[PMID: 39001350 PMCID: PMC11241612 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics14131461] [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: 06/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/04/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Predicting and improving the response of rectal cancer to second primary cancers (SPCs) remains an active and challenging field of clinical research. Identifying predictive risk factors for SPCs will help guide more personalized treatment strategies. In this study, we propose that experience data be used as evidence to support patient-oriented decision-making. The proposed model consists of two main components: a pipeline for extraction and classification and a clinical risk assessment. The study includes 4402 patient datasets, including 395 SPC patients, collected from three cancer registry databases at three medical centers; based on literature reviews and discussion with clinical experts, 10 predictive variables were considered risk factors for SPCs. The proposed extraction and classification pipelines that classified patients according to importance were age at diagnosis, chemotherapy, smoking behavior, combined stage group, and sex, as has been proven in previous studies. The C5 method had the highest predicted AUC (84.88%). In addition, the proposed model was associated with a classification pipeline that showed an acceptable testing accuracy of 80.85%, a recall of 79.97%, a specificity of 88.12%, a precision of 85.79%, and an F1 score of 79.88%. Our results indicate that chemotherapy is the most important prognostic risk factor for SPCs in rectal cancer survivors. Furthermore, our decision tree for clinical risk assessment illuminates the possibility of assessing the effectiveness of a combination of these risk factors. This proposed model may provide an essential evaluation and longitudinal change for personalized treatment of rectal cancer survivors in the future.

Incidence and risk of remnant gastric cancer after gastrectomy for gastric cancer: a population-based study from the SEER database. BMC Gastroenterol 2024; 24:35. [PMID: 38229048 DOI: 10.1186/s12876-024-03133-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2024] [Indexed: 01/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer (GC) constitutes a major global health problem, of which remnant gastric cancer (RGC) occurs less frequently. The rate of RGCs after gastrectomy for GC is increasing recently due to improved survival and screening, however, their incidence and risk have not been reported in the U.S. POPULATION The objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence and elevated risk of RGC after GC gastrectomy in this population, and to identify the risk factors. METHODS Patients underwent gastrectomy for first primary GC in 2000-2015 and those who developed RGC were identified from Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database. Fine-Gray regression was used to estimate the cumulative incidence and to identify risk factors. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) were calculated by Poisson regression to compare the risk with the general population. RESULTS Among 21,566 patients included in the cohort, 227 developed RGC. The 20-year cumulative incidence of RGC was 1.88%. Multivariate analysis revealed that older age, invasion depth, male sex, marital status, and lower income are independent risk factors for RGC development. SIR was 7.70 overall and > 4.5 in each stratum. CONCLUSIONS Cumulative incidence and risk for RGCs increased continuously in patients underwent GC gastrectomy. Close and lifelong endoscopy surveillance should be recommended for patients who received GC gastrectomy, especially those with high-risk factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the growth in primary cancer (PC) survivors, the trends and disparities in this population have yet to be comprehensively examined using competing risk analysis. The objective is to examine trends in time to second primary cancer (SPC) and to characterize age, sex, and racial disparities in time-to-SPC. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted based on Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER). Two datasets for this study are (1) the discovery dataset with patients from SEER-8 (1990-2019) and (2) the validation dataset with patients from SEER-17 (2000-2019), excluding those in the discovery dataset. Patients were survivors of lung, colorectal, breast (female only), and prostate PCs. RESULTS The 5-year SPC cumulative incidences of lung PC increased from 1990 to 2019, with the cumulative incidence ratio being 1.73 (95% confidence intervals [CI], 1.64-1.82; p < 0.001). Age disparities among all PCs remained from 2010 to 2019, and the adjusted HRs (aHRs) of all PCs were above 1.43 when those below 65 were compared with those 65 and above. Sex disparity exists among colorectal and lung PC survivors. Racial disparities existed among non-Hispanic (NH) Black breast PC survivors (aHR: 1.11; 95% CI: 1.07-1.17; p < 0.001). The types of SPC vary according to PC and sex. CONCLUSIONS Over the past three decades, there has been a noticeably shortened time-to-SPC among lung PC survivors. This is likely attributed to the reduced number of lung cancer deaths due to advancements in effective treatments. However, disparities in age, sex, and race still exist, indicating that further effort is needed to close the gap.

Risk factors for metachronous colorectal cancer and advanced neoplasia following primary colorectal cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis. BMC Gastroenterol 2023; 23:421. [PMID: 38036994 PMCID: PMC10688466 DOI: 10.1186/s12876-023-03053-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 12/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Identifying risk factors for metachronous colorectal cancer (CRC) and metachronous advanced neoplasia could be useful for guiding surveillance. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate risk factors for metachronous CRC and advanced neoplasia. METHODS Searches were conducted in MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials for articles (searching period: 1945 to Feburary, 2021) that reported the results of an association between any factor and metachronous advanced neoplasia or metachronous CRC. There were no restrictions on the publication date or language. Random effects models were fitted to estimate the combined association between the risk factors and metachronous CRC or advanced neoplasia. The Risk of Bias In Non-Randomised Studies of Interventions tool (ROBINS-I) was used to assess the risk of bias of included studies. RESULTS In total, 22 observational studies with 625,208 participants were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. Of these, 13 studies investigated risk factors for metachronous CRC and 9 for advanced neoplasia. The risks of metachronous CRC or advanced neoplasia were higher if the first CRC was diagnosed in the presence of a synchronous advanced lesion (pooled risk ratio (RR) from 3 studies: 3.61, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.44-9.05; and pooled RR from 8 studies: 2.77, 95% CI: 2.23-3.43, respectively). The risk of metachronous CRC was lower, but the risk of metachronous advanced neoplasia was higher if the first CRC was distal (compared with proximal) (pooled RR from 3 studies: 0.48, 95% CI: 0.23-0.98; and pooled RR from 2 studies: 2.99, 95% CI: 1.60-5.58 respectively). The risk of metachronous advanced neoplasia increased with age (pooled RR from 3 studies: 1.07 per year of age, 95% CI: 1.03-1.11). There was no evidence that any lifestyle risk factors studied were associated with the risk of metachronous CRC or advanced neoplasia. CONCLUSIONS The identified risk factors for metachronous CRC and advanced neoplasia might be useful to tailor the existing surveillance guidelines after the first CRC. There were potential limitations due to possible misclassification of the outcome, confounding and risk of bias, and the findings cannot be generalised to high-risk genetic syndrome cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND At present, there was no large epidemiological study exploring the actual incidence and survival of second primary colorectal cancer (spCRC). The different characteristics and survival of patients with spCRC and initial primary colorectal cancer (ipCRC) still need to be elucidated. In addition, the factors leading to different survival status of spCRC and ipCRC were still unclear. Our study plan to explore the annual incidence trend of spCRC as well as the factors influencing the occurrence and survival outcome of spCRC. METHODS This cohort study analyzed the data of 4680 spCRC patients and 330,937 initial primary colorectal cancer (ipCRC) patients. Whether patients had spCRC and whether spCRC patients survived or died were regarded as outcomes. The annual incidence of spCRC from 2004 to 2016 was analyzed by Jointpoint regression analysis. The truncation points were found, and the annual percentage change (APC) of each segment was calculated to explore the trend of spCRC change in the United States. Univariate and multivariable cox regression analyses were conducted to identify factors associated with the occurrence and prognosis of spCRC patients. RESULTS The total incidence of spCRC was decreased during 2000-2016 on the whole. The overall incidence of spCRC was lowered in both males and females despite 2013-2014, in the left colon, right colon, rectum and others. The incidence of spCRC was decreased in both 18-49 years' people and ≥ 50 years' people during 2000-2016, and the incidence of spCRC in the ≥ 50 years' people group was higher than those of 18-49 years. Insured (OR = 0.867 (0.778-0.966), initial primary site of other digestive (OR = 0.46, 95%CI: 0.42-0.50), rectum (OR = 0.74, 95%CI: 0.66-0.82), or right colon (OR = 0.73, 95%CI: 0.68-0.79), N 1 stage (OR = 0.87, 95%CI: 0.76-0.99), M 1 stage (OR = 0.49, 95%CI: 0.30-0.80), AJCC II stage (OR = 0.70, 95%CI: 0.60-0.82), AJCC III stage (OR = 0.69, 95%CI: 0.56-0.84), and radiation (OR = 0.69, 95%CI: 0.57-0.83) were associated with the risk of spCRC. At the end of follow-up, 2,246 spCRC patients were survived and 2,434 spCRC patients were dead. Patients with spCRC had poor survival probability than patients with ipCRC. Older age (HR = 1.02, 95%CI: 1.02-1.03), male (HR = 1.13, 95%CI: 1.04-1.23), Black (HR = 1.20, 95%CI: 1.06-1.35), uninsured (HR = 1.36, 95%CI: 1.16-1.59), Signet ring cell carcinoma (HR = 1.64, 95%CI: 1.19-2.25), T4 stage (HR = 1.63, 95%CI: 1.32-2.01), N2 stage (HR = 1.36, 95%CI: 1.08-1.72), M1 stage (HR = 4.51, 95%CI: 2.00-10.18), AJCC III (HR = 1.47, 95%CI: 1.08-1.98), and radiation (HR = 1.82, 95%CI: 1.43-2.33) were associated with increased risk of mortality in spCRC patients. CONCLUSION The incidence of spCRC was decreased except in people with initial primary tumor grade IV and those aged 15-39 years. The overall survival of spCRC patients was lower than ipCRC patients. Cancer patients with older age, high tumor grade, TNM stage, and AJCC stage should be caution to the occurrence of spCRC and timely interventions should be provided for spCRC patients to improve their outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Additive chemotherapeutic treatment of UICC-stage -III / IV colon cancer with fluorouracil, leucovorin and oxaliplatin is widely accepted as current standard of treatment after R0-resection. However, as patients.. survival is increasing, long-term side effects of chemotherapeutic agents such as second cancer development are becoming increasingly important. PATIENTS We therefore investigated a total of 2 856 Patients with UICC-stage III / IV colon cancer, 223 of whom (7.8%) had developed a subsequent second cancer. RESULTS Median follow-up was 73.2 months (range 209.9 months, 95%-CI 69.8-76.9). Most frequent second cancers were prostate cancer (18.4%), colon cancer (16.1%), breast cancers (8.1%), lung cancer (8.1%), rectal cancer (4.9%) and uterine cancer (4.9%). However, in comparison to non-treated patients this did not represent a significantly increased risk for subsequent second cancer in patients after treatment with additive chemotherapy. Of interest, our data suggest a significantly decreased second cancer rate in patients treated with FOLFOX compared to FUFOL for additive treatment. CONCLUSIONS Second cancer development was not increased after additive chemotherapy for colon cancer, which is a novel aspect in the ongoing discussions on reduction of adjuvant treatment to 3 months or treatment of lymph node negative patients. Novelty and Impact Statement To our knowledge, this is the first population-based study analyzing second cancer development after additive chemotherapy in patients with UICC III-IV colon cancer. The results have an important impact on the surveillance and long-term follow-up of cancer patients.

Abstract
Background Nasopharynx carcinoma (NPC) is the most common malignant tumor of the nasopharynx. Many studies have shown some factors related with the prognosis of NPC patients. Our study aims to evaluate the differences of prognosis between initial and second primary NPC. Material and methods The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program was used to perform the population-based analysis in NPC patients who were newly diagnosed between 2004 and 2015. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regressions were used to evaluate the effects of primary site on the overall survival (OS), as well as the cancer-specific survival (CSS). Results Our study included 5,012 NPC patients: 4,474 initial primary NPC patients and 5,38 s primary NPC patients. Significant differences were observed in sex, age at diagnosis, race, median household income, histological type, American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) stage, N-stage, radiation treatment and chemotherapy between patients with initial and second NPC (P < 0.05). Moreover, the patients with second NPC had longer survival months. In addition, radiation and chemotherapy were recommended both in first and second primary NPC patients. Conclusion Worse prognosis was observed in patients with second primary NPC compared with those with primary NPC in all subgroups of AJCC stage and age at diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Second primary cancer (SPC) after primary colorectal cancer (CRC), emerges as a novel challenge for cancer prevention with pronounced differences between female and male patients. METHODS This was a retrospective study of 140 907 CRC survivors from the surveillance, epidemiology, and end results program database. Competing risk models and nomograms were constructed to predict the risk of SPCs, which were assessed with the C-Index, calibration and decision curve analysis. RESULTS The 10-year cumulative incidence of SPC was higher in male than in female CRC survivors. The top five common SPCs in female CRC survivors were colorectal, breast, lung and bronchus, corpus and uterus and pancreatic cancers, while in male were prostate, colorectal, lung and bronchus, urinary cancer and melanoma of the skin. Breast and prostate were the most common sites for the development of SPCs after CRC. Older age, stage I and surgery were common risk factors for SPCs in both female and male. The nomogram for predicting the risk of developing SPC-breast cancer in female patients included age, race, site, histology grade, surgery, chemotherapy and stage. However, the model of predicting SPC-prostate cancer in male patients included age, race, site, size, surgery, chemotherapy, radiation and stage. Notably, the nomograms were validated to have a precise discriminative ability, accuracy and clinical effectiveness. CONCLUSIONS The study surveyed the characteristics of CRC survivors with a particular focus on the incidence of SPC. The models could help supervise the development of a second breast or prostate cancer in female or male CRC survivors.

Abstract
Background: The increasing number of young colorectal cancer (CRC) survivors has led to ongoing concerns about the risk of secondary primary malignancies (SPMs). Here, we intended to comprehensively explore the pooled standardized incidence rates (SIRs) for total and site-specific SPMs in CRC survivors with different restriction to lag period. Methods: Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of science databases were searched to identify any studies reporting the SIRs of SPM following CRC until August 2021. Total and site-specific SIRs with different restriction to lag period were pooled using fixed/random effect models. Results: A total of 42 full-text publications with more than 1, 524, 236 CRC survivors and 166, 210 SPM patients were included in the meta-analysis. Pooled data showed an increased SIRs for all SPMs in CRC survivors with different restriction to lag period (no restriction to lag period, SIR = 1.15, 95% CI = [1.08–1.23]; 1-year lag, 1.16 [1.10–1.23]; 5-year lag, 1.18 [1.09–1.28]; 10-year lag, 1.24 [1.11–1.39]). The conclusions were consistent for neoplasms of colorectum, corpus uteri, and small intestine with different restriction to lag period. However, limited evidence was presented for associations between CRC survivors and SPM for prostate, breast (female), ovarian, stomach, urinary bladder, kidney, thyroid, bone and soft tissue. Conclusion: CRC survivors are associated with an increased risk of SPMs, especially neoplasms of colorectum, corpus uteri, and small intestine. Further studies should explore the risks for these neoplasms in CRC survivors, thus providing the reference for future follow-up care.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignancy in the U.S. and worldwide. Most CRC cases arise from precancerous adenomatous and serrated polyps. Established risk factors for conventional adenomas and CRC include age, male sex, family history, obesity and physical inactivity, and red meat intake. White race and tobacco and alcohol use are important risk factors for serrated polyps, which have a distinct risk factor profile compared to conventional adenomas. A history of abdominopelvic radiation, acromegaly, hereditary hemochromatosis, or prior ureterosigmoidostomy also increases CRC risk. Understanding these risk factors allows for targeted screening of high-risk groups to reduce CRC incidence.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Multiple primary malignancies (MPMs) are likely to develop in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC); however, their prognoses are unclear. This study aims to investigate the prognostic impacts and clinicopathological features of multiple CRCs and extracolorectal malignancies (EMs) with CRC. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated a total of 22,628 patients with stage I-III CRC who underwent curative resection at 24 referral institutes in Japan between January 2004 and December 2012. MPMs were classified as synchronous CRCs (SCRCs), metachronous CRCs, synchronous EMs (SEMs), and metachronous EMs. RESULTS The presence of SCRCs (odds ratio 1.54, p < 0.001) was independently associated with SEMs in the multivariate analyses. SEMs were the strongest poor prognostic factor for OS (hazard ratio [HR] 2.21, p < 0.001) and RFS (HR 1.69, p < 0.001) compared with age, sex, and primary T and N factors. The incidence of stomach cancer was the highest in EMs, followed by lung, breast, and prostate cancers. Multiple CRCs were evenly distributed throughout the right-side colon to the rectum. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION SEMs were a strong poor prognostic factor for patients with stage I-III CRC. Patients with CRC, particularly those with SCRCs, should be surveyed for SEMs, especially for stomach and lung cancers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Improvements in early detection and treatment have resulted in an increasing number of long-term survivors of colorectal cancer (CRC). For the survivors, second primary cancer and recurrence are important issues; however, evidence for an appropriate surveillance strategy remains limited.This study aimed to investigate the frequency and timing of second primary cancer in patients after surgery for exploring an appropriate surveillance strategy by using an integrated analysis of three large-scale randomized controlled trials in Japan. METHODS The eligibility criteria of three trials included histologically confirmed CRC and having received surgery. The timing, site and frequency of second primary cancers and recurrence were investigated. Risk factors associated with second primary cancers were also examined. The standardized incidence ratio (SIR) of second primary cancers compared with the national database of the Japan Cancer Registry was estimated. RESULTS A total of 2824 patients were included in this study. The cumulative incidence of second primary cancer increased over time. The SIR of any second primary cancer was 1.07 (95% CI: 0.94-1.21). The SIR for second primary cancers of colon was 1.09 (95% CI: 0.79-1.47). The cumulative incidence of recurrence almost reached plateau at 3 years. CONCLUSIONS A common surveillance strategy for the general population can be applied even for curatively resected CRC patients, as the risk of second primary cancers was almost the same as that of the general population.

Abstract
Background To shed light on the survival outcomes of prostate cancer (PCa) patients diagnosed after a prior cancer and identify prognostic factors for overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in PCa patients. Methods In the primary group, a total of 1,778 PCa patients with a prior cancer were identified in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database from 2005 to 2015, retrospectively. Baseline characteristics and causes of death (COD) of these patients were collected and compared. In the second group, a total of 10,296 PCa patients [5,148 patients with PCa as the only malignancy and 5,148 patients with PCa as their second primary malignancy (SPM)] diagnosed between 2010 and 2011 were extracted to investigate the impact of prior cancers on survival outcomes. Results In PCa patients with a prior cancer, the most common type of prior cancer was from gastrointestinal system (29.92%), followed by urinary system (21.37%). Patients were more likely to die of the prior caner, and those with prior cancer from respiratory system had the worst survival outcomes. Moreover, the overall ratios in patients with stage (PCa) I–II and III–IV diseases were 0.21 and 1.65, indicating that patients with higher stage diseases were more likely to die of PCa. In the second group, patients with PCa as the SPM had worse OS than those with PCa as the first primary cancer. Lastly, prognostic factors for OS and CSS in PCa patients were explored. Conclusions PCa remains to be an important COD for patients with a prior malignancy, especially for those with high-stage diseases. PCa patients with a prior cancer had worse survival outcomes than those without.

Abstract
Background: Second primary malignancy (SPM) attracts a growing attention. However, the clinical features of colon cancer (CC) survivors with SPMs are not clear and could help guide clinicians to develop a better surveillance strategy. Methods: We reviewed 56,930 CC survivors treated with colectomy from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database during 1998–2011. Competing risk models and nomograms were conducted for predicting the risk of occurring SPMs. The clinical utility of the models was measured by decision curve analysis (DCA) using net benefit approaches. Results: Five thousand thirteen (17.1%) of male patients developed SPMs and sites of SPMs included prostate (32.2%), lung and bronchus (11.6%), urinary bladder and kidney (10.8%), colon (10.0%), and melanoma of the skin (3.9%), while 3,592 (13.0%) of female patients occurred SPMs and sites of SPMs involved breast (25.8%), lung and bronchus (13.6%), colon (11.6%), uterus (8.2%), urinary bladder, and kidney (5.6%). Survivors with a second carcinoma of lung and bronchus showed the worst prognosis. Older age increased the risk of SPMs in both male (Subdistribution hazard ratio =2.85 [95% confidence interval = 2.53–3.21]) and female (1.80 [1.59–2.04]) survivors, especially for the risk of a second prostate carcinoma in male (5.33 [4.03–7.03]). Compared with white race, black male survivors remained at higher risk to develop the second prostate carcinoma (1.98 [1.74–2.26]). Competing-risk nomograms for CC survivors were established to help clinicians predict the probabilities of overall SPMs and prostate carcinoma. Validation of nomograms showed good discrimination and accuracy, and DCAs revealed the clinical effectiveness. Conclusions: We profiled the clinical characteristics of a large population-based cohort of CC survivors with SPMs. These features may improve future follow-up management, especially for the surveillance of second prostate cancer in men and second breast cancer in women.

Developing a Novel Machine Learning-Based Classification Scheme for Predicting SPCs in Colorectal Cancer Survivors. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2020.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer is ranked third and fourth in terms of mortality and cancer incidence in the world. While advances in treatment strategies have provided cancer patients with longer survival, potentially harmful second primary cancers can occur. Therefore, second primary colorectal cancer analysis is an important issue with regard to clinical management. In this study, a novel predictive scheme was developed for predicting the risk factors associated with second colorectal cancer in patients with colorectal cancer by integrating five machine learning classification techniques, including support vector machine, random forest, multivariate adaptive regression splines, extreme learning machine, and extreme gradient boosting. A total of 4287 patients in the datasets provided by three hospital tumor registries were used. Our empirical results revealed that this proposed predictive scheme provided promising classification results and the identification of important risk factors for predicting second colorectal cancer based on accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve metrics. Collectively, our clinical findings suggested that the most important risk factors were the combined stage, age at diagnosis, BMI, surgical margins of the primary site, tumor size, sex, regional lymph nodes positive, grade/differentiation, primary site, and drinking behavior. Accordingly, these risk factors should be monitored for the early detection of second primary tumors in order to improve treatment and intervention strategies.
