[PMID: 38954076 DOI: 10.1007/s10147-024-02575-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND In Japan, comprehensive cancer statistics are collected through cancer registries. However, data on urological cancers are rarely summarized or published in research papers. METHODS This retrospective study was performed using publicly available statistical data on urological cancers (prostate cancer [PCa], bladder cancer [BCa], and cancers of kidney and urinary tract [except urinary bladder]) in Japan, including a summary of the Ministry's mortality statistics, cancer incidence statistics from the Regional Cancer Registries through 2015, and the National Cancer Registry statistics from 2016. We examined the incidence and mortality rates of urological cancers stratified by age groups. RESULTS The number of new cases of PCa, BCa, and cancers of kidney and urinary tract (except urinary bladder) in 2019 was 94,748, 23,383, and 30,458, respectively, and the number of deaths in 2022 was 13,439, 9,598, and 9,795, respectively. The incidence and mortality rates of urological cancers have consistently increased. Since 2000, there has been a noteworthy increase in the mortality rate of urological cancers among individuals aged > 85 years. The incidence and mortality rates of BCa and cancers of kidney and urinary tract (except urinary bladder) were significantly higher in males than in females. CONCLUSIONS Urological cancers in very elderly patients (> 85 years) will become increasingly important in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted radiopharmaceuticals allow whole-body imaging to detect prostate cancer (PC). Positron emission tomography imaging using gallium-68 (68Ga)-PSMA-11 has been shown to have a favorable safety and tolerability profile and high diagnostic performance. The study evaluates the safety and pharmacokinetics of 68Ga-PSMA-11 in Japanese patients with primary, recurrent, or suspected recurrent prostate cancer. METHODS This single arm study enrolled Japanese patients with primary PC (n = 3), suspected recurrent PC following radical prostatectomy (n = 4), or suspected recurrent PC following radical radiotherapy (n = 3). All patients received a single intravenous dose of 68Ga-PSMA-11 2.0 MBq/kg (±10%) followed by PSMA PET imaging and safety and pharmacokinetic evaluations. Based on the blood concentrations of 68Ga-PSMA-11 and the radioactivity distribution rate in each organ/tissue, the absorbed doses in major organs/tissues and the whole-body effective dose were calculated by the Medical Internal Radiation Dose method. RESULTS Ten patients were enrolled. Mean age was 73.3 ± 4.8 years, and median prostate-specific antigen was 8.250 ng/mL. Five patients (50%) experienced a total of 6 adverse events, and no grade ≥ 2 adverse events or serious adverse events were reported. No clinically significant changes in vital signs, haematology parameters, or blood chemistry or ECG abnormalities were observed. The estimated whole body effective dose of 68Ga-PSMA-11 (mean ± standard deviation) was 2.524 × 10-2 ± 2.546 × 10-3 mSv/MBq. Time to maximum concentration (1.16 × 10-4 ± 1.3 × 10-5% ID/mL) in whole blood was 2.15 ± 0.33 min. CONCLUSIONS 68Ga-PSMA-11 has a favourable safety and tolerability profile in Japanese patients with primary, recurrent, or suspected recurrent prostate cancer, which is comparable to previous observations in other populations.

The Impact of Prostate-Specific Antigen Screening on Prostate Cancer Incidence and Mortality in China: 13-Year Prospective Population-Based Cohort Study. JMIR Public Health Surveill 2024; 10:e47161. [PMID: 38236627 PMCID: PMC10835592 DOI: 10.2196/47161] [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: 03/10/2023] [Revised: 09/18/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The status of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening is unclear in China. Evidence regarding the optimal frequency and interval of serial screening for prostate cancer (PCa) is disputable. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to depict the status of PSA screening and to explore the optimal screening frequency for PCa in China. METHODS A 13-year prospective cohort study was conducted using the Chinese Electronic Health Records Research in Yinzhou study's data set. A total of 420,941 male participants aged ≥45 years were included between January 2009 and June 2022. Diagnosis of PCa, cancer-specific death, and all-cause death were obtained from the electronic health records and vital statistic system. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% CIs were estimated using Cox regression analysis. RESULTS The cumulative rate of ever PSA testing was 17.9% with an average annual percent change (AAPC) of 8.7% (95% CI 3.6%-14.0%) in the past decade in China. People with an older age, a higher BMI, higher waist circumference, tobacco smoking and alcohol drinking behaviors, higher level of physical activity, medication use, and comorbidities were more likely to receive PSA screening, whereas those with a lower education level and a widowed status were less likely to receive the test. People receiving serial screening ≥3 times were at a 67% higher risk of PCa detection (HR 1.67; 95% CI 1.48-1.88) but a 64% lower risk of PCa-specific mortality (HR 0.36; 95% CI 0.18-0.70) and a 28% lower risk of overall mortality (HR 0.72; 95% CI 0.67-0.77). People following a serial screening strategy at least once every 4 years were at a 25% higher risk of PCa detection (HR 1.25; 95% CI 1.13-1.36) but 70% (HR 0.30; 95% CI 0.16-0.57) and 23% (HR 0.77; 95% CI 0.73-0.82) lower risks of PCa-specific and all-cause mortality, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This study reveals a low coverage of PSA screening in China and provides the first evidence of its benefits in the general Chinese population. The findings of this study indicate that receiving serial screening at least once every 4 years is beneficial for overall and PCa-specific survival. Further studies based on a nationwide population and with long-term follow-up are warranted to identify the optimal screening interval in China.

Low hemoglobin and PSA kinetics are prognostic factors of overall survival in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients. Sci Rep 2023; 13:2672. [PMID: 36792713 PMCID: PMC9931698 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-29634-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2022] [Accepted: 02/08/2023] [Indexed: 02/17/2023] Open
Abstract
The objective of this study was to identify the prognostic factors and to propose a new risk model in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients. The clinical data were retrospectively obtained for 102 mCRPC patients who received cancer treatment between 2005 and 2018 at the University of Tokyo Hospital. We investigated clinical and pathological parameters, including prostate-specific antigen (PSA) kinetic profiles under androgen deprivation treatment, and identified predictors of overall survival (OS). The median age and PSA were 73 (Interquartile range [IQR], 68-79) years and 5.00 (IQR, 2.77-13.6) ng/ml. The median follow-up was 34 (IQR, 17-56) months. In univariate analysis, 'lymph node metastasis', 'Hemoglobin (Hb)', 'Time to nadir PSA (TNPSA)', 'PSA doubling time (PSADT)', 'Time to CRPC', and 'presence of pain' were prognostic factors. Multivariate analysis identified 'Hb < 11 g/dL', 'TNPSA < 7 months' and 'PSADT < 5 months' as independent prognostic factors of OS. The high-risk group (patients with two or three factors) demonstrated shorter OS (23 vs. 50 months) with an increased risk of death (HR = 2.997; 95% CI 1.632-5.506; P = 0.0004). The proposed risk stratification model may contribute to the prediction of survival and provide supportive information in treatment decision-making.

Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14246076. [PMID: 36551562 PMCID: PMC9775633 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14246076] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2022] [Revised: 12/06/2022] [Accepted: 12/06/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to project new cancer cases/deaths forward to 2054, and decompose changes in cancer cases/deaths to assess the impact of demographic transitions on cancer burden. METHODS We collected data on cancer cases/deaths up to 2019, empirically validated the projection performance of multiple statistical models, and selected optimal models by applying time series cross-validation. RESULTS We showed an increasing number of new cancer cases but decreasing number of cancer deaths in both genders, with a large burden attributed to population aging. We observed the increasing incidence rates in most cancer sites but reducing rates in some infection-associated cancers, including stomach and liver cancers. Colorectal and lung cancers were projected to remain as leading cancer burdens of both incidence and mortality in Japan over 2020-2054, while prostate and female breast cancers would be the leading incidence burdens among men and women, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Findings from decomposition analysis require more supportive interventions for reducing mortality and improving the quality of life of Japanese elders. We emphasize the important role of governments and policymakers in reforming policies for controlling cancer risk factors, including oncogenic infections. The rapid increase and continued presence of those cancer burdens associated with modifiable risk factors warrant greater efforts in cancer control programs, specifically in enhancing cancer screening and controlling cancer risk factors in Japan.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess survival outcomes in older patients with de novo metastatic prostate cancer who initially received androgen deprivation therapy. METHODS The retrospective multicenter study included 2784 men with metastatic prostate cancer who were treated with androgen deprivation therapy between 2008 and 2017. Patients were classified into <75, 75-79, and ≥80 age groups. Propensity score matching was conducted to assess the cancer-specific survival of the groups. The 5-year net overall survival of each group was derived to evaluate relative survival compared with the general population using the Pohar-Perme estimator and the 2019 Japan Life Table. RESULTS During the follow-up (median, 34 months), 1014 patients died, of which 807 died from metastatic prostate cancer progression. Compared with the <75 group, the cancer-specific survival of the 75-79 group was similar (hazard ratio 1.07; 95% confidence interval 0.84-1.37; P = 0.580), whereas that of the ≥80 group was significantly worse (hazard ratio 1.41; 95% confidence interval 1.10-1.80; P = 0.006). The 5-year net overall survival of the <75, 75-79, and ≥80 age groups were 0.678, 0761, and 0.718, respectively. The 5-year net overall survival of patients aged ≥80 years with low- and high-volume disease were 0.893 and 0.586, respectively, which was comparable with those in patients aged <75 years (0.872 and 0.586, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Older metastatic prostate cancer patients aged ≥80 years had poorer cancer-specific survival compared with younger patients. Conversely, 5-year net overall survival in older patients aged ≥80 years was comparable with that in younger patients aged <75 years.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We examine international incidence trends of lung, colorectal, prostate, and breast cancers, as well as all cancers combined excluding non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) in adults aged 50 and older, over a fifteen-year period using data from 113 high quality population-based cancer registries included in the Cancer in Five Continents (CI5) series and NORDCAN. MATERIALS AND METHODS We calculated annual incidence rates between 1998 and 2012 for ages 50-64, 65-74, and 75+, by sex and both sexes combined. We estimated average annual percentage change (AAPC) in rates using quasi-Poisson regression models. RESULTS From 1998 to 2012, incidence trends for all cancers (excluding NMSC) have increased in most countries across all age groups, with the greatest increase observed in adults aged 75+ in Ecuador (AAPC = +3%). Colorectal cancer incidence rates increased in the majority of countries, across all age groups. Lung cancer rates among females have increased but decreased for males. Prostate cancer rates have sharply increased in men aged 50-64 with AAPC between 5% and 15% in 24 countries, while decreasing in the 75+ age group in 21 countries, by up to -7% in Bahrain. Female breast cancer rates have increased across all age groups in most countries, especially in the 65-74 age group and in Asia with AAPC increasing to 7% in the Republic of Korea. CONCLUSIONS These findings assist with anticipating changing patterns and needs internationally. Due to the specific needs of older patients, it is urgent that cancer systems adapt to address their growing number.

Abstract
The incidence of prostate cancer among older men has increased in many countries, including Asian countries. However, older patients are ineligible for inclusion in large randomized trials, and the existing guidelines for the management of patients with prostate cancer do not provide specific treatment recommendations for older men. Therefore, generation of evidence for older patients with prostate cancer is a key imperative. The International Society of Geriatric Oncology has produced and updated several guidelines for management of prostate cancer in older men since 2010. Regarding localized prostate cancer, both surgery and radiotherapy are considered as feasible treatment options for intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer even in older men, whereas watchful waiting and active surveillance are useful options for a proportion of these patients. With regard to advanced disease, androgen-receptor axis targets and taxane chemotherapy are standard treatment modalities, although dose modification and prevention of adverse events need to be considered. Management strategy for older patients with prostate cancer should take cognizance of not only the chronological age but also psychological and physical condition, socio-economic status and patient preferences. Geriatric assessment and patient-reported health-related quality of life are important tools for assessing health status of older patients with prostate cancer; however, there is a paucity of evidence of the impact of these tools on the clinical outcomes. Personalized management according to the patient's health status and tumour characteristics as well as socio-economic condition may be necessary for treatment of older patients with prostate cancer.

Continued decrease in smoking prevalence and increasing use of sensitive diagnostic procedures necessitate updated monitoring of trends in lung cancer incidence in Japan. We analyzed histology- and stage-specific trends in 1993-2015 using data from 62,870 diagnosed cases from the Monitoring of Cancer Incidence in Japan project. After applying a multiple imputation approach to impute missing/unknown values of stage and histology, we estimated age-standardized incidence rates and applied joinpoint regression analyses. We observed long-term growth trends in adenocarcinoma (ADC) and localized cancer among both genders, long-term declining trends among men and leveling-off trends among women in small-cell carcinoma (SMC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SQC). Stratifying by gender, we observed an increase in localized ADC with average annual percentage changes (AAPC) of 4.5 (95% confidence interval: 3.9 to 5.0) and 5.7 (5.0 to 6.4), a decrease in regional ADC with AAPC of -1.5 (-2.5 to -0.6) and -2.3 (-4.6 to 0.0), but an increase in distant ADC with AAPC of 1.5 (1.1 to 1.9) and 1.6 (0.9 to 2.3) among males and females, respectively. Additionally, increasing trends in female-to-male incidence rate ratios were observed in localized ADC with significantly above one in the most recent diagnosis period. Our results revealed evidence for a partial shift from advanced to early cancer stage, which may suggest the modest effectiveness of nationwide organized screening programs. The observed increasing localized and distant ADC may be linked to improved diagnostic procedures, especially for metastasis detection. Further investigation is needed for more accurate quantification of these factors.

Abstract
Background Unlike many North American and European countries, Japan has observed a continuous increase in cancer incidence over the last few decades. We examined the most recent trends in population-based cancer incidence and mortality in Japan. Methods National cancer mortality data between 1958 and 2018 were obtained from published vital statistics. Cancer incidence data between 1985 and 2015 were obtained from high-quality population-based cancer registries maintained by three prefectures (Yamagata, Fukui, and Nagasaki). Trends in age-standardized rates (ASR) were examined using Joinpoint regression analysis. Results For males, all-cancer incidence increased between 1985 and 1996 (annual percent change [APC] +1.1%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.7–1.5%), increased again in 2000–2010 (+1.3%; 95% CI, 0.9–1.8%), and then decreased until 2015 (−1.4%; 95% CI, −2.5 to −0.3%). For females, all-cancer incidence increased until 2010 (+0.8%; 95% CI, 0.6–0.9% in 1985–2004 and +2.4%; 95% CI, 1.3–3.4% in 2004–2010), and stabilized thereafter until 2015. The post-2000 increase was mainly attributable to prostate in males and breast in females, which slowed or levelled during the first decade of the 2000s. After a sustained increase, all-cancer mortality for males decreased in 1996–2013 (−1.6%; 95% CI, −1.6 to −1.5%) and accelerated thereafter until 2018 (−2.5%; 95% CI, −2.9 to −2.0%). All-cancer mortality for females decreased intermittently throughout the observation period, with the most recent APC of −1.0% (95% CI, −1.1 to −0.9%) in 2003–2018. The recent decreases in mortality in both sexes, and in incidence in males, were mainly attributable to stomach, liver, and male lung cancers. Conclusion The ASR of all-cancer incidence began decreasing significantly in males and levelled off in females in 2010.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Most metastatic prostate cancers acquire the capacity for androgen-independent growth and become resistant to androgen deprivation therapy. A patient-focused treatment strategy is needed for aggressive castration-resistant prostate cancer. CASE PRESENTATION We report the case of a 62-year-old man who presented with prostatic adenocarcinoma who was treated by radiation and combined androgen blockade. After completion of first-line therapy, he was diagnosed with multiple metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer in the lung. Second-line therapy with abiraterone acetate resulted in partial remission of the lung metastases. Thoracic surgery was performed to remove the single lung metastasis remaining. Next-generation sequencing of the specimens demonstrated homozygous loss of BRCA2. We note in this case a heterogeneous response to abiraterone acetate may be related to the somatic BRCA2 deletions. CONCLUSIONS We present the first Japanese case of a metastatic abiraterone acetate-resistant castration-resistant prostate cancer accompanied by BRCA2 mutation.
