Significant excesses for all second cancers were observed among patients with leukemia (34%), Hodgkin's disease (70%), non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (25%), and multiple myeloma (24%). In general, the risk of second cancers was greater in males than in females, even for cohorts not showing an excess of surveillance-related prostate cancer. Among patients with leukemia, significant excesses of cancers of the lung, kidney/ureter, and prostate were noted; cutaneous melanoma was elevated only in males. These excesses did not persist in the small number of long-term survivors. Possible etiologic factors included tobacco smoking for lung and kidney cancers, medical surveillance artifact for prostate cancer, and immunosuppression for malignant melanoma and lung cancer. The large number and good prognoses of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia strongly influenced the pattern of second cancers when all leukemias were analyzed together; no evidence was found for an increased risk of second cancer in patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia. A disproportionate number of subsequent cancers, particularly those of the kidney and ureter, were diagnosed incidentally at autopsy. Patients with Hodgkin's disease displayed significant excesses of cancers of the buccal cavity and pharynx, lung, female breast, and thyroid. The latter 3 sites remained significantly elevated in long-term survivors (10 yr or more postdiagnosis), so that radiation therapy may have contributed to their development. Among persons with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, cancers of the stomach, lung, brain, and connective tissue occurred excessively. The first 3 sites, plus cancers of the urinary bladder, remained elevated among long-term survivors. The brain cancer excess, not previously reported, may represent misclassification of central nervous system lymphoma. The risk of gastric cancer is reminiscent of similar findings in patients with both acquired and genetically determined immunodeficiency disorders. The alkylating agent, cyclophosphamide, used extensively in the treatment of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, is known to cause bladder cancer in man.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)</p>","PeriodicalId":76196,"journal":{"name":"National Cancer Institute monograph","volume":"68 ","pages":"191-217"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1985-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"15199026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cancer of the corpus uteri occurred more commonly in the western United States than elsewhere in the Pacific Basin.

{"title":"Second cancer following cancer of the male genital system in Denmark, 1943-80.","authors":"A Osterlind,&nbsp;M Rørth,&nbsp;A Prener","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>The incidence of second primary cancers was investigated among 19,886 patients with prostate cancer. The analysis disclosed 594 new cancers, which was significantly less than the expected 1,176 cases (relative risk = 0.51). Deficits were observed for most sites but were only significant for cancers of the lip, lung, and gastrointestinal organs. The average age at diagnosis of prostate cancer was 72 years. It is likely that the apparent deficit in the incidence of second neoplasms resulted from less diagnostic aggressiveness in elderly patients with cancer compared with younger patients. The risk of developing a second primary cancer was also investigated in 4,290 men with testis cancer reported to the Danish Cancer Registry between 1943 and 1980. A significant 29% excess of second cancers was found (174 observed vs. 135 expected). A bimodal distribution of risk over time was found with a 67% excess seen among patients followed for 1-4 years that was mainly due to increased incidence of acute nonlymphocytic leukemia and malignant lymphomas. Among patients surviving 10 or more years, the overall excess of 32% observed was mainly due to cancers of the gastrointestinal tract and the urinary bladder. As part of the initial treatment for testis cancer, 82% of the patients received radiotherapy. Chemotherapy was rarely given before 1975 and then mostly to patients with a poor prognosis. Late effects of radiotherapy conceivably could account for some of the excess of second hematologic as well as solid neoplasms.</p>","PeriodicalId":76196,"journal":{"name":"National Cancer Institute monograph","volume":"68 ","pages":"341-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1985-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"15198873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Second cancer following cancer of the breast in Connecticut, 1935-82.","authors":"E B Harvey,&nbsp;L A Brinton","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Among 41,109 women diagnosed with breast cancer between 1935 and 1982 in Connecticut, 3,984 developed a second cancer, whereas 2,426 were expected [relative risk (RR) = 1.64; 95% CI = 1.6-1.7]. This increased risk persisted for 30 years and was highest in women under 55 years of age at the time of breast cancer diagnosis. Second primary breast cancers (RR = 3.0) accounted for almost one-half of all new neoplasms. However, if subsequent breast cancers were excluded, the risk for all other second cancers was only 1.15 (95% CI = 1.10-1.20), and no excess risk was seen among women over age 55 at initial breast cancer. Significant risks were found for cancers of the ovary (RR = 1.7) and uterine corpus (RR = 1.4), possibly linked with shared reproductive factors such as nulliparity or late age at menopause. Malignant melanoma (RR = 1.5), thyroid cancer (RR = 1.6), and colon cancer (RR = 1.2) were also significantly elevated; possible shared risk factors remain to be elucidated. Significant deficits of multiple myeloma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia were noted. Women who received initial radiotherapy compared with those who did not were at slightly higher risk of developing a second cancer, most notably acute nonlymphocytic leukemia, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and cancers of the esophagus, kidney, and connective tissue, although the nature of the associations was not always clear. Some of the soft tissue sarcomas were lymphangiosarcomas of the arm, a consequence of the lymphedema that may complicate radical mastectomy (Stewart-Treves syndrome). Women treated with radiation were at higher risk of developing a second breast neoplasm (RR = 3.9) than nonirradiated women (RR = 2.8). Further investigation should focus on the mechanisms underlying the relationships between breast, genital tract, and colon cancers, and on the effects of treatment modalities on the risk of subsequent neoplasms.</p>","PeriodicalId":76196,"journal":{"name":"National Cancer Institute monograph","volume":"68 ","pages":"99-112"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1985-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"15199868","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
