RESUMEN

Ovarian transposition (OT) has been proposed as a protective measure against radiation-induced damage to ovarian function and fertility. Despite its historical use, limited research has focused on evaluating endocrine and exocrine ovarian function after OT performed in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) before or during puberty. The purpose of our study was to investigate the fertility, pubertal development, and ovarian function of women with a previous history of OT during childhood, adolescence or young adulthood. In an observational bicentric retrospective study, we included 32 young female cancer patients who underwent OT before the age of 26 between 1990 and 2015 at Lyon Léon Bérard Cancer Center or Nancy University Hospital. The mean age at the time of OT was 15.6 years with a cancer diagnosis at 15 ± 4.8 years. Among the 10 women attempting pregnancy post-treatment, 60% achieved successful pregnancies. After a mean follow-up of 9.6 ± 7 years, 74% (17 out of 23) of women recovered spontaneous menstrual cycles (seven out of eight evaluable women with OT before or during puberty). Notably, 35% of women who did not attempt pregnancy demonstrated adequate ovarian reserve. Ovarian reserve and function recovery were influenced by the specific chemotherapy received. Importantly, our findings suggest that OT's effectiveness on ovarian activity resumption does not significantly differ when performed before or during puberty compared to pubertal stages. This study contributes valuable insights into the long-term reproductive outcomes of young women undergoing OT, emphasizing its potential efficacy in preserving ovarian function and fertility across different developmental stages.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: We investigated time to pregnancy, efficacy and safety of fertility preservation, and assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) in women with early hormone receptor-positive breast cancer (BC) desiring future pregnancy. PATIENTS AND METHODS: POSITIVE is an international, single-arm, prospective trial, in which 518 women temporarily interrupted adjuvant endocrine therapy to attempt pregnancy. We evaluated menstruation recovery and factors associated with time to pregnancy and investigated if ART use was associated with achieving pregnancy. The cumulative incidence of BC-free interval (BCFI) events was estimated according to the use of ovarian stimulation at diagnosis. The median follow-up was 41 months. RESULTS: Two hundred seventy-three patients (53%) reported amenorrhea at enrollment, of whom 94% resumed menses within 12 months. Among 497 patients evaluable for pregnancy, 368 (74%) reported at least one pregnancy. Young age was the main factor associated with shorter time to pregnancy with cumulative incidences of pregnancy by 1 year of 63.5%, 54.3%, and 37.7% for patients age <35, 35-39, and 40-42 years, respectively. One hundred and seventy-nine patients (36%) had embryo/oocyte cryopreservation at diagnosis, of whom 68 reported embryo transfer after enrollment. Cryopreserved embryo transfer was the only ART associated with higher chance of pregnancy (odds ratio, 2.41 [95% CI, 1.75 to 4.95]). The cumulative incidence of BCFI events at 3 years was similar for women who underwent ovarian stimulation for cryopreservation at diagnosis, 9.7% (95% CI, 6.0 to 15.4), compared with those who did not, 8.7% (95% CI, 6.0 to 12.5). CONCLUSION: In POSITIVE, fertility preservation using ovarian stimulation was not associated with short-term detrimental impact on cancer prognosis. Pregnancy rates were highest among those who underwent embryo/oocyte cryopreservation followed by embryo transfer.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Breast cancer (BC) in women aged ≤40 years carrying germline pathogenetic variants (PVs) in BRCA1/2 genes is infrequent but often associated with aggressive features. Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-low-expressing BC has recently emerged as a novel therapeutic target but has not been characterized in this rare patient subset. METHODS: Women aged ≤40 years with newly diagnosed early-stage HER2-negative BC (HER2-0 and HER2-low) and germline BRCA1/2 PVs from 78 health care centers worldwide were retrospectively included. Chi-square test and Student t-test were used to describe variable distribution between HER2-0 and HER2-low. Associations with HER2-low status were assessed with logistic regression. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analysis were used to assess disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival. Statistical significance was considered for p ≤ .05. RESULTS: Of 3547 included patients, 32.3% had HER2-low BC, representing 46.3% of hormone receptor-positive and 21.3% of triple-negative (TN) tumors. HER2-low vs. HER2-0 BC were more often of grade 1/2 (p < .001), hormone receptor-positive (p < .001), and node-positive (p = .003). BRCA2 PVs were more often associated with HER2-low than BRCA1 PVs (p < .001). HER2-low versus HER2-0 showed better DFS (hazard ratio [HR], 0.86; 95% CI, 0.76-0.97) in the overall population and more favorable DFS (HR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.64-0.95) and overall survival (HR, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.46-0.93) in the TN subgroup. Luminal A-like tumors in HER2-low (p = .014) and TN and luminal A-like in HER2-0 (p = .019) showed the worst DFS. CONCLUSIONS: In young patients with HER2-negative BC and germline BRCA1/2 PVs, HER2-low disease was less frequent than expected and more frequently linked to BRCA2 PVs and associated with luminal-like disease. HER2-low status was associated with a modestly improved prognosis.

RESUMEN

This article describes some of the key prevention services in the Leon Berard Comprehensive Cancer Center (CLB) Lyon, France, which are based on clinical prevention services, outreach activities, and collaboration with professional and territorial health communities. In addition, research is embedded at all stages of the prevention continuum, from understanding cancer causes through to the implementation of prevention interventions during and after cancer. Health promotion activities in the community and dedicated outpatient primary cancer prevention services for individuals at increased risk have been implemented. The CLB's experience illustrates how prevention can be integrated into the comprehensive mission of cancer centers, and how in turn, the cancer centers may contribute to bridging the current fragmentation between cancer care and the different components of primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention. With increasing cancer incidence, the shift toward integrated prevention-centered cancer care is not only key for improving population health, but this may also provide a response to the shortage of hospital staff and overcrowding in cancer services, as well as offer opportunities to reduce carbon emissions from cancer care.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To improve the quality of care for patients with breast cancer, an analysis of the health-care pathway, considering feedback from both health-care practitioners (HCPs) and patients, is needed. METHODS: Between 2020 and 2022, we conducted a survey at French breast cancer centers and analyzed information from questionnaires completed by HCPs and patients. We collected information on center organization, diagnostic processes, treatment decisions and modalities, supportive care, patient advocacy groups, and work issues. RESULTS: Twenty-three breast cancer centers were included and questionnaires completed by 247 HCPs and 249 patients were analyzed. The centers closely followed the legal French framework for cancer treatments, which includes formal diagnostic announcements, multidisciplinary tumor boards, personalized treatment summaries, and supportive care access. HCPs and patients were satisfied with the time to diagnosis (≤ 2 weeks as evaluated by 75% of patients), time to surgery (mean 61 days), time between surgery and chemotherapy (mean 47 days), and time between surgery and radiotherapy (mean 81 days). Fertility preservation counseling for women under 40 years of age was systematically offered by 67% of the HCPs. The majority (67%) of the patients indicated that they had received a personalized treatment summary; the topics discussed included treatments (92%), tumor characteristics (84%), care pathways (79%), supportive care (52%), and breast reconstruction (33%). Among HCPs, 44% stated that reconstructive surgery was offered to all eligible patients and 57% and 45% indicated coordination between centers and primary care physicians for adverse effects management and access to supportive care should be improved, for chemotherapy and radiotherapy, respectively. Regarding patient advocacy groups, 34% of HCPs did not know whether patients had contact and only 23% of patients declared that they had such contact. For one-third of working patients, work issues were not discussed. Twenty-eight percent of patients claimed that they had faced difficulties for supportive care access. Among HCPs, 13% stated that a formal personalized survivorship treatment program was administered to almost all patients and 37% almost never introduced the program to their patients. Compliance to oral treatments was considered very good for 75-100% of patients by 62% of HCPs. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides an updated analysis of breast cancer care pathways in France. Overall, the initial processes of diagnosis, announcement, and treatment were swift and were in agreement with the best care standards. No barriers to accessing care were identified. Based on the study findings, we proposed several strategies to improve the quality of care for patients in supportive care, coordination with primary care physicians, reconstructive surgery, and fertility preservation access.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the literature and expose best evidence available regarding the benefit of pelvic examination for women with suspected endometriosis METHODS: the AGREE II and GRADE systems for grading scientific evidence. RESULTS: Endometriosis is characterized by the heterogeneity in its clinical presentation with many different symptoms reported by patients. In the literature, questioning for each symptom has a high sensitivity, reaching 76-98 %, but lacks specificity (20 - 58 %). The symptom-based approach is limited by its low specificity, the absence of external validation for most of the models developed and the inability to characterize the extent of the disease, which could have major implications in the decision - making process. The latest systematic review and meta-analysis included a total of 30 studies with 4,565 participants, compared the diagnostic performance of several modalities for endometriosis. Physical examination had a pooled sensitivity of 71 % and a specificity of 69 %, with an average diagnostic accuracy of 0.76. Overall, the value of pelvic examination is conferred by its high positive likehood ratio and specificity. Besides its diagnostic value, pelvic examination improves patients' management by allowing the identification of a possible myofascial syndrome as a differential diagnosis. It also increases the quality of the preoperative workup and influences the quality of surgical excision and decreases the time to diagnosis. CONCLUSION: Despite the lack of studies in the primary care context, pelvic examination (vaginal speculum and digital vaginal examination) increases the diagnostic value for suspected endometriosis in association with questioning for symptoms.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: Low grade serous ovarian carcinoma (LGSOC) accounts for 2.5% of all ovarian carcinoma more affects younger women than high grade serous ovarian carcinoma. Hysterectomy is performed routinely for LGSOC treatment, but fertility sparring surgery (FSS) is feasible for some early stages. Currently, there is no study about uterine involvement in LGSOC. We evaluate uterine involvement in LGSOC patients and aim to identify pre-operative predictive factors. METHODS: Retrospective observational study of LGSOC patients treated between January 2000 and May 2022 in the Hospices Civils de Lyon. All cases were viewed, reviewed or approved by an expert pathologist. RESULTS: Among 535 serous ovarian carcinomas, 26 were included. Most patients (73 %) had FIGO III disease. Median OS was 115 months and median PFS was 42 months. Uterine involvement was found in 58 % patients who underwent hysterectomy (14/24), serosal involvement was the most frequent type of involvement (n = 13, 54 %). Myometrial involvement was found in 8 patients (33 %) and was associated with serosal involvement (7/8). Among patients with a macroscopic disease-free uterus during exploratory laparoscopy, 31 % had a microscopic serosal involvement. None patient with presumed early stage (FIGO I) were upstaged due to uterine involvement (serosal or myometrial). In patients with stage FIGO IIII, 72 % of uterine involvement were found. Univariate analysis did not show any predictive factor of myometrial involvement. There was no difference on OS nor PFS between patients with or without myometrial involvement. CONCLUSIONS: In early stages LGSOC, FSS may be considered for selected patients. In advanced stages, hysterectomy should be performed routinely, since no predictive factor for uterine involvement were identified.

RESUMEN

Importance: Young women with breast cancer who have germline pathogenic variants in BRCA1 or BRCA2 face unique challenges regarding fertility. Previous studies demonstrating the feasibility and safety of pregnancy in breast cancer survivors included limited data regarding BRCA carriers. Objective: To investigate cumulative incidence of pregnancy and disease-free survival in young women who are BRCA carriers. Design, Setting, and Participants: International, multicenter, hospital-based, retrospective cohort study conducted at 78 participating centers worldwide. The study included female participants diagnosed with invasive breast cancer at age 40 years or younger between January 2000 and December 2020 carrying germline pathogenic variants in BRCA1 and/or BRCA2. Last delivery was October 7, 2022; last follow-up was February 20, 2023. Exposure: Pregnancy after breast cancer. Main Outcomes and Measures: Primary end points were cumulative incidence of pregnancy after breast cancer and disease-free survival. Secondary end points were breast cancer-specific survival, overall survival, pregnancy, and fetal and obstetric outcomes. Results: Of 4732 BRCA carriers included, 659 had at least 1 pregnancy after breast cancer and 4073 did not. Median age at diagnosis in the overall cohort was 35 years (IQR, 31-38 years). Cumulative incidence of pregnancy at 10 years was 22% (95% CI, 21%-24%), with a median time from breast cancer diagnosis to conception of 3.5 years (IQR, 2.2-5.3 years). Among the 659 patients who had a pregnancy, 45 (6.9%) and 63 (9.7%) had an induced abortion or a miscarriage, respectively. Of the 517 patients (79.7%) with a completed pregnancy, 406 (91.0%) delivered at term (≥37 weeks) and 54 (10.4%) had twins. Among the 470 infants born with known information on pregnancy complications, 4 (0.9%) had documented congenital anomalies. Median follow-up was 7.8 years (IQR, 4.5-12.6 years). No significant difference in disease-free survival was observed between patients with or without a pregnancy after breast cancer (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.99; 95% CI, 0.81-1.20). Patients who had a pregnancy had significantly better breast cancer-specific survival and overall survival. Conclusions and Relevance: In this global study, 1 in 5 young BRCA carriers conceived within 10 years after breast cancer diagnosis. Pregnancy following breast cancer in BRCA carriers was not associated with decreased disease-free survival. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03673306.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Prospective data on the risk of recurrence among women with hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer who temporarily discontinue endocrine therapy to attempt pregnancy are lacking. METHODS: We conducted a single-group trial in which we evaluated the temporary interruption of adjuvant endocrine therapy to attempt pregnancy in young women with previous breast cancer. Eligible women were 42 years of age or younger; had had stage I, II, or III disease; had received adjuvant endocrine therapy for 18 to 30 months; and desired pregnancy. The primary end point was the number of breast cancer events (defined as local, regional, or distant recurrence of invasive breast cancer or new contralateral invasive breast cancer) during follow-up. The primary analysis was planned to be performed after 1600 patient-years of follow-up. The prespecified safety threshold was the occurrence of 46 breast cancer events during this period. Breast cancer outcomes in this treatment-interruption group were compared with those in an external control cohort consisting of women who would have met the entry criteria for the current trial. RESULTS: Among 516 women, the median age was 37 years, the median time from breast cancer diagnosis to enrollment was 29 months, and 93.4% had stage I or II disease. Among 497 women who were followed for pregnancy status, 368 (74.0%) had at least one pregnancy and 317 (63.8%) had at least one live birth. In total, 365 babies were born. At 1638 patient-years of follow-up (median follow-up, 41 months), 44 patients had a breast cancer event, a result that did not exceed the safety threshold. The 3-year incidence of breast cancer events was 8.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 6.3 to 11.6) in the treatment-interruption group and 9.2% (95% CI, 7.6 to 10.8) in the control cohort. CONCLUSIONS: Among select women with previous hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer, temporary interruption of endocrine therapy to attempt pregnancy did not confer a greater short-term risk of breast cancer events, including distant recurrence, than that in the external control cohort. Further follow-up is critical to inform longer-term safety. (Funded by ETOP IBCSG Partners Foundation and others; POSITIVE ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT02308085.).

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To provide guidelines for the pelvic clinical exam in gynecology and obstetrics. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A multidisciplinary experts consensus committee of 45 experts was formed, including representatives of patients' associations and users of the health system. The entire guidelines process was conducted independently of any funding. The authors were advised to follow the rules of the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE®) system to guide assessment of quality of evidence. The potential drawbacks of making strong recommendations in the presence of low-quality evidence were emphasized. METHODS: The committee studied 40 questions within 4 fields for symptomatic or asymptomatic women (emergency conditions, gynecological consultation, gynecological diseases, obstetrics, and pregnancy). Each question was formulated in a PICO (Patients, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) format and the evidence profiles were produced. The literature review and recommendations were made according to the GRADE® methodology. RESULTS: The experts' synthesis work and the application of the GRADE method resulted in 27 recommendations. Among the formalized recommendations, 17 present a strong agreement, 7 a weak agreement and 3 an expert consensus agreement. Thirteen questions resulted in an absence of recommendation due to lack of evidence in the literature. CONCLUSIONS: The need to perform clinical examination in gynecological and obstetrics patients was specified in 27 pre-defined situations based on scientific evidence. More research is required to investigate the benefit in other cases.

RESUMEN

Even if each rare ovarian tumor (ROT) has a low incidence, the sum of all these entities represents almost the half of all ovarian neoplasms. Thus, development of dedicated clinical trial emerged as a prerequisite to improve their managements. Owing to the spreading of dedicated institutional networks and (supra)national collaborations, the number of clinical trials has increased the past few years, with different types of trials; while some focused on specific molecular features, others assessed innovative molecules. Furthermore, relevant randomized clinical trials were designed as a mean to position new treatment options. Currently, innovative molecular-driven trials, based on master protocol trials are emerging and may shed light towards the improvement of personalized medicine regarding ROT.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The present article is an English-language version of the French National Diagnostic and Care Protocol, a pragmatic tool to optimize and harmonize the diagnosis, care pathway, management and follow-up of lymphangioleiomyomatosis in France. METHODS: Practical recommendations were developed in accordance with the method for developing a National Diagnosis and Care Protocol for rare diseases of the Haute Autorité de Santé and following international guidelines and literature on lymphangioleiomyomatosis. It was developed by a multidisciplinary group, with the help of patient representatives and of RespiFIL, the rare disease network on respiratory diseases. RESULTS: Lymphangioleiomyomatosis is a rare lung disease characterised by a proliferation of smooth muscle cells that leads to the formation of multiple lung cysts. It occurs sporadically or as part of a genetic disease called tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). The document addresses multiple aspects of the disease, to guide the clinicians regarding when to suspect a diagnosis of lymphangioleiomyomatosis, what to do in case of recurrent pneumothorax or angiomyolipomas, what investigations are needed to make the diagnosis of lymphangioleiomyomatosis, what the diagnostic criteria are for lymphangioleiomyomatosis, what the principles of management are, and how follow-up can be organised. Recommendations are made regarding the use of pharmaceutical specialties and treatment other than medications. CONCLUSION: These recommendations are intended to guide the diagnosis and practical management of pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To compare the prevalence of contraception in breast cancer (BC) patients at risk of unintentional pregnancy (i.e. not currently pregnant or trying to get pregnant) and matched controls. STUDY DESIGN: The FEERIC study (Fertility, Pregnancy, Contraception after BC in France) is a prospective, multicenter case-control study, including localized BC patients aged 18-43 years, matched for age and parity to cancer-free volunteer controls in a 1:2 ratio. Data were collected through online questionnaires completed on the Seintinelles research platform. RESULTS: In a population of 1278 women at risk of unintentional pregnancy, the prevalence of contraception at study inclusion did not differ significantly between cases (340/431, 78.9%) and controls (666/847, 78.6%, p = 0.97). Contrarily, the contraceptive methods used were significantly different, with a higher proportion of copper IUD use in BC survivors (59.5% versus 25.0% in controls p < 0.001). For patients at risk of unintentional pregnancy, receiving information about chemotherapy-induced ovary damage at BC diagnosis (OR = 2.47 95%CI [ 1.39-4.37] and anti-HER2 treatment (OR = 2.46, 95% CI [ 1.14-6.16]) were significantly associated with the use of a contraception in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION: In this large French study, BC survivors had a prevalence of contraception use similar to that for matched controls, though almost one in five women at risk of unintentional pregnancy did not use contraception. Dedicated consultations at cancer care centers could further improve access to information and contraception counseling.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To study the impact of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) on the uterine volume of childhood acute leukemia (AL) survivor depending on age at HSCT and the type of myeloablative conditioning regimen. SETTING: Thirteen French University Teaching Hospitals. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. PATIENT(S): Eighty-eight women who underwent HSCT during childhood or adolescence for AL compared to a control group. INTERVENTION(S): A multicentric prospective national study compared the uterine volume in a cohort of childhood AL survivor adult women treated with HSCT, matched 1:1 to control women. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging scans included diffusion-weighted imaging sequences. Scans were centralized for a double-blinded reading by 2 radiologists. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Uterine volume, uterine body-to-cervix ratio, and apparent diffusion coefficient. RESULT(S): The mean age at HSCT was 9.1 ± 0.3 years with a mean follow-up duration of 16.4 ± 0.5 years. The cohort of 88 HSCT survivor women was composed of 2 subgroups depending on the myeloablative conditioning regimen received: an alkylating agent-based regimen group (n = 34) and a total body irradiation (TBI)-based regimen group (n = 54). Among the 88 women, 77 were considered as having a "correct hormonal balance" with estrogens supplied by hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) or because of a residual ovarian function. In the control group (n = 88), the mean uterine volume was 79.7 ± 3.3 mL. The uterine volume significantly decreased in all HSCT survivor women. After the alkylating agent-based regimen, the uterine volume was 45.3 ± 5.6 mL, corresponding to a significant volume reduction of 43.1% (28.8-57.4%) compared with that of the control group. After TBI, the uterine volume was 19.6 ± 1.9 mL, corresponding to a significant volume reduction of 75.3% (70.5%-80.2%) compared with that of the control group. After the alkylating agent-based regimen, the uterine volume dramatically decreased in women with POI without HRT compared with that in those with a correct hormonal balance (15.2 ± 2.6 vs. 49.3 ± 6 mL). In contrast, after TBI, the uterine volume was similar in all women, with no positive effect of hormonal impregnation on the uterine volume (16.3 ± 2.6 vs. 20.1 ± 2.2 mL, respectively). CONCLUSION(S): The uterine volume was diminished after HSCT, regardless of the conditioning regimen. The physiopathology needs to be further investigated: specific impact of a high dose of an alkylating agent; impact of hormone deprivation around puberty; poor compliance to HRT; or different myometrial impact of HRT compared with endogenous ovarian estrogens?

RESUMEN

In Euro-EWING99-R1 randomized trial, cyclophosphamide was shown to be noninferior to ifosfamide in the consolidation of standard-risk Ewing sarcoma (SR-EWS) after a common induction with VIDE (vincristine-ifosfamide-doxorubicin-etoposide). We present the results of the late effects analysis of VAC (vincristine-dactinomycin-cyclophoshamide) vs VAI (vincristine-dactinomycin-ifosfamide) conducted in Euro-EWING99-R1 French cohort. Of 267 French randomized patients, 204 were alive and free-of-relapse at 5-years including 172 with available long-term follow-up data concerning cardiac, renal and/or gonadal functions (sex-ratio M/F = 1.3, median age at diagnosis = 14 years): 84 randomized in VAC (median cumulative doses: cyclophosphamide = 9.7 g/m2 , ifosfamide = 59.4 g/m2 ) and 88 in VAI (ifosfamide = 97.1 g/m2 ). With a median follow-up of 10 years (range = 5-17), five late relapses and five second malignancies were recorded. The 10-year event-free survival among 5-year free-of-relapse survivors was similar between VAC and VAI (93% vs 95%, P = .63). We estimated the 10-year cumulative probabilities of cardiac and kidney toxicities at 4.4% (95% confidence interval [95% CI] = 1.1%-7.6%) and 34.8% (95% CI = 26.8%-42.0%), respectively. Cardiac toxicity cumulative probability was similar in both arms, whereas kidney toxicity was higher in VAI (at 10 years, 43.0% vs 25.7%, P = .02), resulting from significant difference in glomerular toxicity (31.1% vs 13.1%, P < .01). At 10 years, gonadal toxicity was observed in 27% and 28% of pubertal men and women, respectively, without significant difference between VAC and VAI. Kidney and gonadal toxicities represent major issues in Euro-EWING99-R1, with significantly higher risk of kidney toxicities with VAI, without significant gonadal toxicity reduction. These results support the need to limit cumulative doses of both alkylating agents and to use mixed regimen as in VIDE-VAC or VDC/IE (vincristine-doxorubicin-cyclophoshamide/ifosfamide-etoposide).

RESUMEN

Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) care and the life expectancy of affected patients have substantially improved in recent decades, leading to an increased number of patients being diagnosed with comorbidities, including cancers. Our objective was to characterize the epidemiology of cancers between 2006 and 2017 in CF patients with and without a lung transplant. Methods: Medical records of CF patients from 2006 to 2016 in the French CF Registry were linked to their corresponding claims data (SNDS). The annual prevalence and incidence rates of cancers were estimated from 2006 to 2017 in CF patients without lung transplant and in those with lung transplant after transplantation. Results: Of the 7,671 patients included in the French CF Registry, 6,187 patients (80.7%) were linked to the SNDS; among them, 1,006 (16.3%) received a lung transplant. The prevalence of any cancer increased between 2006 and 2017, from 0.3 to 1.0% and from 1.3 to 6.3% in non-transplanted and transplanted patients, respectively. When compared to the general population, the incidence of cancer was significantly higher in both non-transplanted [Standardized Incidence Ratio (SIR) = 2.57, 95%CI 2.05 to 3.17] and transplanted (SIR = 19.76, 95%CI 16.45 to 23.55) patients. The median time between transplant and the first cancer was 3.9 years. Among the 211 incident cancer cases, the most frequent malignant neoplasms were skin neoplasm (48 cases), lung cancers (31 cases), gastro-intestinal (24 cases), and hematologic cancers (17 cases). Conclusion: The overall burden of cancer in CF patients is high, particularly following lung transplantation. Therefore, specific follow-up, screening and cancer prevention for CF patients with transplants are necessary.

RESUMEN

Importance: As life span has increased among patients with cancer, survivorship has become an important component of breast cancer care. Among survivorship concerns, adequate contraceptive counseling is needed for premenopausal patients who are not seeking to become pregnant. Objective: To examine contraceptive use and chosen methods and to assess factors associated with contraceptive use over time in patients with early breast cancer. Design, Setting, and Participants: The Cancer Toxicity (CANTO) study was a multicenter nationwide prospective cohort study that enrolled women diagnosed with stage I to stage III breast cancer in France between March 2012 and December 2017. This analysis included 2900 premenopausal women who were 50 years of age or younger at diagnosis. Data were analyzed from July 2020 to July 2022. Exposures: Contraceptive use and method at diagnosis, shortly after the end of primary treatment (year 1), and during follow-up (year 2). Main Outcomes and Measures: Contraceptive use and methods were longitudinally evaluated at diagnosis, year 1, and year 2 after breast cancer diagnosis. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to assess the associations of clinical, socioeconomic, treatment, adverse effect, and patient-reported outcome variables with contraceptive use after diagnosis. Results: A total of 2900 patients (mean [SD] age, 43.1 [5.6] years) were included in the analysis; 2050 of 2894 women (70.8%) received chemotherapy, and 2305 of 2880 women (80.0%) received endocrine therapy. After diagnosis, 1182 of 2625 patients (45.0%) at year 1 and 1553 of 2363 patients (65.7%) at year 2 reported consulting with a gynecologist in the previous year. At diagnosis, 1487 of 2744 patients (54.2%) reported contraceptive use, with most patients (921 of 1470 women [62.7%]) using hormonal methods. The use of contraception significantly decreased after diagnosis (911 of 2342 patients [38.9%] at year 1 and 808 of 1961 patients [41.2%] at year 2; P < .001 for trend), when most patients (848 of 900 women [94.2%] at year 1 and 767 of 805 women [95.3%] at year 2) reported use of nonhormonal methods; these methods were primarily reversible mechanical approaches (copper intrauterine devices: 656 of 848 patients [77.4%] at year 1 and 577 of 767 patients [75.2%] at year 2; male condoms: 115 of 848 patients [13.6%] at year 1 and 110 of 767 patients [14.3%] at year 2). In the multivariable model, factors significantly associated with contraceptive use at year 1 included using contraception at diagnosis (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 4.02; 95% CI, 3.15-5.14), being younger (aOR, 1.09; 95% CI, 1.07-1.13 per decreasing year), having better sexual function (aOR, 1.13; 95% CI, 1.07-1.19 per 10-point increment), having children (aOR, 4.21; 95% CI, 1.80-9.86), reporting the presence of leukorrhea (aOR, 1.32; 95% CI, 1.03-1.70), receiving tamoxifen treatment alone (aOR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.01-1.92), and consulting with a gynecologist in the previous year (aOR, 1.29; 95% CI, 1.02-1.63). Similar factors were associated with contraceptive use at year 2, with the addition of partnered status (aOR, 1.61; 95% CI, 1.07-2.44). Conclusions and Relevance: Findings from this study support the importance of raising awareness and improving targeted contraceptive counseling for premenopausal women with early breast cancer.

RESUMEN

Objectives: To describe human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination practices in adolescent girls with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and to identify barriers to and motivators for vaccination. Methods: Cross-sectional, multicenter study on girls aged 9 to 19 years and their accompanying adults. The measurement criteria were the proportion of girls who were vaccinated against HPV, compliance with the vaccination schedule, factors associated with vaccination, and reasons for vaccination and non-vaccination through a self-administered questionnaire. Results: Seventy-one patients (16 with SLE and 55 with JIA) were included with a mean age of 13 years old (rank 11−18). According to parental questioning, 39% of patients were vaccinated against HPV or in progress (44% and 38% of SLE and JIA, respectively). This rate was 82% for the 22 patients ≥ 15 years of age. The vaccine was administered as often by a general practitioner (39%) as by a hospital pediatrician (also 39%). Two factors were significantly associated with vaccination: Older age (OR 53.68, 95% CI 5.85−429.29, p < 0.001) and previous hepatitis B vaccination (OR 4.97, 95% CI 1.03−24.01, p = 0.040). Recommendation of the vaccine by a health professional and fear of HPV-related diseases were the main facilitators. Lack of knowledge about the vaccine, lack of recommendation by a health professional, and fear of vaccine side effects were the main barriers. Conclusions: HPV vaccination coverage remains insufficient among patients with autoimmune disease. Education and awareness of health professionals about HPV infections are crucial elements in vaccine acceptance.
