1
Surveillance and screening for new neoplasms in adult survivors of childhood cancer A report from the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study (CCSS) Paul Nathan MD, MSc The Hospital for Sick Children Toronto, Canada
2
5-year cancer survival in children ~80% Over 325,000 childhood cancer survivors alive in United States Over 40% of survivors will develop a severe or life threatening late effect of therapy Background The childhood cancer survivor population
3
30-year cumulative incidence of SMN = 9.3% 30-year cumulative incidence of non-melanoma skin cancer = 6.9% Leading cause of death in 20+ year survivors Standardized incidence ratio = 9.0 Standardized mortality ratio = 15.2 Meadows et al. JCO, 2009; Mertens et al. JNCI, 2008 SMN in the CCSS cohort Second malignant neoplasms (SMN) in childhood cancer survivors

1.To assess adherence to published cancer surveillance guidelines by survivors at high risk for breast, colorectal or skin cancer as a result of their therapy 2.To compare non-high risk survivors’ adherence to national screening guidelines for breast, colorectal and cervical cancer with the general population Study Aims

Cancer Diagnosis in 8,318 Survivors
11
Specific Aim 1 Adherence to published cancer surveillance guidelines by survivors at high risk for breast, colorectal or skin cancer
13
Risk Definitions and Recommended Surveillance COLORECTALBREASTSKIN HIGH-RISK >30 Gy to abdomen, pelvis or spine N=794 Female, >20 Gy to breast N=521 Any radiation therapy N=4,833 RECOMMENDED SURVEILLANCE Colonoscopy every 5 years starting at age 35 Annual mammogram starting at later of 8 years after radiation or age 25 Annual dermatologic exam of irradiated areas
14
Compliance with Recommended Surveillance Tests
15
Predictors of Adherence Multivariable Logistic Regression Models Covariates Sex Race/ethnicity Age at diagnosis and interview Employment, education, insurance Chronic disease, mental health, physical impairment, concern about future health Survivor or doctor has cancer treatment summary Medical care in last 2 years, care at a cancer center
16
Significant Predictors of Adherence Multivariable Logistic Regression Models Colonoscopy Older age at interview RR=1.08 (1.00-1.17) Mammogram Older age at interview RR=1.09 (1.04-1.13) Care at cancer center RR=1.70 (1.04-2.76) Skin exam Non-white RR=0.63 (0.42-0.95) Care at cancer center RR=1.55 (1.22-1.96) Survivor has treatment summary RR=1.30 (1.07-1.58)
17
Specific Aim 2 Comparison of “non-high risk” survivors vs. general population on adherence to national screening guidelines for breast, colorectal and cervical cancer
18
US Preventive Services Task Force Cancer Screening Recommendations Breast Screening mammography every 1-2 years for women aged 40 and older Colorectal Colonoscopy at intervals of 10 years between ages of 50-75 years* Cervix Pap smear beginning within 3 years of onset of sexual activity or age 21 (whichever comes first) and screening at least every 3 years * OR annual fecal occult blood testing OR sigmoidoscopy every 5 years combined with fecal occult blood testing every 3 years
19
US Preventive Services Task Force Cancer Screening Recommendations BreastColonCervix RR=1.29RR=0.97RR=1.17 95% CI, 1.12-1.4895% CI, 0.31-3.0095% CI, 1.14-1.20 P<0.001P=0.95P=<0.001 Compliance with screening Survivor Gen. Pop.
20
Significant Predictors of Adherence Multivariable Logistic Regression Models Breast None Colon Too few survivors over 50 years to analyse in detail Emerging evidence of increased GI malignancies in survivor cohort Cervix Only being “married or living as married” predicted PAP smear compliance (RR 1.17, 1.03-1.34)
21
Conclusions (1) Adherence to Guidelines for Cancer Survivors Rates of colonoscopy, mammography and skin exams in high-risk patients are very low. Care at a cancer center modestly increases surveillance for breast and skin cancer. Patients and their physicians need to be educated about recommended surveillance.
22
Conclusions (2) Adherence to National Screening Guidelines Survivors Cancer survivors are more likely to undergo mammograms and PAP smears than general population. BUT: Compliance rates are very low for colonoscopy and only moderate for mammography. Health care providers must take opportunity to promote early cancer detection strategies in survivors.
23
Study Considerations 1.Self-report data 2.CCSS cohort is a select group – study may overestimate care received 3.Cohort 1970-1986 4.Did not assess all screening/surveillance modalities (e.g. breast MRI, fecal occult blood)

A Resource for Research The Childhood Cancer Survivor Study is an NCI-funded resource to promote and facilitate research among long-term survivors of cancer diagnosed during childhood and adolescence.
