Abstract
BACKGROUND The family history of gastric cancer holds important implications for cancer surveillance and prevention, yet existing evidence predominantly comes from case-control studies. We aimed to investigate the association between family history of gastric cancer and gastric cancer risk overall and by various subtypes in Asians in a prospective study. METHODS We included 12 prospective cohorts with 550,508 participants in the Asia Cohort Consortium. Cox proportional hazard regression was used to estimate study-specific adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between family history of gastric cancer and gastric cancer incidence and mortality, then pooled using random-effects meta-analyses. Stratified analyses were performed for the anatomical subsites and histological subtypes. RESULTS During the mean follow-up of 15.6 years, 2258 incident gastric cancers and 5194 gastric cancer deaths occurred. The risk of incident gastric cancer was higher in individuals with a family history of gastric cancer (HR 1.44, 95% CI 1.32-1.58), similarly in males (1.44, 1.31-1.59) and females (1.45, 1.23-1.70). Family history of gastric cancer was associated with both cardia (HR 1.26, 95% CI 1.00-1.60) and non-cardia subsites (1.49, 1.35-1.65), and with intestinal- (1.48, 1.30-1.70) and diffuse-type (1.59, 1.35-1.87) gastric cancer incidence. Positive associations were also found for gastric cancer mortality (HR 1.30, 95% CI 1.19-1.41). CONCLUSIONS In this largest prospective study to date on family history and gastric cancer, a familial background of gastric cancer increased the risk of gastric cancer in the Asian population. Targeted education, screening, and intervention in these high-risk groups may reduce the burden of gastric cancer.

BMC Cancer 2020; 20:1110. [PMID: 33198658 PMCID: PMC7670663 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-020-07612-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2020] [Accepted: 11/03/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Background People are at a high risk of gastric cancer if their first-degree relatives suffered from atrophic gastritis (AG), intestinal metaplasia (IM), intraepithelial neoplasia (IEN), dysplasia (DYS), or gastric cancer (GC). This study was performed to analyse the association between FDR-GC and GC precursors. Methods A cross-sectional study was performed to screen the prevalence of GC precursors from November 2016 to September 2019. A total of 1329 participants with FDR-GC, 193 participants with a family history of non-gastric cancer in FDRs (FDR-nGC), and 860 participants without a family history of cancer in FDRs (FDR-nC) were recruited in this study. The logistic regression model was used in this study. Results The prevalence of normal, Non-AG, AG/IM, IEN/DYS, and GC was 31.91, 44.21, 13.81, 8.73, and 1.34%, respectively. The prevalence of IEN/DYS was higher in people with FDR-GC and FDR-nGC (FDR-GC: odds ratio (OR) = 1.655; 95%CI, 1.153–2.376; FDR-nGC: OR = 1.984; 95%CI, 1.122–3.506) than those with FDR-nC. The younger the age at which FDRs were diagnosed with GC, the more likely the participants were to develop AG/IM (Ptrend = 0.019). The risk of precursors to GC was higher in participants whose FDR-GC was the mother than in those whose FDR-GC was the father or sibling (OR, non-AG: 1.312 vs. 1.007, 1.274; AG/IM: 1.430 vs. 1.296, 1.378; IEN/DYS: 1.988 vs. 1.573, 1.542). There was no statistically significant difference in non-AG (OR = 1.700; 95%CI, 0.940–3.074), AG/IM (OR = 1.291; 95%CI, 0.579–2.877), and IEN/DYS (OR = 1.265; 95%CI, 0.517–3.096) between participants with one or more FDR-GC. Conclusion People with FDR-GC and FDR-nGC are at a high risk of IEN/DYS. When an FDR was diagnosed at a younger age, the risk of AG/IM was higher. The risk of GC precursors was higher in people whose FDR-GC was the mother.

Abstract
PURPOSE Family history of gastric cancer is a major risk factor for the disease. In this study, we investigated the prognoses of patients with gastric cancer with a family history. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed data from 1,273 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma who had undergone gastrectomy between 2001 and 2005 at a tertiary cancer center hospital. A positive family history was defined as a self-reported history of cancer in first- or second-degree relatives. Patients were followed up until December 2009 for death or recurrence. Clinicopathologic characteristics were compared by family history. Kaplan-Meier plots and Cox proportional hazards regressions were applied for disease-free survival (DFS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Of 1,273 patients, 263 patients (20.6%) had first-degree relatives with a history of gastric cancer. First-degree family history of gastric cancer was associated with better DFS, RFS, and OS (P = .012, .006, and .005, respectively). In patients with stage I or II gastric cancer, first-degree family history was not associated with survival. However, it was associated with a reduced risk of recurrence or mortality in patients with stage III or IV gastric cancer. Compared with patients without a family history, the adjusted hazard ratios for those with a first-degree family history of gastric cancer were 0.49 (95% CI, 0.29 to 0.84) for DFS, 0.51 (95% CI, 0.30 to 0.87) for RFS, and 0.47 (95% CI, 0.26 to 0.84) for OS in patients with stage III or IV gastric cancer. CONCLUSION A first-degree family history of gastric cancer is associated with improved survival after curative-intent surgery in patients with stage III or IV gastric cancer.
