RÉSUMÉ
PURPOSE: Patients with chemotherapy-induced ovarian function failure (CIOFF) may experience ovarian function recovery (OFR). Earlier, we showed that OFR during treatment with anastrozole impacted the prognosis of hormone receptor-positive (HR+) breast cancer (BC) patients with CIOFF. Here, we present the long-term follow-up results. METHODS: Postmenopausal women with HR+ BC who were 45-57 years of age and received chemotherapy were identified from the phase 3 DATA study (NCT00301457) on the extended use of anastrozole. Eligible patients were categorised into two groups: patients with CIOFF and definitely postmenopausal patients. Patients with CIOFF were monitored for OFR. Disease-free survival (DFS), distant recurrence-free survival (DRFS), and overall survival (OS) were compared between patients with OFR and patients without OFR using multivariable Cox regression analyses, including OFR as a time-dependent covariate. BC-specific mortality (BCSM) was compared between groups using the Fine and Gray method. RESULTS: This study included 656 patients: 395 patients with CIOFF and 261 definitely postmenopausal patients. OFR occurred in 39 (12%) of 329 patients with CIOFF who were monitored for OFR. The median follow-up time was 13.3 years. Patients with OFR experienced a deterioration in DFS (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.54; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.85-2.81), DRFS (HR = 1.51; 95% CI 0.73-3.11), OS (HR = 1.64; 95% CI 0.75-3.55), and BCSM (subdistribution HR = 1.98; 95% CI 0.84-4.63) when compared with patients without OFR. CONCLUSION: In patients with CIOFF, OFR during treatment with anastrozole was associated with a deterioration in BC outcomes. These findings underscore the importance of adequate ovarian function suppression in this subgroup of patients.
RÉSUMÉ
PURPOSE: The aim was to determine whether the real-world first-line progression-free survival (PFS) of patients diagnosed with de novo human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 positive (HER2+) advanced breast cancer (ABC) has improved since the introduction of pertuzumab in 2013. In addition to PFS, we aimed to determine differences in overall survival (OS) and the use of systemic and locoregional therapies. METHODS: Included were patients systemically treated for de novo HER2+ ABC in ten hospitals in 2008-2017 from the SONABRE Registry (NCT-03577197). First-line PFS and OS in 2013-2017 versus 2008-2012 was determined using Kaplan-Meier analyses and multivariable Cox proportional hazards modelling. First-given systemic therapy and the use of locoregional therapy within the first year following diagnosis were determined per period of diagnosis. RESULTS: Median and five-year PFS were 26.6 months and 24% in 2013-2017 (n = 85) versus 14.5 months and 10% in 2008-2012 (n = 81) (adjusted HR = 0.65, 95%CI:0.45-0.94). Median and five-year OS were 61.2 months and 51% in 2013-2017 versus 26.1 months and 28% in 2008-2012 (adjusted HR = 0.55, 95%CI:0.37-0.81). Of patients diagnosed in 2013-2017 versus 2008-2012, 84% versus 60% received HER2-targeted therapy and 59% versus 0% pertuzumab-based therapy as first-given therapy. Respectively, 27% and 23% of patients underwent locoregional breast surgery, and 6% and 7% surgery of a metastatic site during the first year following diagnosis. CONCLUSION: The prognosis of patients with de novo HER2 + ABC has improved considerably. Since 2013 one in four patients were alive and free from progression on first-given therapy for at least five years.

BACKGROUND: Differentiation between adenomas and carcinomas of the ampulla of Vater is crucial for therapy and prognosis. This was a systematic review of the literature on the accuracy of diagnostic modalities used to differentiate between benign and malignant ampullary tumours. METHODS: A literature search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, and the Cochrane Library. Studies were included if they reported diagnostic test accuracy information among benign and malignant ampullary tumours, and used pathological diagnosis as the reference standard. Risk of bias was assessed using Quality Assessment on Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS) 2 and QUADAS-C. RESULTS: Ten studies comprising 397 patients were included. Frequently studied modalities were (CT; 2 studies), endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS; 3 studies), intraductal ultrasonography (IDUS; 2 studies), and endoscopic forceps biopsy (3 studies). For CT, the reported sensitivity for detecting ampullary carcinoma was 44 and 95%, and the specificity 58 and 60%. For EUS, the sensitivity ranged from 63 to 89% and the specificity between 50 and 100%. A sensitivity of 88 and 100% was reported for IDUS, with a specificity of 75 and 93%. For forceps biopsy, the sensitivity ranged from 20 to 91%, and the specificity from 75 to 86%. The overall risk of bias was scored as moderate to poor. Data were insufficient for meta-analysis. CONCLUSION: To differentiate benign from malignant ampullary tumours, EUS and IDUS seem to be the best diagnostic modalities. Sufficient high-quality evidence, however, is lacking.

PURPOSE: This study determines the prognostic impact of body mass index (BMI) in patients with hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor-2-negative (HR+/HER2-) advanced (i.e., metastatic) breast cancer (ABC). METHODS: All patients with HR+/HER2- ABC who received endocrine therapy +-a cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor as first-given systemic therapy in 2007-2020 in the Netherlands were identified from the Southeast Netherlands Advanced Breast Cancer (SONABRE) registry (NCT03577197). Patients were categorised as underweight (BMI: < 18.5 kg/m2), normal weight (18.5-24.9 kg/m2), overweight (25.0-29.9 kg/m2), or obese (≥ 30.0 kg/m2). Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were compared between BMI classes using multivariable Cox regression analyses. RESULTS: This study included 1456 patients, of whom 35 (2%) were underweight, 580 (40%) normal weight, 479 (33%) overweight, and 362 (25%) obese. No differences in OS were observed between normal weight patients and respectively overweight (HR 0.99; 95% CI 0.85-1.16; p = 0.93) and obese patients (HR 1.04; 95% CI 0.88-1.24; p = 0.62). However, the OS of underweight patients (HR 1.45; 95% CI 0.97-2.15; p = 0.07) tended to be worse than the OS of normal weight patients. When compared with normal weight patients, the PFS was similar in underweight (HR 1.05; 95% CI 0.73-1.51; p = 0.81), overweight (HR 0.90; 95% CI 0.79-1.03; p = 0.14), and obese patients (HR 0.88; 95% CI 0.76-1.02; p = 0.10). CONCLUSION: In this study among 1456 patients with HR+/HER2- ABC, overweight and obesity were prevalent, whereas underweight was uncommon. When compared with normal weight, overweight and obesity were not associated with either OS or PFS. However, underweight seemed to be an adverse prognostic factor for OS.

INTRODUCTION: The benefits of routine follow-up after treatment of primary laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) remain disputed. Guidelines worldwide are consensus-based, and evidence for specific subgroups is lacking. This study evaluates routine LSCC follow-up including flexible endoscopy for detecting locoregional recurrence (LRR). METHODS: A retrospective cohort of 413 LSCC patients treated between 2006 and 2012 was analysed. The cumulative risk of LRR was calculated. Routine follow-up was evaluated by follow-up visit (routine or interval) at which LRR was detected, LRR treatment intent, and overall survival (OS). Analyses were stratified by early (I-II) and advanced (III-IV) TNM-stage. RESULTS: There were 263 (64 %) patients with early-stage and 132 (32 %) patients with advanced-stage LSCC. One-, two- and five-year cumulative risks for LRR after early-stage LSCC were 8 %, 18 %, and 26 %. For advanced-stage LSCC, cumulative risks of LRR were 20 %, 30 %, and 35 %. Of all 69 LRRs after early-stage LSCC, 72 % were routine-detected, 81 % were symptomatic, and 90 % received curative-intent treatment. Of all 45 LRRs following advanced-stage LSCC, 42 % were routine-detected, 84 % were symptomatic, and 62 % received curative-intent treatment. Five-year OS of early-stage LSCC with routine-detected LRR was 70 %, and 72 % for interval-detection (log-rank-p = 0.91). Five-year OS of advanced-stage LSCC with routine-detected LRR was 37 %, and 18 % for interval-detection (log-rank-p = 0.06). CONCLUSIONS: Routine follow-up for detecting asymptomatic recurrences seems redundant for early-stage LSCC. After advanced-stage LSCC, no asymptomatic recurrences were detected beyond one year posttreatment despite regular follow-up. Emphasis should be on other follow-up aspects, such as psychosocial support, especially after one year posttreatment.

BACKGROUND: This study aims to explore whether first-line pertuzumab use modifies the effect of prior use of (neo-) adjuvant trastuzumab on the PFS of first-line HER2-targeted therapy in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive advanced breast cancer (ABC). METHODS: Patients diagnosed with HER2-positive ABC in 2008 to 2018 in 9 Dutch hospitals were derived from the SONABRE Registry (NCT03577197). Patients diagnosed with de novo metastatic breast cancer were excluded. Patients receiving first-line trastuzumab-based therapy for ABC were selected and divided into trastuzumab naïve (n = 113) and trastuzumab pretreated (n = 112). Progression-free survival (PFS) was compared using multivariable Cox proportional hazard models. The interaction effect of first-line pertuzumab was tested using the likelihood-ratio test. RESULTS: The median follow-up time was 47 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 42-52). When comparing trastuzumab pretreated with trastuzumab naïve patients, the hazard ratio for first-line progression was 2.07 (CI:1.47-2.92). For trastuzumab pretreated patients who received first-line trastuzumab without pertuzumab, the hazard ratio for progression was 2.60 (95% CI:1.72-3.93), whereas for those who received first-line trastuzumab with pertuzumab the hazard ratio was 1.43 (95% CI: 0.81-2.52) (P interaction = .10). CONCLUSIONS: Prior use of trastuzumab as (neo-)adjuvant treatment had a negative impact on PFS of first-line HER2-targeted therapy outcomes. Adding pertuzumab to first-line trastuzumab-based therapy decreased the negative impact of prior (neo-)adjuvant trastuzumab use on first-line PFS. Further studies are needed to assess the effect of prior (neo-)adjuvant pertuzumab use on the outcomes of first-line pertuzumab-based therapy.

There is an ongoing clinical dilemma of how best to treat patients who present themselves with visceral crisis. The time needed to undo the state of visceral crisis is the most relevant outcome for this patient group. We describe four patients treated with CDK4/6 inhibitor plus endocrine therapy for HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer who presented themselves with a visceral crisis. Two of them are male and three of them had synchronous metastatic breast cancer. Two patients had lymphangitis carcinomatosis of the lungs, one extensive disease of the eye and one of the liver. Time to first clinical response was observed within a few weeks in three patients. For one patient a switch to chemotherapy was needed. These cases show that treatment with CDK4/6 inhibitors can achieve a rapid response in patients experiencing visceral crisis. We conclude that chemotherapy is not the sole possibility in visceral crisis, and that CDK4/6 inhibitors can be considered as well.

BACKGROUND: Obesity has been associated with an adverse prognosis and reduced efficacy of endocrine therapy in patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) breast cancer (BC). This study determines the prognostic and predictive effect of body mass index (BMI) on the disease-free survival (DFS) of postmenopausal HR+ BC patients. METHODS: Patients were identified from the DATA study (NCT00301457), a randomized controlled trial evaluating the efficacy of 6 vs 3 years of anastrozole after 2 to 3 years of adjuvant tamoxifen in postmenopausal women with HR+ BC. Patients were classified as normal weight (BMI: 18.5-24.9 kg/m2), overweight (25.0-29.9 kg/m2), or obese (≥30.0 kg/m2). The primary endpoint was DFS, evaluated from randomization (prognostic analyses) or 3 years after randomization onwards (predictive analyses; aDFS) using multivariable Cox regression analyses. P-values were 2-sided. RESULTS: This study included 678 normal weight, 712 overweight, and 391 obese patients. After a median follow-up of 13.1 years, overweight and obesity were identified as negative prognostic factors for DFS (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.16; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.97 to 1.38 and HR = 1.26; 95% CI = 1.03 to 1.54, respectively). The adverse prognostic effect of BMI was observed in women aged younger than 60 years, but not in women aged 60 years or older (P-interaction = .009). The effect of extended anastrozole on aDFS was similar in normal weight (HR = 1.00; 95% CI = 0.74 to 1.35), overweight (HR = 0.74; 95% CI = 0.56 to 0.98), and obese patients (HR = 0.97; 95% CI = 0.69 to 1.36) (P-interaction = .24). CONCLUSION: In this study among 1781 HR+ BC patients, overweight and obesity were adverse prognostic factors for DFS. BMI did not impact the efficacy of extended anastrozole.

Background: This study aims to evaluate whether changes in therapeutic strategies have improved survival of patients diagnosed with hormone receptor positive (HR+), HER2 negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer (ABC) in real-world. Methods: All 1950 patients systemically treated for HR+/HER2- ABC and diagnosed between 2008 and 2019 in eight hospitals were retrieved from the SONABRE Registry (NCT-03577197). Patients were categorized per three-year cohorts based on year of ABC diagnosis. Tests for trend were used to examine differences in baseline characteristics, Kaplan-Meier methods and Cox proportional hazards for survival analyses, and competing-risk methods for 3-year use of systemic therapy. Findings: Over time, patients were older (≥70 years, 37%, n = 169/456 in 2008-2010, 47%, n = 233/493 in 2017-2019, p = 0.004) and more often had multiple metastatic sites at ABC diagnosis (48%, n = 220/456 in 2008-2010, 56%, n = 275/493 in 2017-2019, p = 0.002). Among patients with metachronous metastases the prior exposure to (neo-) adjuvant therapies increased over time (chemotherapy, 38%, n = 138/362 in 2008-2010, 48%, n = 181/376 in 2017-2019, p = <0.001; endocrine therapy, 64%, n = 231/362 in 2008-2010, 72%, n = 271/376 in 2017-2019, p = <0.001). Overall survival significantly improved from median 31.1 months (95% CI:28.2-34.3) for patients diagnosed in 2008-2010 to 38.4 months (95% CI:34.0-41.1) in 2017-2019 (adjusted hazard ratio = 0.76, 95% CI:0.64-0.90; p = 0.001). Three-year use of CDK4/6 inhibitors increased from 0% for patients diagnosed in 2008-2010 to 54% for diagnosis in 2017-2019. Conversely, three-year use of chemotherapy was 50% versus 36%, respectively. Interpretation: Over time, patients diagnosed with HR+/HER2- ABC presented with less favourable patient characteristics. Nevertheless, we observed that overall survival of ABC increased between 2008 and 2019, with increased use of endocrine/targeted therapies.

RÉSUMÉ
Background: The DATA study evaluated the use of two different durations of anastrozole in patients with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer who were disease-free after 2-3 years of tamoxifen. We hereby present the follow-up analysis, which was performed after all patients reached a minimum follow-up of 10 years beyond treatment divergence. Methods: The open-label, randomised, phase 3 DATA study was performed in 79 hospitals in the Netherlands (ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00301457). Postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer who were disease-free after 2-3 years of adjuvant tamoxifen treatment were assigned to either 3 or 6 years of anastrozole (1 mg orally once a day). Randomisation (1:1) was stratified by hormone receptor status, nodal status, HER2 status, and prior tamoxifen duration. The primary outcome was adapted disease-free survival, defined as disease-free survival from 3 years after randomisation onwards. Adapted overall survival was assessed as a secondary outcome. Analyses were performed according to the intention-to-treat design. Findings: Between June 28, 2006, and August 10, 2009, 1912 patients were randomly assigned to 3 years (n = 955) or 6 years (n = 957) of anastrozole. Of these, 1660 patients were eligible and disease-free at 3 years after randomisation. The 10-year adapted disease-free survival was 69.2% (95% CI 55.8-72.3) in the 6-year group (n = 827) and 66.0% (95% CI 62.5-69.2) in the 3-year group (n = 833) (hazard ratio (HR) 0.86; 95% CI 0.72-1.01; p = 0.073). The 10-year adapted overall survival was 80.9% (95% CI 77.9-83.5) in the 6-year group and 79.2% (95% CI 76.2-81.9) in the 3-year group (HR 0.93; 95% CI 0.75-1.16; p = 0.53). Interpretation: Extended aromatase inhibition beyond 5 years of sequential endocrine therapy did not improve the adapted disease-free survival and adapted overall survival of postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. Funding: AstraZeneca.
RÉSUMÉ
PURPOSE: We assessed the systemic treatment choices and outcomes in patients diagnosed with human epidermal growth factor receptor-2-positive (HER2 +) advanced breast cancer (ABC), for the first four lines of systemic therapy and by hormone receptor (HR) status. METHODS: We identified 330 patients diagnosed with HER2 + ABC in 2013-2018 in the Southeast of The Netherlands, of whom 64% with HR + /HER2 + and 36% with HR-/HER2 + disease. Overall survival (OS) from start of therapy was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS: In real world, 95% of patients with HR + /HER2 + and 74% of patients with HR-/HER2 + disease received systemic therapy. In HR + /HER2 + disease, use of endocrine, chemo- and HER2-targeted therapy was , respectively, 64%, 46% and 60% in first line, and 39%, 64% and 75% in fourth line. In HR-/HER2 + disease, 91-96% of patients received chemotherapy and 77-91% HER2-targeted therapy, irrespective of line of therapy. In patients with HR + /HER2 + disease, median OS was 34.9 months (95%CI:25.8-44.0) for the first line and 12.8 months (95%CI:10.7-14.9) for the fourth line. In HR-/HER2 + disease, median OS was 39.9 months (95%CI:23.9-55.8) for the first line and 15.2 months (95%CI:10.9-19.5) for the fourth line. For patients treated with first-line pertuzumab, trastuzumab plus chemotherapy, median OS was not reached at 56.0 months in HR + /HER2 + disease and 48.4 months (95%CI:32.6-64.3) in HR-/HER2 + disease. CONCLUSION: Survival times for later lines of therapy are surprisingly long and justify the use of multiple lines of systemic therapy in well-selected patients with HER2 + ABC. Our real-world evidence adds valuable observations to the accumulating evidence that within HER2 + ABC, the HR status defines two distinct disease subtypes.

BACKGROUND: The major goal of routine follow-up in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) patients is the asymptomatic detection of new disease in order to improve survival. This study evaluated the effect of routine follow-up on overall survival (OS). METHODS: A retrospective cohort of 307 consecutive OPSCC patients treated with curative intent between 2006 and 2012 was analyzed. The effectiveness of routine follow-up was studied by comparing treatment-intent and OS in patients with asymptomatically versus symptomatically detected new disease. RESULTS: Three- and five-year risks of new disease were 29% (95% CI: 24-34) and 33% (95% CI: 27-39). Of the 81 patients with locoregional recurrence or second primary head and neck cancer, 8 (10%) were detected asymptomatically with no difference in OS with those detected with symptoms. CONCLUSIONS: Asymptomatic detection of new disease during routine visits was not associated with improved OS. The focus of follow-up should be on providing psychosocial care and rehabilitation.

OBJECTIVES: For patients with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), data about the impact of breast MRI at primary diagnosis on the incidence and characteristics of contralateral breast cancers are scarce. METHODS: We selected all 8486 women diagnosed with primary DCIS in the Netherlands in 2011-2015 from the Netherlands Cancer Registry. The synchronous and metachronous detection of contralateral DCIS (cDCIS) and contralateral invasive breast cancer (cIBC) was assessed for patients who received an MRI upon diagnosis (MRI group) and for an age-matched control group without MRI. RESULTS: Nineteen percent of patients received an MRI, of which 0.8% was diagnosed with synchronous cDCIS and 1.3% with synchronous cIBC not found by mammography. The 5-year cumulative incidence of synchronous plus metachronous cDCIS was higher for the MRI versus age-matched control group (2.0% versus 0.9%, p = 0.02) and similar for cIBC (3.5% versus 2.3%, p = 0.17). The increased incidence of cDCIS was observed in patients aged < 50 years (sHR = 4.22, 95% CI: 1.19-14.99), but not in patients aged 50-74 years (sHR = 0.89, 95% CI: 0.41-1.93). CONCLUSIONS: MRI at primary DCIS diagnosis detected additional synchronous cDCIS and cIBC, and was associated with a higher rate of metachronous cDCIS without decreasing the rate of metachronous cIBC. This finding was most evident in younger patients. KEY POINTS: ⢠Magnetic resonance imaging at primary diagnosis of ductal carcinoma in situ detected an additional synchronous breast lesion in 2.1% of patients. ⢠In patients aged younger than 50 years, the use of pre-operative MRI was associated with a fourfold increase in the incidence of a second contralateral DCIS without decreasing the incidence of metachronous invasive breast cancers up to 5 years after diagnosis. ⢠In patients aged over 50 years, the use of pre-operative MRI did not result in a difference in the incidence of a second contralateral DCIS or metachronous invasive breast cancer.

BACKGROUND: Gastroenteropancreatic (GEP) neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) comprise a group of rare malignant tumours with heterogeneous behaviour. This study aimed to assess long-term survival and prognostic factors associated with survival, in order to optimise counselling. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This population-based study included all GEP-NENs diagnosed between 1989 and 2016 in the Netherlands, selected from the Netherlands Cancer Registry. Overall survival (OS) and relative survival (RS) were calculated. A Cox Proportional Hazard analysis was used to identify prognostic factors (gender, age, tumour stage, location and treatment) for OS. Analyses were stratified by metastatic disease status and tumour grade. RESULTS: In total, 9697 patients were included. In grade 1, 2 and 3 non-metastatic GEP-NENs (N = 6544), 5-year OS and RS were 81% and 88%, 78% and 83%, and 26% and 30%, respectively. In grade 1 non-metastatic GEP-NENs 10-year OS and RS were 68% and 83%. In grade 1, 2 and 3 metastatic GEP-NENs (N = 3153), 5-year OS and RS rates were 47% and 52%, 38% and 41%, and 5% and 5%, respectively. The highest (relative) survival rates were found in appendicular and rectal NENs, demonstrating 10-year OS and RS of 87% and 93%, and 81% and 95%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: These long-term follow-up data demonstrate significant differences in survival for different grades, tumour stage, and primary origin of GEP-NENs, with the most favourable overall and RS rates in patients with non-metastatic grade 1 appendicular and rectal NENs. This study demonstrates unique long-term OS and RS rates using combined stratification by tumour site, grade and stage.

BACKGROUND: Periampullary adenocarcinoma consists of pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC), distal cholangiocarcinoma (DC), ampullary cancer (AC), and duodenal adenocarcinoma (DA). The aim of this study was to assess treatment modalities and overall survival by tumor origin. METHODS: Patients diagnosed with non-metastatic periampullary cancer in 2012-2018 were identified from the Netherlands Cancer Registry. OS was studied with Kaplan-Meier analysis and multivariable Cox regression analyses, stratified by origin. RESULTS: Among the 8758 patients included, 68% had PDAC, 13% DC, 12% AC, and 7% DA. Resection was performed in 35% of PDAC, 56% of DC, 70% of AC, and 59% of DA. Neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant therapy was administered in 22% of PDAC, 7% of DC, 7% of AC, and 12% of DA. Three-year OS was highest for AC (37%) and DA (34%), followed by DC (21%) and PDAC (11%). Adjuvant therapy was associated with improved OS among PDAC (HR = 0.62; 95% CI 0.55-0.69) and DC (HR = 0.69; 95% CI 0.48-0.98), but not AC (HR = 0.87; 95% CI 0.62-1.22) and DA (HR = 0.85; 95% CI 0.48-1.50). CONCLUSION: This retrospective study identified considerable differences in treatment modalities and OS between the four periampullary cancer origins in daily clinical practice. An improved OS after adjuvant chemotherapy could not be demonstrated in patients with AC and DA.

PURPOSE: The hormone receptor (HR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) are the main parameters in guiding systemic treatment choices in breast cancer, but can change during the disease course. This study aims to evaluate the biopsy rate and receptor subtype discordance rate in patients diagnosed with advanced breast cancer (ABC). METHODS: Patients diagnosed with ABC in seven hospitals in 2007-2018 were selected from the SOutheast Netherlands Advanced BREast cancer (SONABRE) registry. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors influencing biopsy and discordance rates. RESULTS: Overall, 60% of 2854 patients had a biopsy of a metastatic site at diagnosis. One of the factors associated with a reduced biopsy rate was the HR + /HER2 + primary tumor subtype (versus HR + /HER2- subtype: OR = 0.68; 95% CI: 0.51-0.90). Among the 748 patients with a biopsy of the primary tumor and a metastatic site, the overall receptor discordance rate was 18%. This was the highest for the HR + /HER2 + primary tumor subtype, with 55%. In 624 patients with metachronous metastases, the HR + /HER2 + subtype remained the only predictor significantly related to a higher discordance rate, irrespective of prior (neo-)adjuvant therapies (OR = 7.49; 95% CI: 3.69-15.20). CONCLUSION: The HR + /HER2 + subtype has the highest discordance rate, but the lowest biopsy rate of all four receptor subtypes. Prior systemic therapy was not independently related to subtype discordance. This study highlights the importance of obtaining a biopsy of metastatic disease, especially in the HR + /HER2 + subtype to determine the most optimal treatment strategy.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to provide an overview of published mathematical estimation approaches to quantify the duration of the preclinical detectable phase (PCDP) using data from cancer screening programs. METHODS: A systematic search of PubMed and Embase was conducted for original studies presenting mathematical approaches using screening data. The studies were categorized by mathematical approach, data source, and assumptions made. Furthermore, estimates of the duration of the PCDP of breast and colorectal cancer were reported per study population. RESULTS: From 689 publications, 34 estimation methods were included. Five distinct types of mathematical estimation approaches were identified: prevalence-to-incidence ratio (n=8), maximum likelihood estimation (n=16), expectation-maximization algorithm (n=1), regression of observed on expected (n=6) and Bayesian Markov-chain Monte Carlo estimation (n=5). Fourteen studies used data from both screened and unscreened populations, whereas 19 studies included only information from a screened population. Estimates of the duration of the PCDP varied between 2 years and 7 years for breast cancer in the Health Insurance Plan study (annual mammography and clinical breast examinations in women aged 40-64 years) and 2 years and 5 years for colorectal cancer in the Calvados study (a guaiac fecal occult blood test in men and women aged 45-74 years). CONCLUSIONS: Different types of mathematical approaches lead to different estimates of the PCDP duration. We advise researchers to use the method that matches the data available, and to use multiple methods for estimation when possible, since no method is perfect.

The added value of capecitabine to adjuvant gemcitabine monotherapy (GEM) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) was shown by the ESPAC-4 trial. Real-world data on the effectiveness of gemcitabine plus capecitabine (GEMCAP), in patients ineligible for mFOLFIRINOX, are lacking. Our study assessed whether adjuvant GEMCAP is superior to GEM in a nationwide cohort. Patients treated with adjuvant GEMCAP or GEM after resection of PDAC without preoperative treatment were identified from The Netherlands Cancer Registry (2015-2019). The primary outcome was overall survival (OS), measured from start of chemotherapy. The treatment effect of GEMCAP vs GEM was adjusted for sex, age, performance status, tumor size, lymph node involvement, resection margin and tumor differentiation in a multivariable Cox regression analysis. Secondary outcome was the percentage of patients who completed the planned six adjuvant treatment cycles. Overall, 778 patients were included, of whom 21.1% received GEMCAP and 78.9% received GEM. The median OS was 31.4 months (95% CI 26.8-40.7) for GEMCAP and 22.1 months (95% CI 20.6-25.0) for GEM (HR: 0.71, 95% CI 0.56-0.90; logrank P = .004). After adjustment for prognostic factors, survival remained superior for patients treated with GEMCAP (HR: 0.73, 95% CI 0.57-0.92, logrank P = .009). Survival with GEMCAP was superior to GEM in most subgroups of prognostic factors. Adjuvant chemotherapy was completed in 69.5% of the patients treated with GEMCAP and 62.7% with GEM (P = .11). In this nationwide cohort of patients with PDAC, adjuvant GEMCAP was associated with superior survival as compared to GEM monotherapy and number of cycles was similar.

In August 2017, cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors combined with endocrine therapy have been reimbursed in the Netherlands for patients with hormone receptor positive (HR+), HER2 negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer (ABC). This study evaluates the implementation of CDK4/6 inhibitors and changes in treatment choices in the Netherlands. All patients diagnosed with HR+/HER2- ABC in 2009 to 2018 in seven hospitals were selected from the Southeast Netherlands Advanced Breast cancer (SONABRE) registry. The 2-year cumulative use of CDK4/6 inhibitors since reimbursement date (August 2017) was assessed using competing-risk methodology in two cohorts. The first cohort included patients with ABC diagnosis between August 2017 and December 2018. The second cohort included patients with ABC diagnosis between 2009 and August 2017, and still alive on August 1, 2017. In addition, treatment choices in the first three lines of therapy in calendar years 2009 to 2018 were evaluated for the total study population. Among patients diagnosed since August 2017 (n = 214), 50% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 43-57) received CDK4/6 inhibitors within 2 years beyond diagnosis. Of eligible patients diagnosed before August 2017 (n = 417), 31% (95% CI = 27-36) received CDK4/6 inhibitors within 2 years following reimbursement. Another 20% of both cohorts are still CDK4/6 inhibitor naïve and on first-line therapy. The use of chemotherapy decreased in first two lines of therapy between 2009 and 2018 (first-line: 29%-13%; second-line: 26%-19%). The implementation rate of CDK4/6 inhibitors since reimbursement is currently 50% within 2 years beyond diagnosis and is expected to increase further. The implementation of targeted therapy decreased the use of chemotherapy as first-line therapy.
