus, stomach, rectum, liver, gallbladder, bile duct, pancreas, larynx, lung, and bronchus. In contrast, there were significant increases in the risk of bladder and thyroid cancers, which tended to decrease after longer follow-up. Patients who received initial radiation therapy had an increased risk of subsequent rectal cancer, although this was still lower than that of the general male population. Other urinary tract cancers including those of the kidney, renal pelvis, and ureter tended to be associated with a higher risk of developing an SPC, but this difference did not reach statistical significance. The patients with prostate cancer and SPC had lower overall survival rates than those with one primary prostate cancer. Our findings suggest that men with prostate cancer have a 25% lower risk of developing an SPC in Korea, but a higher risk of developing subsequent bladder and thyroid cancers, which suggests the need for continued cancer surveillance among prostate cancer survivors.

Abstract
As patients with prostate cancer have a long life expectancy, there is increasing interest in predicting the risk of development of a second primary cancer (SPC), and we therefore designed this study to estimate the overall risk of developing SPCs among Korean prostate cancer patients. We used a population-based cohort from the Korean Central Cancer Registry composed of 55,378 men diagnosed with a first primary prostate cancer between 1993 and 2011. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) of SPCs were analyzed by age at diagnosis, latency period, period of diagnosis, and type of initial treatment. Survival analysis was stratified by development of SPC. Men with primary prostate cancer had an overall lower risk of developing an SPC [SIR = 0.75; 95% CI, 0.72-0.78], which was significant for SPCs of the esophagus, stomach, rectum, liver, gallbladder, bile duct, pancreas, larynx, lung, and bronchus. In contrast, there were significant increases in the risk of bladder and thyroid cancers, which tended to decrease after longer follow-up. Patients who received initial radiation therapy had an increased risk of subsequent rectal cancer, although this was still lower than that of the general male population. Other urinary tract cancers including those of the kidney, renal pelvis, and ureter tended to be associated with a higher risk of developing an SPC, but this difference did not reach statistical significance. The patients with prostate cancer and SPC had lower overall survival rates than those with one primary prostate cancer. Our findings suggest that men with prostate cancer have a 25% lower risk of developing an SPC in Korea, but a higher risk of developing subsequent bladder and thyroid cancers, which suggests the need for continued cancer surveillance among prostate cancer survivors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The survival of men diagnosed with prostate cancer has improved over time, and the current 10-year relative survival rate is 99.7%. The long survival of patients with this common cancer raises questions about the risk of a second primary cancer and the need for continued surveillance. METHODS A population-based cohort of 441,504 men who were diagnosed with prostate cancer between 1992 and 2010 was identified from Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results Program (SEER) data (SEER13). The standardized incidence ratio (SIR) was calculated as an estimate of the risk of a second primary malignancy based on the incidence in the general population. RESULTS Prostate cancer survivors had a lower risk of being diagnosed with another cancer overall compared with the US population (SIR = 0.60; 95% confidence interval, 0.60-0.61). The risks of leukemia and cancers of the oral cavity and pharynx, esophagus, stomach, colon and rectum, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, lung and bronchus, and larynx were significantly lower. Conversely, these patients had a greater risk of bladder, kidney, and endocrine and soft tissue cancers. Men who received treatment with radiation therapy (external-beam radiation therapy) had long-term increases in their risk of bladder cancer (SIR = 1.42) and rectal cancer (SIR = 1.70) risk compared with who did not receive radiation (SIRbladder = 0.76; SIRrectal = 0.74). There were significant racial differences in the risk of being diagnosed with a second primary cancer, and the magnitude and direction of these risks depended on tumor type. CONCLUSIONS Prostate cancer survivors remain at risk of subsequent malignancies, and race and treatment choice important determinants of long-term risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exposure to ionizing radiation has been linked to myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS); it is not clear whether therapeutic radiation doses used for prostate cancer pose an increased MDS risk. METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study of prostate cancer patients diagnosed between 1986 and 2011 at Cleveland Clinic, comparing those who underwent definitive treatment with radical prostatectomy (RP) to radiotherapy either external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) or prostate interstitial brachytherapy (PI) and to population-based registries. Competing risk regression analyses were used to determine the cumulative risk of developing MDS. All statistical tests were two-sided. RESULTS Of 10924 patients, 5119 (47%) received radiation (n = 2183 [43%] in EBRT group and n = 2936 [57%] in PI group) and 5805 (53%) were treated with RP. Overall, 31 cases of MDS were observed, with age-adjusted incidence rates no higher than in population-based registries. In univariate analyses, advancing age (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.14; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.09 to 1.20; P < .001) and radiotherapy exposure (HR = 3.44; 95% CI = 1.41 to 8.37; P = .007) were statistically significantly associated with development of MDS. In multivariable analyses, although advanced age (HR = 1.13; 95% CI = 1.06 to 1.19; P < .001) remained statistically associated with MDS, radiation did not, although a small non-statistically significant trend existed for PI-treated patients. MDS rates were no higher than in population-based registries. CONCLUSIONS With relatively short follow-up, prostate cancer patients definitively treated with radiation did not appear to have a statistically increased risk of subsequent MDS.

Abstract
CONTEXT Bladder carcinoma (BC), due its high morbidity and relapsing course, generates significant economic and health care costs. Accordingly, review the environmental nonoccupational risk factors (RF), more or less evidence-based, in the etiology and pathogenesis of BC, because the involvement of urologists is essential for prevention. ACQUISITION OF EVIDENCE Review of the peer-reviewed literature (1987-2012) on nonoccupational environmental RF associated with BC retrieved from Medline, Embase and Science Citation Index. The search profiles have been "Risk factors/Epidemiology/Tobacco-smoking/Diet-nutrition-water-liquids/Radiation/Infectious/Farmacological drugs" and "Bladder cancer". SYNTHESIS OF EVIDENCE Smoking was associated with 50% of BC in both sexes. Smokers have a 2-5 times higher risk than nonsmokers, directly proportional to the amount and duration of addiction. Drinking water contaminated with arsenic and chromium chlorination byproducts increases the risk of BC. High consumption of red meat and saturated fat may increase the risk, while high intake of fruits and vegetables decreases it. Patients treated with cyclophosphamide, ifosfamide and ionizing radiation have an increased risk of BC. Frequent and prolonged use of hair dyes and Schistosoma haematobium infestation increases the risk of BC. CONCLUSIONS The reduction or the cessation of smoking decrease BC. The contaminant-free water consumption with the increase of vegetal foods favour BC prevention. Cancer survivors treated with cyclophosphamide, ifosfamide and radiation therapy should be monitored for early diagnosis of BC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The survival of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has improved in recent years. However, data on the risk of developing a second cancer after a diagnosis of RCC is limited. We used the data available in the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database to estimate the risk of second metachronous primary cancers in patients diagnosed with RCC between 1973 and 2006. Furthermore, we also investigated the effect of the second primary cancers (SPCs) on the survival of RCC patients. RESULTS A total of 3795 cases of SPCs were registered in the SEER between 1973 and 2006. The ratio of observed/expected number of SPCs in RCC was 1.18, which was significantly greater than expected. Solid tumors comprised 90% of all second malignancies in RCC patients, with the most second cancers reported in the prostate gland and the digestive and respiratory systems. The overall risk of second primaries was highest in patients aged over 30 years at the time of diagnosis. The site-specific risk of second cancers varied with the age at diagnosis, sex, race of the patient, size of the primary renal tumor, and history of radiation therapy. Patients with second primaries had a significantly longer overall survival than those without second malignancies. An interval of <1 year between the diagnosis of RCC and the second primary was the strongest predictor of poor overall survival in RCC patients with a second malignancy. CONCLUSIONS Patients with RCC are at a significantly higher risk of developing a second malignancy, suggesting the need for careful surveillance for their early detection and management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES As the number of prostate cancer survivors is increasing, the long-term health of prostate cancer patients has become a significant health issue. Radiation is known to induce malignant transformation, and prostate cancer radiotherapy is suggested to induce secondary malignancies. This report reviews the available data regarding the risk of secondary cancer after radiation for prostate cancer. METHODS Epidemiological studies of the secondary cancer risk in patients with a history of prostate cancer radiation and the literature regarding radiation-induced carcinogenesis were reviewed. RESULTS Prostate cancer is not associated with an increased number of additional malignancies. The data suggests a modest increase in secondary cancers associated with radiation for prostate cancer, as approximately one in 70 patients undergoing radiation and surviving more than 10 yr will develop secondary cancer. The most common sites for secondary cancers are bladder and rectum. In addition to the cancers adjacent to the radiation field, there is also an increase of cancers in distant sites, such as lung. The increased risk for secondary cancers is reported after external radiation, not after brachytherapy. The available data originated from studies of patients undergoing conventional radiotherapy. New treatment methods, such as intensity-modulated radiotherapy, may be associated with a higher risk of secondary cancers. CONCLUSION Although the incidence of secondary cancers after prostate cancer radiotherapy is not dramatically different from the overall population, patients should be informed about this risk. Other treatment modalities should be considered for patients with long life expectancy and for patients with additional risk factors.

Abstract
The clinical features and outcomes of rectosigmoid cancers (RSCs) occurring after radiotherapy (RT) for prostate cancer were reviewed to determine whether they are significantly different to RSC occurring without those precedents, whether the subsequent RSC could be either predicted or detected early, and whether they can be effectively treated. Eight patients who had been treated by RT for prostate cancer subsequently developed lower gastrointestinal tract symptoms consistent with proctopathy, however, investigation by endoscopy indicated RSC. These cases were reviewed in detail. The most common presenting symptom was mild bleeding. All eight RSCs were detected before the development of metastatic disease and successfully treated. Only one required an anteroposterior resection. Otherwise, there were no unusual features about any of the cases that would have predicted the occurrence of RSC or enabled earlier detection. No complications occurred that could be attributed to prior RT. Six recommendations for clinicians are offered on the basis of these cases and the relevant published work. In particular, when symptoms of proctopathy occur after RT for prostate cancer the conclusion that radiation proctopathy is the cause should not be drawn until confirmed by endoscopy. Prior RT did not increase the risks involved in colorectal surgery in this setting.

Abstract
PURPOSE While the mitochondrion is known to be a key mediator of apoptosis, there has been little inquiry into the inheritance pattern of mitochondria in patients with cancer. We compared the mtDNA haplotype in patients with prostate and renal cancer to that in controls to determine if there is an association between mitochondrial genotype and cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Haplotyping was performed using polymerase chain reaction/digest identification of key polymorphic sites in the mitochondrial genome. A total of 121 and 221 white men with renal and prostate cancer, respectively, were identified following pathological confirmation of cancer, while 246 white controls were selected randomly from a bank of cadaveric organ donor DNA. Statistical analysis was performed and ORs were calculated. RESULTS Mitochondrial haplogroup U was a highly significant risk factor for prostate and renal cancer vs controls (16.74% and 20.66% vs 9.35%, Fisher's exact test p = 0.019 and 0.005, respectively). The association remained statistically significant in renal cancer even after Bonferroni adjustment for multiple comparisons. Haplogroup U carried an OR of 1.95 for prostate cancer and an OR of 2.52 for renal cancer. CONCLUSIONS The inheritance of mitochondrial haplogroup U is associated with an approximately 2-fold increased risk of prostate cancer and 2.5-fold increased risk of renal cancer in white North American individuals. Therefore, individuals with this mitochondrial haplotype are in a high risk group. Because mitochondrial haplogroup U is found in 9.35% of the white United States population, there are more than 20 million individuals in this high risk group.

Abstract
A number of studies report a high frequency of double primary cancers of the bladder and prostate. The coincidence was as high as 70% for prostate cancers in patients with bladder cancer, and 3.4% for bladder cancers in patients with prostate cancer. Two studies reviewing medical records reported a significant risk of bladder cancer after prostate cancer and of prostate cancer after bladder cancer. Only 1 of 3 cancer registry studies reported a significantly increased risk of prostate cancer after bladder cancer, and 3 of 11 studies reported a significantly increased risk in bladder cancer after prostate cancer. There was an association between DNA repair and N-acetyltransferase polymorphisms and risk of prostate and bladder cancer. These data suggest that these cancers may share a common carcinogenic process or that these patients are particularly susceptible to both cancers. Because of the association between these cancers, patients who are diagnosed with prostate or bladder cancer should be followed closely for the detection of the second urologic malignancy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Evaluation of second primary cancers provides valuable insight about etiology and shared risk factors. Studies of second primary cancers following prostate cancer conclude that overall risk of second primary cancers decreases. However, risk of bladder cancer and kidney cancer increases. We examine the risk of common and rare second primary cancers following prostate cancer in a large population based cohort to identify possible common etiological factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS All prostate cancer cases in the Swedish Cancer Registry (135, 713) from 1958 to the end of 1996 constituted the study base. Risk (standardized incidence ratio) of second primary cancers was calculated as the ratio between observed and expected number of cancers. We used 2-tailed 95% confidence intervals (CI) to test significance. RESULTS An overall increased risk (standardized incidence ratio 1.17, 95% CI 1.15-1.19) of second primary cancers was found but was only seen in the first 6 months of followup (ratio 3.45, 3.32-3.57). The most interesting finding was an increased risk (ratio 2.01, 95% CI 1.44-2.74) of male breast cancer. Other tumor sites with increased risk were the small intestine (standardized incidence ratio 1.39, 95% CI 1.09-1.51), skin melanoma (ratio 1.33, 95% CI 1.16-1.51) and endocrine tumors (ratio 1.41, 95% CI 1.13-1.74). CONCLUSIONS A small but increased risk of second primary cancers following prostate cancer was found, most likely due to increased surveillance during the first 6 months after diagnosis. However, following prostate cancer there is an increased risk of endocrine related second primary cancers such as male breast cancer and carcinoids in the small intestine. To our knowledge these associations have not been reported previously, and they warrant more study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To describe the risk of second malignancy following a diagnosis of prostate cancer, in British Columbia (BC), Canada. To ascertain whether that risk changed with the use of radiation therapy. METHODS AND MATERIALS All invasive cases of prostate cancer diagnosed from 1984 through to 2000 were retrieved from the BC Tumor Registry. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) were calculated from observed and expected numbers as a percentage. Patients were divided into those who received high-dose radiation therapy (>/=45 Gy, RT group) and those not treated with radiation (non-RT group). RESULTS Overall there was no significant difference between observed and expected second cancer rates, SIR=100 (RT group, N=101; non-RT group, N=98, P=n.s.). Individual tumour sites at significantly increased risk (P<0.01) included bladder (non-RT group, SIR=132), colo-rectal (RT group, SIR=121), pleura (RT group, SIR=228). Other sites of possible significance (P<0.05) include sarcoma (RT group, SIR=170) and testis (non-RT group, SIR=282). CONCLUSIONS Increased rates of bladder and testis cancers in the non-RT group are likely to be due to increased urologist surveillance and the use of therapeutic orchiectomy. Increased rates of colorectal cancer in those treated with radiation may be either due to surveillance or treatment. Increases in sarcomas in the RT group are probably treatment-related. Overall the increased second cancer risk for those undergoing radiation therapy was 1 in 220.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several large datasets have shown a reduced risk of all neoplasms after a diagnosis of prostate carcinoma but an increased incidence rate of urologic carcinoma has been suggested. METHODS Data collected by the Cancer Registries of the Swiss Cantons of Vaud and Neuchâtel (approximately 760,000 inhabitants) were used to estimate the incidence rate of a second primary tumor after a diagnosis of prostate carcinoma. A total of 4503 cases registered between 1974 and 1994 were followed until the end of 1996 (17,065 person-years). RESULTS A total of 380 second primary neoplasms were observed versus 534.1 expected primary neoplasms (standardized incidence ratio [SIR] = 0.7; 95% confidence interval, 0.6-0.8). SIRs were significantly below unity for lung carcinoma (SIR = 0.7) and other major tobacco-related neoplasms, including those of the mouth or pharynx (SIR = 0.5), esophagus (SIR = 0.4), pancreas (SIR = 0.5), and larynx (SIR = 0.8). There was no excess rate of subsequent urologic carcinoma (SIR = 1.0) or colorectal carcinoma (SIR = 0.9). The reduced SIRs for lung carcinoma were stronger in elderly men (age >/= 75 years) and in patients with a shorter period since diagnosis (< 5 years). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of all neoplasms was reduced significantly in men diagnosed with prostate carcinoma. Selection of the population, under-registration of second primary tumors, and reduced surveillance in elderly men with prostate carcinoma may, at least in part, explain this reduction in risk. No excess risk was observed for the complex of urologic neoplasms nor for tobacco-related neoplasms. This finding would not support an association between cigarette smoking and prostate carcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patterns of excess risk for second primary cancers (SPC) in prostate cancer patients have been observed for urinary bladder, other sites in the urinary tract, and hematolymphopoietic tissues in several, but not all, previously reported cohort studies. METHODS The risk of SPC was evaluated in 9,794 Detroit metropolitan-area men originally diagnosed with carcinoma of the prostate during 1973-1982. The cohort was assembled using Detroit Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Registry data and followed until December 31, 1993. RESULTS The observed number of SPC of all sites was similar to the expected number in the cohort. A significant excess of invasive SPC of the urinary bladder [Standardized incidence ratio (SIR) = 1.57; 95% CI, 1.34-1.83] was observed in this cohort, but after excluding the first 2 months after prostate cancer diagnosis, the excess (SIR = 1.06) was no longer statistically significant. The cumulative proportion of patients with prostate cancer who developed bladder cancer during a follow-up interval of 20 years was 5.5% (95% CI, 4.1-6.9%). The patients who received first-course radiation treatment were observed to be at increased risk for bladder SPC (all stages; SIR = 1.49; 95% CI, 1.07-2.02) when compared to the Detroit-area male population. CONCLUSIONS These results underscore the importance of continuing medical surveillance for urinary bladder second primary cancers in patients with prostate cancer, but are reassuring in that the magnitude of relative and absolute risks does not suggest deterring adverse effects of radiation treatment or intrinsic risks for neoplasms in other organs or tissues.
