Supporting Breast-Self-examination in Female Childhood Cancer Survivors A Secondary Analysis of a Behavioral Intervention Cheryl L. Cox, RN, PhD American Public Health Association November 7, 2007

Survivors’ Breast Cancer Risks Hodgkin’s survivors ( Taylor et al., 2006 ) –9.9% over 25 years of follow-up –12.2% with supradiaphragmatic irradiation Other childhood cancers (Kenney et al., 2004) –>30% develop secondary breast cancer –17% bone and soft-tissue sarcomas Mantle, abdominal, craniospinal irradiation Premature menopause Premature menopause Primary cancer diagnosis at an older age (10-16 years) Primary cancer diagnosis at an older age (10-16 years) Family history of breast CA or thyroid disease Family history of breast CA or thyroid disease

Mammography Scorecard for Childhood Cancer Survivors Lack of insurance Additional radiation exposure Less effective in dense pre-menopausal breast tissue Underutilization of preventive health care Mammography vs. BSE in detection of abnormal findings –30% vs. 63% in Hodgkin’s survivors (Wolden et al., 2000) –20% vs. 71% in women under 45 years of age (Coates et al., 2001) –BSE survival/locoregional control = mammography (women <40 years of age) (Diratzouian et al., 2005)

Factors Supporting or Negating BSE in Cancer Survivors Supporting BSE –valuing BSE as risk reducer –belief in early detection –knowledge –confidence in performing BSE –supportive partners/family members Negating BSE –fear of disease diagnosis –embarrassment –forgetfulness, too busy –African-American, Hispanic background –little interest/concern in future health issues –little interest/concern in future health issues

Data Source and Methods Prospective longitudinal (1 year), randomized trial of a multi- component educational intervention (Hudson et al., 2002; Cox et al., 2005, 2006) Sample –Criteria: age years, disease in remission for 2 years or more after treatment, cognitive ability to respond to questionnaire and intervention, English as primary language –Stratified by sex and age (12-15 yrs., yrs) –132 in treatment arm; 135 in standard care arm Used Health Belief Model as the conceptual base for changing knowledge, risk perceptions, and health behaviors in adolescent childhood cancer survivors

The Intervention Late effects screening based on treatment exposures Thorough clinical assessment Tailored risk counseling based on dx and treatment history Instruction in BSE –Provider exam to illustrate techniques –Return demonstration –Practice on latex models (normal, variant, abnormal)

“Then A Miracle Occurs Here”

Interaction Model of Client Health Behavior

IMCHB IMCHB Health Outcome Current Age Diagnosis Race Grade Diagnosis Parents’ Highest Grade Level Total Family Income Need to Change Want to Change Trouble to Stay Healthy Improving Health is Hard Perceived Susceptibility Perceived Seriousness Perceived Efficacy Disease/Treatment Knowledge Perceived Symptoms Worry Appearance Worry Physical Problems General Fears about Cancer Fear of Cancer Returning Tailored Risk Info BSE Skills BSE Frequency Information

Data Analysis T-test for paired samples Wilcoxon signed rank Mixed between/within subjects repeated measures ANOVA Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA)

TABLE 1. Patient Characteristics at the Time of Study Entry CharacteristicTotal Sample (N=149) nana % Race Caucasian African-American20 14 Hispanic3 2 School Grade >124 2 Mother’s Highest Grade Father’s Highest Grade Total Family Income ($) < 35, ,000 - >60, Primary Diagnosis Leukemia/Lymphoma87 59 Solid Tumor61 41 Median (Range) Age (Years) ( ) Time since Diagnosis (Years) ( ) a Variability in n for each category due to missing data

Results T 0 – T 1 ↑ BSE (p=<0.001) ↑ BSE (p=<0.001) ↓ Symptoms (p=0.039) ↓ Symptoms (p=0.039) ↓ General fears about cancer (p=0.039) ↓ General fears about cancer (p=0.039) ↑ Knowledge (p=0.026) ↑ Knowledge (p=0.026) ↑Perceptions of seriousness (p=0.042) ↑Perceptions of seriousness (p=0.042) ↑ Motivation (p=<0.001) ↑ Motivation (p=<0.001)

Predictors of Follow-up Predictors of Follow-up Baseline Predictors –Older age (p=<0.001) –Higher school grade (p=<0.001) –Perception of needing to change behavior (p=0.041) –Less concerned about appearance (p=0.021) –Trouble to stay healthy X {time} (p=0.036) –Perceived efficacy of behavior X {time} (p=0.034) Follow-up Predictors –Older age (p=<0.001) –Higher school grade (p=<0.001) –Trouble to stay healthy (p=0.021) –Mother’s highest grade X {time} (p=0.032)

ANCOVA Predictors of Follow-up BSE: Controlling for age, grade, baseline BSE Baseline BSE (p=<0.001) Baseline susceptibility X grade (p=0.032) Diagnosis of leukemia/lymphoma (p=0.021) Grade X fear cancer return (p=0.027) Grade X general cancer fears (p=0.040) Grade X mother’s education (p=0.040)

Female Childhood Cancer Greatest Risk –Young, newly pubescent –Fearful that cancer will return –Fearful about cancer in general –Unmotivated to change behavior –Diagnosis of bone or soft tissue sarcomas –More highly educated parents

“One Size Does NOT Fit All”!!! Elicit and examine fears/anxieties Use concrete modeling techniques with return demonstrations Offer personalized risk information Support autonomy, acknowledge difficulty of behavior change Specifically tailor information to –Background factors (age, SES, development) –Cognitive appraisal (knowledge, beliefs, risks) –Motivation (perceptions of needing/wanting to change) –Affect (fears, worries)

Study Limitations Measurement of BSE Single item variables Study powered on 2 genders

Conclusions The more “tailored” the intervention to the uniqueness of the individual patient, the greater the likelihood of positive health outcomes Cox, Cox et. al, Cox, Cox et. al, Motivation is increased when patients understand their personal risk, when they learn and feel competent in the health behaviors that can modify risk, and when worries and fears about their risks are not immobilizing ( Cox, 1982; 1984)
