Second primary cancer after female breast cancer: Familial risks and cause of death

Abstract: BackgroundWith continuous increases in survival rates following breast cancer (BC) diagnosis, the challenge of multiple primary cancers has become an issue. The data on familial risk of SPCs after BC diagnosis and the related mortality in BC patients are scarce.MethodsA total of 87 752 female BC patients were followed for SPC diagnoses and records of death. Relative risks (RRs) of SPC in BC patients who had first‐degree relatives (parents or siblings) affected by the same cancer were compared to the patients w… Show more

“…Breast cancer (BC) is a complex multigene disease and developed from the genetic defect or acquired DNA damage, and involves multiple cross-talks pathway, such as triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is more likely to carry BRCA1/2 mutations, with high metastasis, recurrence rates and shorter overall survival rates 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 . According to the statistics of international cancer research institute, breast cancer has become the highest incidence of cancer among women in the world 5 . Currently, the main treatment for BC patients is chemotherapy with small-molecule drugs in addition to radiotherapy and surgery 6 , 7 , 8 .…”

“…A cohort of 2,116,163 patients was identified in a study, 170,865 of whom (8.1%) developed a second primary malignancy, and more than 50% of the patients with 2 incident cancers died of their secondary malignancy (4). Another study showed that 17.0% (14,952/87,752) of breast cancer patients developed second primary cancer after a median follow-up of 5 years (5). Due to the complicated and changeable diagnosis and treatment of multiple primary tumors, there is no unified diagnosis and treatment standard at present.…”

“…The aim of the present study was to estimate the influence of family history on the risk of SPCs in patients with primary invasive or in situ SCC. We also hypothesized that family history of cancer X increases the risk for cancer X to be an SPC, as has been observed for some other cancers . We additionally tested if family history of skin cancer increases risk of second SCC after nonskin cancer.…”

“…We also hypothesized that family history of cancer X increases the risk for cancer X to be an SPC, as has been observed for some other cancers. [17][18][19][20][21] We additionally tested if family history of skin cancer increases risk of second SCC after nonskin cancer. Some recent results on prostate, breast and ovarian cancers suggest that the cause of death in patients with SPC is often the SPC; 18,19,22 therefore, we assessed survival in patients with SCC who were diagnosed with SPC and whether survival is influenced by family history of SPC.…”
