RESUMO

RESEARCH QUESTION: What are the real-life oncofertility practices in young women diagnosed with breast cancer? DESIGN: The FEERIC (FErtility, prEgnancy, contRaceptIon after breast Cancer in France) study is a web-based cohort study launched with the French collaborative research platform Seintinelles. The current work is based on the enrolment self-administered questionnaire of 517 patients with prior breast cancer diagnosis, free from relapse and aged 18 to 43 years at inclusion (from 12 March 2018 to 27 June 2019). RESULTS: Median age at breast cancer diagnosis was 33.6 years and 424 patients (82.0%) received chemotherapy. Overall, 236 (45.6%) patients were offered specialized oncofertility counselling, 181 patients underwent at least one fertility preservation procedure (FPP); 125 (24.2%) underwent one or more FPP with material preservation (oocytes n = 108, 20.9%; embryos n = 31, 6.0%; ovarian cryopreservation n = 6, 1.2%) and 78 patients received gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonists (15.1%). With a median follow-up of 26.9 months after the end of treatments, 133 pregnancies had occurred in 85 patients (16.4%), including 20 unplanned pregnancies (15.0%). Most of the pregnancies were natural conceptions (n = 113, 87.6%), while 16 (12.4%) required medical interventions. For the planned pregnancies, median time to the occurrence of an ongoing pregnancy was 3 months. Patients who had an unplanned pregnancy reported lower rates of information on the consequences of the treatments on fertility (P = 0.036) at diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS: Most of the patients were not offered proper specialized oncofertility counselling at the time of breast cancer diagnosis. Naturally conceived pregnancies after breast cancer were much more frequent than pregnancies resulting from the use of cryopreserved gametes. Adequate contraceptive counselling seems as important as information about fertility and might prevent unplanned pregnancies.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Uterine sarcomas are rare tumors with a poor prognosis. Their diagnosis is often incidental, following surgery. Our goal was to examine the early management strategies for uterine sarcomas, and to assess the impact of guideline adherence and expert center referral on both the management approaches and the clinical outcomes in patients with uterine sarcomas. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed medical records from patients with uterine sarcoma referred to the Institut Curie and registered in the database of the French NETSARC network. RESULTS: In total, 100 patients, with a median age of 54 years, were included in the analyses. On MRI scans (n = 36), all patients had at least two signs suggestive of malignancy, and 77.8 % had four or more signs. No preoperative biopsy was performed in 65.6 % of cases. Only 14.1 % of patients underwent initial surgery at an expert center. Surgery performed outside the network was significantly associated with morcellation (32.9 % vs. 0 %; p = 0.036), fewer negative margins (R0 margins 52.4 % vs. 100 %; p = 0.006), and poor adherence to surgical guidelines (28.3 vs. 72.7 %; p = 0.013). Multivariate analysis showed that non-adherence to surgical recommendations was not significantly associated with relapse-free survival (HR = 0.54; 95 % CI [0.21-1.38]), but was an independent predictor of poor overall survival (HR = 0.12; 95 % CI [0.03-0.52]; p = 0.005). CONCLUSION: Despite a high frequency of suspicious clinical and radiological signs, a large proportion of women undergoing sarcoma surgery are treated outside of expert networks. We provide guidelines, integrating the clinical context and radiological signs to encourage early referral to reference centers for sarcoma.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) represents up to 15% of all breast carcinomas. While the proportion of women with overweight and obesity increases globally, the impact of body mass index (BMI) at primary diagnosis on clinicopathological features of ILC and the prognosis of the patients has not been investigated yet. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We performed a multicentric retrospective study including patients diagnosed with non-metastatic pure ILC. The association of BMI at diagnosis with clinicopathological variables was assessed using linear or multinomial logistic regression. Univariable and multivariable survival analyses were performed to evaluate the association of BMI with disease-free survival (DFS), distant recurrence-free survival (DRFS), and overall survival (OS). RESULTS: The data of 2856 patients with ILC and available BMI at diagnosis were collected, of which 2570/2856 (90.0%) had oestrogen receptor (ER)-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER2) not amplified/overexpressed (ER+/HER2-) ILC. Of these 2570 patients, 80 were underweight (3.1%), 1410 were lean (54.9%), 712 were overweight (27.7%), and 368 were obese (14.3%). Older age at diagnosis, a higher tumour grade, a larger tumour size, a nodal involvement, and multifocality were associated with a higher BMI. In univariable models, higher BMI was associated with worse outcomes for all end-points (DFS: hazard ratio (HR) 1.21, 95CI 1.12-1.31, p value<0.01; DRFS: HR 1.25, 95CI 1.12-1.40, p value<0.01; OS: HR 1.25, 95CI 1.13-1.37, p value<0.01). This association was not statistically significant in multivariable analyses (DFS: HR 1.09, 95CI 0.99-1.20, p value 0.08; DRFS: HR 1.03, 95CI 0.89-1.20, p value 0.67; OS: HR 1.11, 95CI 0.99-1.24, p value 0.08), whereas grade, tumour size, and nodal involvement were still prognostic for all end-points. CONCLUSION: Worse prognostic factors such as higher grade, larger tumour size, and nodal involvement are associated with higher BMI in ER+/HER2- ILC, while there was no statistical evidence for an independent prognostic role for BMI. Therefore, we hypothesise that the effect of BMI on survival could be mediated through its association with these clinicopathological variables.

RESUMO

Breast cancer (BC) is the most commonly diagnosed type of cancer and the leading cause of cancer deaths in women. Smoking is the principal modifiable risk factor for cancers and has a negative influence on long-term survival. We conducted a retrospective study on consecutive BC survivors seen at follow-up consultations between 3 June and 30 October 2019 at Institut Curie, Paris, France. Smoking behaviors were evaluated prospectively via interviewer-administered questionnaires. The aim of this study was to describe smoking-related patient care at diagnosis and smoking cessation patterns in women with a history of BC. A total of 1234 patients were included in the study. Smoking status at diagnosis was missing from electronic health records in 32% of cases, including 13% of patients who smoke. Only 20% of the 197 patients currently smoking at diagnosis recalled having a discussion about smoking with a healthcare professional. Radiotherapists and surgeons were more likely to talk about complications than other practitioners. The main type of information provided was general advice to stop smoking (n = 110), followed by treatment complications (n = 48), while only five patients were referred to tobaccologists. Since diagnosis, 33% (n = 65) of the patients currently smoking had quit. Patients who quit had a lower alcohol consumption, but no other factor was associated with smoking cessation. The main motivation for tobacco withdrawal was the fear of BC relapse (63%). This study highlights room for improvement in the assessment of smoking behavior. Our data raise important perspectives for considering BC treatment and follow-up as a window of opportunity for smoking cessation.

RESUMO

Although an increasing number of young breast cancer (BC) patients have a pregnancy desire after BC, the time necessary to obtain a pregnancy after treatment and subsequent outcomes remain unknown. We aimed to determine the time to evolutive pregnancy in a cohort of BC survivors and subsequent obstetrical and neonatal outcomes. We analyzed BC patients treated at Institut Curie from 2005-2017, aged 18-43 years old (y.o.) at diagnosis having at least one subsequent pregnancy. 133 patients were included, representing 197 pregnancies. Mean age at BC diagnosis was 32.8 y.o. and at pregnancy beginning was 36.8 y.o. 71% pregnancies were planned, 18% unplanned and 86% spontaneous. 64% pregnancies resulted in live birth (n = 131). Median time from BC diagnosis to pregnancy beginning was 48 months and was significantly associated with endocrine therapy (p < 0.001). Median time to pregnancy was 4.3 months. Median time to evolutive pregnancy 5.6 months. In multivariate analysis, menstrual cycles before pregnancy remained significantly associated with time to pregnancy and endocrine therapy with time evolutive to pregnancy. None of the BC treatments (chemotherapy/endocrine therapy/trastuzumab) was significantly associated with obstetrical nor neonatal outcomes, that seemed comparable to global population. Our findings provide reassuring data for pregnancy counseling both in terms of delay and outcome.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Female breast cancer (BC) patients exposed to gonadotoxic chemotherapy are at risk of future infertility. There is evidence of disparities in the discussion of fertility preservation for these patients. The aim of the study was to identify factors influencing the discussion of fertility preservation (FP). MATERIAL AND METHODS: We analyzed consecutive BC patients treated by chemotherapy at Institut Curie from 2011-2017 and aged 18-43 years at BC diagnosis. The discussion of FP was classified in a binary manner (discussion/no discussion), based on mentions present in the patient's electronic health record (EHR) before the initiation of chemotherapy. The associations between FP discussion and the characteristics of patients/tumors and healthcare practitioners were investigated by logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: The median age of the 1357 patients included in the cohort was 38.7 years, and median tumor size was 30.3 mm. The distribution of BC subtypes was as follows: 702 luminal BCs (58%), 241 triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs) (20%), 193 HER2+/HR+ (16%) and 81 HER2+/HR- (6%). All patients received chemotherapy in a neoadjuvant (n=611, 45%) or adjuvant (n= 744, 55%) setting. A discussion of FP was mentioned for 447 patients (33%). Earlier age at diagnosis (discussion: 34.4 years versus no discussion: 40.5 years), nulliparity (discussion: 62% versus no discussion: 38%), and year of BC diagnosis were the patient characteristics significantly associated with the mention of FP discussion. Surgeons and female physicians were the most likely to mention FP during the consultation before the initiation of chemotherapy (discussion: 22% and 21%, respectively). The likelihood of FP discussion increased significantly over time, from 15% in 2011 to 45% in 2017. After multivariate analysis, FP discussion was significantly associated with younger age, number of children before BC diagnosis, physicians' gender and physicians' specialty. CONCLUSION: FP discussion rates are low and are influenced by patient and physician characteristics. There is therefore room for improvement in the promotion and systematization of FP discussion.
