Olutasidenib: a novel mutant IDH1 inhibitor for the treatment of relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.

INTRODUCTION: Recurrent mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (mIDH1) occur in about 7% to 14% of all cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The discovery of targetable mutations in AML, including IDH mutations, expanded the therapeutic landscape of AML and led to the development of targeted agents. Despite significant advances in current treatment options, remission and overall survival rates remain suboptimal. The IDH1 inhibitor, olutasidenib, demonstrated encouraging safety and clinical benefits as monotherapy in patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) mIDH1 AML. AREAS COVERED: This review outlines the olutasidenib drug profile and summarizes key safety and efficacy data, focusing on the 150 mg twice daily dose from the pivotal registrational cohort of the phase 2 trial that formed the basis for the US Food and Drug Administration approval of olutasidenib in patients with R/R AML with a susceptible IDH1 mutation. EXPERT OPINION: Olutasidenib offers patients with R/R mIDH1 AML a new treatment option, with improved complete remission and a longer duration of response than other targeted mIDH1 treatment options. Olutasidenib provided clinical benefit with a manageable safety profile. Additional analyses to further characterize the safety and efficacy of olutasidenib in frontline and R/R settings as monotherapy and as combination therapy are ongoing.

Olutasidenib is an oral prescription medication for patients diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with a specific mutation in the isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) gene. The US FDA approved olutasidenib at a dose of 150 mg twice a day for use as stand-alone (monotherapy) treatment in patients with IDH1-mutated AML whose disease has come back or has not improved after previous treatment(s). Olutasidenib is not traditional chemotherapy; it is a targeted treatment called an IDH1 inhibitor, which blocks IDH1 when it has been altered (mutated). These alterations happen in some patients, and when they do, the products of these alterations can lead to leukemia. By blocking mutated IDH1, the body can resume normal blood cell production and functioning. In studies, response to olutasidenib was measured by the number of people who went into remission. Complete remission (CR) means there is no sign of cancer and laboratory values are normal. Complete remission with partial hematologic recovery (CRh) means there is no sign of cancer, but some lab values do not reach normal levels. Thirty-five percent of people taking olutasidenib achieved CR or CRh and stayed in remission for 25.9 months. About 14% of patients who did not achieve remission also experienced some improvement in symptoms. The most common side effects in studies were nausea, feeling tired, fever, constipation, diarrhea, abnormal liver function tests, and changes in certain blood tests. Serious side effects included liver problems and differentiation syndrome, which is a potentially life-threatening situation that can occur when blood cells mature too quickly. Olutasidenib is also being studied in patients with IDH1 mutated AML who have never been treated before and in combination with a chemotherapy medication called azacitidine.

Treatment of chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia in patients randomized to dasatinib or imatinib after suboptimal responses to three months of imatinib therapy: final 5-year results from DASCERN.

Early molecular response (EMR) at 3 months is predictive of improved overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in the chronic phase (CML-CP). Although about one-third of patients treated with first-line imatinib do not achieve EMR, long-term OS and PFS are still observed in most patients. DASCERN (NCT01593254) is a prospective, phase IIb, randomized trial evaluating a switch to dasatinib in patients who have not achieved EMR after 3 months of treatment with first-line imatinib. Early analysis demonstrated an improved major molecular response (MMR) rate at 12 months with dasatinib versus imatinib (29% vs. 13%, P=0.005). Here, we report results from the final 5-year follow-up. In total, 174 patients were randomized to dasatinib and 86 to remain on imatinib. Forty-six (53%) patients who remained on imatinib but subsequently experienced failure were allowed to cross over to dasatinib per protocol. At a minimum follow-up of 60 months, the cumulative MMR rate was significantly higher in patients randomized to dasatinib versus imatinib (77% vs. 44%, P.

Asciminib monotherapy in patients with chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia with the T315I mutation after ≥1 prior tyrosine kinase inhibitor: 2-year follow-up results.

Asciminib targets the BCR::ABL1 myristoyl pocket, maintaining activity against BCR::ABL1T315I, which is resistant to most approved adenosine triphosphate-competitive tyrosine kinase inhibitors. We report updated phase I results (NCT02081378) assessing safety/tolerability and antileukemic activity of asciminib monotherapy 200 mg twice daily in 48 heavily pretreated patients with T315I-mutated chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML-CP; data cutoff: January 6, 2021). With 2 years' median exposure, 56.3% of patients continued receiving asciminib. Overall, 62.2% of evaluable patients achieved BCR::ABL1 ≤1% on the International Scale (IS); 47.6% and 81.3% of ponatinib-pretreated and -naive patients, respectively, achieved BCR::ABL1IS ≤1%. Of 45 evaluable patients, 48.9% achieved a major molecular response (MMR, BCR::ABL1IS ≤0.1%), including 34.6% and 68.4% of ponatinib-pretreated and -naive patients, respectively. MMR was maintained until data cutoff in 19 of 22 patients who achieved it. The most common grade ≥3 adverse events (AEs) included increased lipase level (18.8%) and thrombocytopenia (14.6%). Five (10.4%) patients experienced AEs leading to discontinuation, including 2 who discontinued asciminib and died due to COVID-19; these were the only deaths reported. These results show asciminib's effectiveness, including in almost 50% of ponatinib pretreated patients, and confirm its risk-benefit profile, supporting its use as a treatment option for T315I-mutated CML-CP.

Analyzing responses from 224 participants, our findings reveal that AI exposure, attitude toward AI, and AI accuracy perception significantly enhance brand trust, which in turn positively impacts purchasing decisions. Notably, flow experience acts as a mediator between brand trust and purchasing decisions. These insights underscore the critical role of AI in developing brand trust and influencing purchasing choices among Generation Z, offering valuable implications for marketers in an increasingly digital landscape.

Olutasidenib in post-venetoclax patients with mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (mIDH1) acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Olutasidenib, a potent, selective, oral, mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (mIDH1) inhibitor, is FDA-approved for relapsed/refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here we report efficacy and safety of olutasidenib in 18 patients with mIDH1 AML who were relapsed (10), refractory (6) or had complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi; 2) to a venetoclax combination. Of the 16 patients who were R/R, 4 (25%) achieved complete remission (CR), one (6.3%) achieved CR with partial hematologic recovery (CRh), and 7 (43.8%) achieved a composite complete remission (CRc). Median time to CRc was 1.9 months (range 1-2.8). As of data cutoff (18 June 2021), median duration of CRc was not reached (range, 1.2-NR, ongoing at 30.4+ months). Both patients with CRi at study entry achieved a CR. Safety was consistent with the overall profile of olutasidenib. Olutasidenib offers a valuable treatment option for patients with mIDH1 AML previously treated with venetoclax.

Effect of Inappropriate Treatment in Hospitalized Patients with Pyelonephritis Treated with Cefuroxime: A Cohort Study.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of inappropriate therapy in adult patients with community-acquired pyelonephritis caused by Escherichia coli receiving empirical treatment with cefuroxime during hospital stay and readmission. A retrospective cohort study was performed. Inappropriate treatment was considered treatment for a nonsusceptible isolate according to the results of the urine culture. Adjustment for confounding factors was performed with propensity score-derived inverse probability of treatment weighting. Between 2013 and 2020, 747 patients were included, 102 (13.7%) of whom received inappropriate therapy. Compared to appropriate therapy, inappropriate therapy was associated with a shorter length of stay in the adjusted analysis (Hazard Ratio = 0.34; 95% CI = 0.23-0.49). After 735 patients were discharged from the hospital, 66 were readmitted in the following 30 days. In comparison with appropriate therapy, inappropriate antimicrobial therapy was not related to readmission (OR 1.47; 95% CI = 0.35-2.79). Inappropriate therapy was not related to a longer hospital stay or readmission due to pyelonephritis after adjusting for confounders and covariates.

Integrative taxonomy of Anaporrhutum mundae sp. nov. (Trematoda: Gorgoderidae), a parasite of the Munda round ray Urotrygon munda (Urotrygonidae) in Costa Rica.

A new species of trematode of anaporrhutine gorgoderid, from the gill chambers of the Munda round ray Urotrygon munda in Costa Rica is described, based on an integrative taxonomic approach that includes the use of light and scanning electron microscopy, ITS2 and 28S rDNA sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis. Anaporrhutum mundae sp. nov. can be distinguished from congeneric species by a combination of morphological traits and particularly by having the genital pore opening at the level of the intestinal bifurcation. The new species also can be distinguished from all other species of Anaporrhutum, except A. euzeti Curran, Blend & Overstreet, 2003, by having fewer testicular follicles per testis. Anaporrhutum mundae sp. nov. also differs from A. euzeti in its forebody shape and by having different morphology and location of the vitellaria. The study of the tegumental surface of A. mundae sp. nov., as revealed by scanning electron microscopy, allowed detection of new morphological characters for a member of Anaporrhutinae that may be of taxonomic value. These are: a stylet cavity dorsal to the oral sucker with a large penetration gland opening on each side of the cavity and small penetration gland openings located ventral to the stylet cavity, arranged in a circle around the mouth. This represents the first record of an Anaporrhutum species from Costa Rica. Further, A. mundae sp. nov. represents the first parasite described or reported in this host.

Temporal trends in early-onset colorectal cancer incidence (2000-2020) by age group and five geographic regions in the state of Georgia.

The increase of early-onset colorectal cancer (CRC) among younger adults is a major public health concern. However, little is known about variations in CRC incidence across different age groups within small geographic areas in Georgia. We examined temporal trends of CRC incidence in Clayton, East Central, West Central, Northeast, and Southeast regions, by age groups. Annual incidence rates for CRC in individuals aged 15+ years during 2000-2020 in the five regions of Georgia were included. Temporal trends were examined within the five regions and stratified by age group. Joinpoint regression was employed to calculate the annual percent change and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Among 20,215 CRC diagnoses, CRC incidence declined over time for East Central (-2.33%; 95% CI, -3.03, -1.64), Northeast (-1.63%; 95% CI, -2.15, -1.04), Southeast (-1.63%; 95% CI, -2.30, -0.96), and West Central (-1.53%; 95% CI, -2.04, -1.03) Georgia. In the 15-44 age group, a notable increase of CRC incidence was found in Clayton, Northeast, and Southeast regions with a range of 2.2%-3.4%. However, adults aged 60+ years experienced a significant decrease in CRC incidence for most Georgia regions (all p-value <0.05), except for the Clayton region. In conclusion, CRC incidence declined during 2000-2020 in most Georgia regions. However, early-onset CRC is a major concern in Georgia as young adults (<45 years) living in Clayton, Northeast, and Southeast Georgia experienced significant annual increases in CRC incidence. Targeted CRC screening and awareness campaigns should be prioritized for adults <45 years and in the most impacted areas in Georgia.

Introducción: En años reciente se señalado que trastor-nos como la obesidad, la diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DMT-II) es-tán asociados a deterioro cognitivo. Una posibilidad para com-prender la relación entre la cognición y estos trastornos sonlos biomarcadores en sangre. Objetivo: El objetivo de esta investigación fue determinarla relación de la hemoglobina glucosilada (HbA1c) y lípidoscon el desempeño cognitivo de pacientes que están expues-tos varios factores de riesgo vascular en comparación con pa-cientes que tienen menos factores de riesgo. Metodología: Se llevó a cabo un muestreo no probabilís-tico por conveniencia. Se consideraron a adultos de ambossexos que tuvieran una edad mayor a 18 años y que conta-ran con algún factor de riesgo como un estilo de vida seden-tario y/o diagnóstico de DMT-II, hipertensión u obesidad. Losparticipantes (n=28) fueron evaluados mediante EvaluaciónCognitiva Montreal (MoCA) y tareas para evaluar memoria detrabajo verbal y visoespacial (Dspan y Mspan). Asimismo, sedeterminaron los niveles de hemoglobina glicosilada (HbA1c),colesterol (HDL y LDL) y triglicéridos (TG). Resultados: Se encontró que los niveles elevados deHbA1c y TG se asociaron con una menor puntuación en laprueba MoCA, mientras que los niveles elevados de HDL seasociaron con mejor desempeño cognitivo en dicha prueba.Al dividir a la muestra en función de la cantidad de factoresde riesgo vascular a los que han sido expuestos se encon-tró que a mayor presencia de factores de riesgo la relaciónde la HbA1c y TG con un menor desempeño cognitivo esmás fuerte. Conclusión: Se concluye que la relación entre biomarca-dores y funciones cerebrales es fuerte y dependiente de lacantidad de factores de riesgo vascular a los que están ex-puestos los pacientes.(AU)

Introduction: In recent years it has been reported thatdisorders such as obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)are associated with cognitive impairment. One possibility tounderstand the relationship between cognition and these dis-orders is blood biomarkers. Objective: The aim of this research was to determine therelationship of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and lipidswith cognitive performance in patients who are exposed tovarious vascular risk factors compared with patients who havefewer risk factors. Methodology: Non-probability convenience sampling wasperformed. Adults of both sexes who were older than 18 years of age and who had some risk factor such as a sedentarylifestyle and/or diagnosis of T2DM, hypertension, or obesitywere considered. Participants (n=28) were assessed byMontreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and tasks to evaluateverbal and visuospatial working memory (Dspan and Mspan).Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), cholesterol (HDL and LDL)and triglycerides (TG) levels were also determined. Results: It was found that elevated HbA1c and TG levelswere associated with a lower score on the MoCA test, whileelevated HDL levels were associated with better cognitive per-formance on the MoCA test. When the sample was divided ac-cording to the number of vascular risk factors to which theyhad been exposed, it was found that the greater the presenceof risk factors the stronger the relationship of HbA1c and TGwith poorer cognitive performance. Conclusion: We conclude that the relationship betweenbiomarkers and brain function is strong and dependent on thenumber of vascular risk factors to which patients are exposed.(AU)

Phenotypic and Genotypic Drug Resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains Isolated from HIV-Infected Patients from a Third-Level Public Hospital in Mexico.

BACKGROUND: Drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) is associated with higher mortality rates in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). In Mexico, the number of deaths due to TB among the HIV-positive population has tripled in recent years. METHODS: Ninety-three Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains isolated from the same number of HIV-infected patients treated in a public hospital in Mexico City were studied to determine the drug resistance to first- and second-line anti-TB drugs and to identify the mutations associated with the resistance. RESULTS: Of the 93 patients, 82.7% were new TB cases, 86% were male, and 73% had extrapulmonary TB. Most patients (94%) with a CD4 T-lymphocyte count <350 cells/mm3 were associated with extrapulmonary TB (p <0.0001), whilst most patients (78%) with a CD4 T-lymphocyte count >350 cells/mm3 were associated with pulmonary TB (p = 0.0011). Eighty-two strains were pan-susceptible, four mono-resistant, four poly-resistant, two multidrug-resistant, and one was extensively drug-resistant. In the rifampicin-resistant strains, rpoB S531L was the mutation most frequently identified, whereas the inhA C15T and katG S315T1 mutations were present in isoniazid-resistant strains. The extensively drug-resistant strain also contained the mutation gyrA D94A. CONCLUSIONS: These data highlight the need to promptly diagnose the drug resistance of M. tuberculosis among all HIV-infected patients by systematically offering access to first- and second-line drug susceptibility testing and to tailor the treatment regimen based on the resistance patterns to reduce the number of deaths in HIV-infected patients.

Effect of Cucurbita ficifolia Bouché on glutathione level and glycosylated hemoglobin percentage in a Mexican rural population with type 2 diabetes.

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL IMPORTANCE: Cucurbita ficifolia Bouché fruit is widely used in Mexican traditional medicine to treat type 2 diabetes (T2D) because it has been attributed with antioxidant and hypoglycemic properties in different experimental models and T2D patients. An imbalance in physiological glutathione (GSH) concentrations increases the susceptibility to developing complications associated with oxidative stress in T2D patients. AIM OF THE STUDY: To investigate the effect of C. ficifolia on the antioxidant properties of GSH, general health measurements, and biochemical parameters in a Mexican rural population, and to evaluate the changes in socio-affective scores of patients due to improvement in T2D. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-seven women diagnosed with T2D with poor glycemic control volunteered and were divided into two groups: C. ficifolia (0.5 g/kg of fresh pulp weight) with hypoglycemic pharmacotherapy, and another group with only hypoglycemic pharmacotherapy, for 12 weeks. We evaluated the effect of the fresh pulp of C. ficifolia on body mass index, blood pressure, glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, cholesterol, triglycerides, and GSH. Expanding the study, we evaluated the quality of life, anxiety, and depression scores before and after the intervention. RESULTS: Treatment with the fresh pulp of C. ficifolia for 12 weeks reduced glycosylated hemoglobin, similar to the hypoglycemic pharmacotherapy group, and significantly increased GSH concentrations. The patients' moods did not change despite increased GSH concentrations and improved T2D control. CONCLUSIONS: The increased GSH concentrations due to the consumption of fresh pulp of C. ficifolia could help to protect against oxidative stress and extend therapeutic benefits in addition to the usual hypoglycemic drugs in patients with T2D.

Dose modification dynamics of ponatinib in patients with chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML) from the PACE and OPTIC trials.

Ponatinib, the only approved all known-BCR::ABL1 inhibitor, is a third-generation tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) designed to inhibit BCR::ABL1 with or without any single resistance mutation, including T315I, and induced robust and durable responses at 45 mg/day in patients with CP-CML resistant to second-generation TKIs in the PACE trial. However, cardiovascular toxicities, including arterial occlusive events (AOEs), have emerged as treatment-related AEs within this class of TKIs. The OPTIC trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of ponatinib using a novel, response-based, dose-reduction strategy in patients with CP-CML whose disease is resistant to ≥2 TKIs or who harbor T315I. To assess the dose-response relationship and the effect on the safety of ponatinib, we examined the outcomes of patients with CP-CML enrolled in PACE and OPTIC who received 45 mg/day of ponatinib. A propensity score analysis was used to evaluate AOEs across both trials. Survival rates and median time to achieve ≤1% BCR::ABL1IS in OPTIC were similar or better than in PACE. The outcomes of patients with T315I mutations were robust in both trials. Patients in OPTIC had a lower exposure-adjusted incidence of AOEs compared with those in PACE. This analysis demonstrates that response-based dosing for ponatinib improves treatment tolerance and mitigates cardiovascular risk.

County-level colorectal cancer screening rates on colorectal cancer survival in the state of Georgia: Does county-level rurality matter?

PURPOSE: Investigating CRC screening rates and rurality at the county-level may explain disparities in CRC survival in Georgia. Although a few studies examined the relationship of CRC screening rates, rurality, and/or CRC outcomes, they either used an ecological study design or focused on the larger population. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective analysis utilizing data from the 2004-2010 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program. The 2013 United States Department of Agriculture rural-urban continuum codes and 2004-2010 National Cancer Institute small-area estimates for screening behaviors were used to identify county-level rurality and CRC screening rates. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazard regression were performed. RESULTS: Among 22,160 CRC patients, 5-year CRC survival rates were lower among CRC patients living in low screening areas in comparison with intermediate/high areas (69.1% vs. 71.6% /71.3%; p-value = 0.030). Patients living in rural high-screening areas also had lower survival rates compared to non-rural areas (68.2% vs. 71.8%; p-value = 0.009). Our multivariable analysis demonstrated that patients living in intermediate (HR, 0.91; 95% CI, 0.85-0.98) and high-screening (HR, 0.92; 95% CI, 0.85-0.99) areas were at 8%-9% reduced risk of CRC death. Further, non-rural CRC patients living in intermediate and high CRC screening areas were 9% (HR, 0.91; 95% CI, 0.83-0.99) and 10% (HR, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.82-0.99) less likely to die from CRC. CONCLUSIONS: Lower 5-year survival rates were observed in low screening and rural high-screening areas. Living in intermediate/high CRC screening areas was negatively associated with the risk of CRC death. Particularly, non-rural patients living in intermediate/high-screening areas were 8%-9% less likely to die from CRC. Targeted CRC screening resources should be prioritized for low screening and rural communities.

Arterio-occlusive events among patients with chronic myeloid leukemia on tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are standard therapy for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia. Each of these drugs has a specific profile of tyrosine kinases that they inhibit and, although all are clinically effective, they each have unique toxicity profiles. With the introduction of ponatinib, arterio-occlusive events were first noted and later found to occur with all TKIs to various extents. The recognition of this "class effect" was delayed considering ponatinib was introduced 10 years after the introduction of imatinib. The reasons for the delay in identification of this class effect are likely multifaceted. Importantly, there is an inconsistency in adverse event reporting criteria among the major clinical trials of the various TKIs, likely resulting in mixed reporting of arterio-occlusive events. Reporting events based on a frequency threshold, lack of sufficient follow-up, attempts at causality attribution, and the primary focus on molecular response may all have played an additional role. Considering the increasing rate of arterio-occlusive events over time, the termination of many trials after only 5 years prevents full assessment of the impact of these events. A comprehensive evaluation of TKI adverse effects using uniform Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities terms and comprehensive adjudication of these events may be helpful in better assessing the real risk for patients with each TKI. Future clinical trials should use a uniform and comprehensive approach to reporting adverse events without attempting to assign causality to the study drug.

Predictive models for health outcomes due to SARS-CoV-2, including the effect of vaccination: a systematic review.

BACKGROUND: The interaction between modelers and policymakers is becoming more common due to the increase in computing speed seen in recent decades. The recent pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus was no exception. Thus, this study aims to identify and assess epidemiological mathematical models of SARS-CoV-2 applied to real-world data, including immunization for coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19). METHODOLOGY: PubMed, JSTOR, medRxiv, LILACS, EconLit, and other databases were searched for studies employing epidemiological mathematical models of SARS-CoV-2 applied to real-world data. We summarized the information qualitatively, and each article included was assessed for bias risk using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) and PROBAST checklist tool. The PROSPERO registration number is CRD42022344542. FINDINGS: In total, 5646 articles were retrieved, of which 411 were included. Most of the information was published in 2021. The countries with the highest number of studies were the United States, Canada, China, and the United Kingdom; no studies were found in low-income countries. The SEIR model (susceptible, exposed, infectious, and recovered) was the most frequently used approach, followed by agent-based modeling. Moreover, the most commonly used software were R, Matlab, and Python, with the most recurring health outcomes being death and recovery. According to the JBI assessment, 61.4% of articles were considered to have a low risk of bias. INTERPRETATION: The utilization of mathematical models increased following the onset of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Stakeholders have begun to incorporate these analytical tools more extensively into public policy, enabling the construction of various scenarios for public health. This contribution adds value to informed decision-making. Therefore, understanding their advancements, strengths, and limitations is essential.

The interaction between social determinants of health and cervical cancer survival: A systematic review.

OBJECTIVE: This systematic review aimed to investigate what are the most relevant social determinants of health (SDH), how they are measured, how they interact among themselves and what is their impact on the outcomes of cervical cancer patients. METHODS: Search was performed in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane, and Google Scholar databases from January 2001 to September 2022. The protocol was registered at PROSPERO (CRD42022346854). We followed the PICOS strategy: Population- Patients treated for cervical cancer in the United States; Intervention - Any SDH; Comparison- None; Outcome measures- Cancer treatment outcomes related to the survival of the patients; Types of studies- Observational studies. Two reviewers extracted the data following the PRISMA guidelines. Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist for Analytical Cross-Sectional Studies was used for risk of bias (ROB) assessment. RESULTS: Twenty-four studies were included (22 had low and 2 had moderate ROB). Most manuscripts analyzed data from public registries (83.3%) and only one SDH (54.17%). The SDH category of Neighborhood was not included in any study. Although the SDH were measured differently across the studies, not being married, receiving treatment at a low-volume hospital, and having public insurance (Medicaid or Medicare) or not being insured was associated with shorter survival of cervical cancer patients in most studies. CONCLUSIONS: There is a deficit in the number of studies comprehensively assessing the impact of SDH on cervical cancer treatment-related outcomes. Marital status, hospital volume and health insurance status are potential predictors of worse outcome.
