RESUMO

Ovarian cancer incidence has declined in recent decades, due in part to oral contraceptive (OC) use and tubal ligation. However, intrauterine device (IUD) use has increasingly replaced OC use. As ovarian cancer is an inflammation-related disease, we examined the association of OC use, IUD use, and tubal ligation with plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and soluble tumor necrosis factor α receptor 2 (sTNFR2), in the Nurses' Health Study (NHS) and NHSII. After adjusting for reproductive, hormonal, and lifestyle factors, and mutual adjustment for other methods of contraception, there were no differences in inflammatory markers between ever and never use of each method. However, CRP levels decreased from an average 30.4% (-53.6, 4.4) with every 5 years since initial IUD use (P-trend=0.03), while CRP increased an average 9.9% (95% CI: 5.7, 14.3) with every 5 years of use of OC (P-trend<0.0001) as well as differences by BMI and menopausal status. Our results suggest IUD use and tubal ligation are not associated with higher circulating inflammatory markers long term, although long duration of OC use may increase generalized inflammation, which may in part explain why its protective effect wanes over time.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The association of body composition with epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) mortality is poorly understood. To date, evidence suggests high adiposity associates with decreased mortality (an obesity paradox), but the impact of muscle on this association has not been investigated. Herein, we define associations of muscle and adiposity joint-exposure body composition phenotypes with EOC mortality. METHODS: Body composition from 500 women in The Body Composition and Epithelial Ovarian Cancer Survival Study was dichotomized as normal/low skeletal muscle index (SMI), a proxy for sarcopenia and high/low adiposity. Four phenotypes were classified as fit/reference (normal SMI/low adiposity; 16.2%), overweight/obese (normal SMI/high adiposity; 51.2%), sarcopenia/overweight-obese (low SMI/high adiposity; 15.6%), and sarcopenia/cachexia (low SMI/low adiposity; 17%). We used multivariable Cox models to estimate associations of each phenotype with mortality for EOC overall and high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC). RESULTS: Overweight/obesity was associated with up to 51% and 104% increased mortality in EOC and HGSOC (HR = 1.51, 95% CI: 1.05-2.19 and HR = 2.04, 95% CI: 1.29-3.21). Sarcopenia/overweight-obesity was associated with up to 66% and 67% increased mortality in EOC and HGSOC (HR = 1.66, 95% CI: 1.13-2.45 and HR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.05-2.68). Sarcopenia/cachexia was associated with up to 73% and 109% increased mortality in EOC and HGSOC (HR = 1.73, 95% CI: 1.14-2.63 and HR = 2.09, 95% CI: 1.25-3.50). CONCLUSIONS: Overweight/obesity, sarcopenia/overweight-obesity and sarcopenia/cachexia phenotypes were each associated with increased mortality in EOC and HGSOC. Exercise and dietary interventions could be leveraged as ancillary treatment strategies for improving outcomes in the most fatal gynecological malignancy with no previously established modifiable prognostic factors.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The emergence of large real-world clinical databases and tools to mine electronic medical records has allowed for an unprecedented look at large data sets with clinical and epidemiologic correlates. In clinical cancer genetics, real-world databases allow for the investigation of prevalence and effectiveness of prevention strategies and targeted treatments and for the identification of barriers to better outcomes. However, real-world data sets have inherent biases and problems (eg, selection bias, incomplete data, measurement error) that may hamper adequate analysis and affect statistical power. METHODS: Here, we leverage a real-world clinical data set from a large health network for patients with breast cancer tested for variants in BRCA1 and BRCA2 (N = 12,423). We conducted data cleaning and harmonization, cross-referenced with publicly available databases, performed variant reassessment and functional assays, and used functional data to inform a variant's clinical significance applying American College of Medical Geneticists and the Association of Molecular Pathology guidelines. RESULTS: In the cohort, White and Black patients were over-represented, whereas non-White Hispanic and Asian patients were under-represented. Incorrect or missing variant designations were the most significant contributor to data loss. While manual curation corrected many incorrect designations, a sizable fraction of patient carriers remained with incorrect or missing variant designations. Despite the large number of patients with clinical significance not reported, original reported clinical significance assessments were accurate. Reassessment of variants in which clinical significance was not reported led to a marked improvement in data quality. CONCLUSION: We identify the most common issues with BRCA1 and BRCA2 testing data entry and suggest approaches to minimize data loss and keep interpretation of clinical significance of variants up to date.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: High-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) gene expression subtypes are associated with differential survival. We characterized HGSC gene expression in Black individuals and considered whether gene expression differences by self-identified race may contribute to poorer HGSC survival among Black versus White individuals. METHODS: We included newly generated RNA-Seq data from Black and White individuals, and array-based genotyping data from four existing studies of White and Japanese individuals. We used K-means clustering, a method with no predefined number of clusters or dataset-specific features, to assign subtypes. Cluster- and dataset-specific gene expression patterns were summarized by moderated t-scores. We compared cluster-specific gene expression patterns across datasets by calculating the correlation between the summarized vectors of moderated t-scores. Following mapping to The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-derived HGSC subtypes, we used Cox proportional hazards models to estimate subtype-specific survival by dataset. RESULTS: Cluster-specific gene expression was similar across gene expression platforms and racial groups. Comparing the Black population to the White and Japanese populations, the immunoreactive subtype was more common (39% versus 23%-28%) and the differentiated subtype less common (7% versus 22%-31%). Patterns of subtype-specific survival were similar between the Black and White populations with RNA-Seq data; compared to mesenchymal cases, the risk of death was similar for proliferative and differentiated cases and suggestively lower for immunoreactive cases (Black population HR=0.79 [0.55, 1.13], White population HR=0.86 [0.62, 1.19]). CONCLUSIONS: While the prevalence of HGSC subtypes varied by race, subtype-specific survival was similar. IMPACT: HGSC subtypes can be consistently assigned across platforms and self-identified racial groups.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Limited estimates exist on risk factors for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) in Asian, Hispanic, and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander (NHPI) women. METHODS: Participants included 1734 Asian (785 cases, 949 controls), 266 NHPI (99 cases, 167 controls), 1149 Hispanic (505 cases, 644 controls), and 24,189 White (9,981 cases, 14,208 controls) women from 11 studies in the Ovarian Cancer Association Consortium. Logistic regression models estimated odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for risk associations by race and ethnicity. RESULTS: Heterogeneity in EOC risk associations by race and ethnicity (p ≤ 0.02) was observed for oral contraceptive (OC) use, parity, tubal ligation and smoking. We observed inverse associations with EOC risk for OC use and parity across all groups; associations were strongest in NHPI and Asian women. The inverse association for tubal ligation with risk was most pronounced for NHPI participants (OR=0.25, 95% CI 0.13-0.48), versus Asian and White participants, respectively (OR=0.68, 95% CI 0.51-0.90; OR=0.78, 95% CI 0.73-0.85). CONCLUSIONS: Differences in EOC risk factor associations were observed across racial and ethnic groups, which could in part be due to varying prevalence of EOC histotypes. Inclusion of greater diversity in future studies is essential to inform prevention strategies.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT: Idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) was the first chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy to gain US Food and Drug Administration approval for patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). The clinical outcomes of standard of care (SOC) ide-cel in racially and ethnically diverse populations have been understudied. This study pooled data from 207 patients with RRMM (28% patients of racial and ethnic minority groups) treated with SOC ide-cel across 11 institutions to examine racial and ethnic differences in the incidence of toxicities and adverse events, response to ide-cel, and survival. This study included 22 (11%) Hispanic, 36 (17%) non-Hispanic Black, and 149 (72%) non-Hispanic White patients with RRMM. Compared with Hispanic and non-Hispanic White patients, non-Hispanic Black patients had higher median levels of C-reactive protein (1.0, 0.8, and 3.5 mg/dL, respectively; P = .02) and baseline ferritin (362.0 vs 307.0 vs 680.5, respectively; P = .08) and were more likely to develop cytokine release syndrome (77%, 85%, and 97%, respectively; P = .04). Although best overall response rate was lower among Hispanic patients (59%) than among non-Hispanic Black (86%) and White patients (86%; P = .01), there were no racial and ethnic differences in progression-free or overall survival. We provide, to our knowledge, the first and largest investigation of clinical outcomes of SOC ide-cel by race and ethnicity. Despite differences in safety and response to ide-cel, our findings encourage the use of ide-cel in all patients with RRMM. These findings should be confirmed in larger samples of diverse patients with RRMM, with longer follow-up time.

RESUMO

We evaluated patients with relapsed multiple myeloma with renal impairment (RI) treated with standard of care idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel), as outcomes with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy are unknown in this population. RI was defined as creatinine clearance (CrCl) <50 mL/min. CrCl of <30 mL/min or dialysis dependence were defined as severe RI. The study cohort included 214 patients, 28 (13%) patients with RI, including 11 patients severe RI (dialysis, N=1). Patients with RI were older, more likely to be female and had higher likelihood of having Revised International Staging System stage 3 disease. Rates and severity of cytokine release syndrome (89% vs. 84%, grade ≥3: 7% vs. 2%) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (23% vs. 20%) were similar in patients with and without RI, respectively. Patients with RI had higher incidence of short-term grade ≥3 cytopenias, although cytopenias were similar by 3 months following CAR T-cell therapy. Renal function did not worsen after CAR T-cell therapy in patients with RI. Response rates (93% vs. 82%) and survival outcomes (median progression-free survival: 9 vs. 8 months; P=0.26) were comparable in patients with and without RI, respectively. Treatment with ide-cel is feasible in patients with RI, with a comparable safety and efficacy profile as patients without RI, with notable exception of higher short-term high-grade cytopenias.

We characterized HGSC gene expression in Black individuals and considered whether gene expression differences by race may contribute to poorer HGSC survival among Black versus non-Hispanic White individuals. Methods: We included newly generated RNA-Seq data from Black and White individuals, and array-based genotyping data from four existing studies of White and Japanese individuals. We assigned subtypes using K-means clustering. Cluster- and dataset-specific gene expression patterns were summarized by moderated t-scores. We compared cluster-specific gene expression patterns across datasets by calculating the correlation between the summarized vectors of moderated t-scores. Following mapping to The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-derived HGSC subtypes, we used Cox proportional hazards models to estimate subtype-specific survival by dataset. Results: Cluster-specific gene expression was similar across gene expression platforms. Comparing the Black study population to the White and Japanese study populations, the immunoreactive subtype was more common (39% versus 23%-28%) and the differentiated subtype less common (7% versus 22%-31%). Patterns of subtype-specific survival were similar between the Black and White populations with RNA-Seq data; compared to mesenchymal cases, the risk of death was similar for proliferative and differentiated cases and suggestively lower for immunoreactive cases (Black population HR=0.79 [0.55, 1.13], White population HR=0.86 [0.62, 1.19]). Conclusions: A single, platform-agnostic pipeline can be used to assign HGSC gene expression subtypes. While the observed prevalence of HGSC subtypes varied by race, subtype-specific survival was similar.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Most studies examining post-menopausal menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) use and ovarian cancer risk have focused on White women and few have included Black women. METHODS: We evaluated MHT use and ovarian cancer risk in Black (n = 800 cases, 1783 controls) and White women (n = 2710 cases, 8556 controls), using data from the Ovarian Cancer in Women of African Ancestry consortium. Logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association of MHT use with ovarian cancer risk, examining histotype, MHT type and duration of use. RESULTS: Long-term MHT use, ≥10 years, was associated with an increased ovarian cancer risk for White women (OR = 1.38, 95%CI: 1.22-1.57) and the association was consistent for Black women (OR = 1.20, 95%CI: 0.81-1.78, pinteraction = 0.4). For White women, the associations between long-term unopposed estrogen or estrogen plus progesterone use and ovarian cancer risk were similar; the increased risk associated with long-term MHT use was confined to high-grade serous and endometroid tumors. Based on smaller numbers for Black women, the increased ovarian cancer risk associated with long-term MHT use was apparent for unopposed estrogen use and was predominately confined to other epithelial histotypes. CONCLUSION: The association between long-term MHT use and ovarian cancer risk was consistent for Black and White women.

RESUMO

While response rates and survival outcomes have been very promising for idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel), a proportion of patients do not respond or relapse early after this B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) targeted CAR T-cell therapy. Understanding the characteristics of these patients is important for patient selection and development of novel strategies to improve outcomes. We evaluated factors associated with early progression (progression or death due to myeloma ≤ 3 months after CAR T infusion) in patients treated with standard of care ide-cel at 11 US academic centers. Among 211 patients that received ide-cel, 43 patients had a progressive event ≤ 3 months of infusion. Patients with a history of extramedullary disease, prior BCMA targeted therapy, elevated ferritin at lymphodepletion, use of bridging therapy, Hispanic ethnicity, plasma cell leukemia and t(4;14) were more likely to progress ≤ 3 months of infusion (p < 0.05). Of these risk factors for early progression identified in univariate analyses, history of extramedullary disease, prior BCMA targeted therapy, elevated ferritin at lymphodepletion, plasma cell leukemia, and t(4;14) were associated with worse progression-free survival (PFS) in multivariable analysis. Presence of three or more of these factors had a significant negative impact on PFS (p < 0.001; median PFS for ≥ 3 factors, 3.2 months vs. 0 factors, 14.1 months). This study helps identify patients at high risk of early progression after CAR T who may benefit from specific interventions pre and post CAR T to improve outcomes.

RESUMO

Idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) was the first FDA-approved chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) patients. This was the first study to evaluate patient-reported outcomes (PROs) among RRMM patients receiving ide-cel in standard of care (SOC). We prospectively assessed health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and symptoms from pre-infusion (baseline) through day (D)90 post-infusion. Baseline PRO associations with patient characteristics, mean PRO changes, and time to stable change were evaluated with t-tests, linear mixed-effects models, and Kaplan-Meier analyses, respectively. Within-person change scores and minimally important difference thresholds determined clinical and meaningful significance. Participants (n = 42) were a median of 66 years old (range: 43-81). At baseline, extramedullary disease was associated with worse physical well-being (p = 0.008), global pain (p < 0.001), performance status (p = 0.002), and overall symptom burden (p < 0.001). Fatigue (p < 0.001) and functional well-being (p = 0.003) worsened by D7 before returning to baseline levels. Overall HRQOL (p = 0.008) and physical well-being (p < 0.001) improved by D60. Most participants reported PRO improvement (10-57%) or maintenance (23-69%) by D90. The median time it took to stabile deterioration in functional well-being was 14 days. The median time it took to stabile improvement in physical and emotional well-being was 60 days. Overall, RRMM patients reported improvements or maintenance of HRQOL and symptom burden after SOC ide-cel.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Deprivation indices are often used to adjust for socio-economic disparities in health studies. Their role has been partially evaluated for certain population-level cancer outcomes, but examination of their role in ovarian cancer is limited. In this study, we evaluated a range of well-recognized deprivation indices in relation to cancer survival in a cohort of self-identified Black women diagnosed with ovarian cancer. This study aimed to determine if clinical or diagnostic characteristics lie on a mediating pathway between socioeconomic status (SES) and deprivation and ovarian cancer survival in a minority population that experiences worse survival from ovarian cancer. METHODS: We used mediation analysis to look at the direct and indirect causal effects of deprivation indices with main mediators of the SEER stage at diagnosis and residual disease. The analysis employed Bayesian structural equation models with variable selection. We applied a joint Bayesian structural model for the mediator, including a Weibull mixed model for the vital outcome with deprivation as exposure. We selected modifiers via a Monte Carlo model selection procedure. RESULTS: The results suggest that high SES-related indices, such as Yost, Kolak urbanicity (URB), mobility (MOB) and SES dimensions, and concentrated disadvantage index (CDI), all have a significant impact on improved survival. In contrast, area deprivation index (ADI)/Singh, and area level poverty (POV) did not have a major impact. In some cases, the indirect effects have very wide credible intervals, so the total effect is not well estimated despite the estimation of the direct effect. CONCLUSIONS: First, it is clear that commonly used indices such as Yost, or CDI both significantly impact the survival experience of Black women diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer. In addition, the Kolak dimension indices (URB, MOB, mixed immigrant: MICA and SES) also demonstrate a significant association, depending on the mediator. Mediation effects differ according to the mediator chosen.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: An association was observed between an inflammation-related risk score (IRRS) and worse overall survival (OS) among a cohort of mostly White women with invasive epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Herein, we evaluated the association between the IRRS and OS among Black women with EOC, a population with higher frequencies of pro-inflammatory exposures and worse survival. METHODS: The analysis included 592 Black women diagnosed with EOC from the African American Cancer Epidemiology Study (AACES). Cox proportional hazards models were used to compute hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association of the IRRS and OS, adjusting for relevant covariates. Additional inflammation-related exposures, including the energy-adjusted Dietary Inflammatory Index (E-DIITM), were evaluated. RESULTS: A dose-response trend was observed showing higher IRRS was associated with worse OS (per quartile HR: 1.11, 95% CI: 1.01-1.22). Adding the E-DII to the model attenuated the association of IRRS with OS, and increasing E-DII, indicating a more pro-inflammatory diet, was associated with shorter OS (per quartile HR: 1.12, 95% CI: 1.02-1.24). Scoring high on both indices was associated with shorter OS (HR: 1.54, 95% CI: 1.16-2.06). CONCLUSION: Higher levels of inflammation-related exposures were associated with decreased EOC OS among Black women.

RESUMO

Most patients with multiple myeloma experience disease relapse after treatment with a B-cell maturation antigen-targeted therapy (BCMA-TT), and data describing outcomes for patients treated with sequential BCMA-TT are limited. We analyzed clinical outcomes for patients infused with standard-of-care idecabtagene vicleucel, an anti-BCMA chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, at 11 US medical centers. A total of 50 patients with prior BCMA-TT exposure (38 antibody-drug conjugate, 7 bispecific, 5 CAR T) and 153 patients with no prior BCMA-TT were infused with ide-cel, with a median follow-up duration of 4.5 and 6.0 months, respectively. Safety outcomes between cohorts were comparable. The prior BCMA-TT cohort had a lower overall response rate (74% versus 88%; p = 0.021), median duration of response (7.4 versus 9.6 months; p = 0.03), and median progression-free survival (3.2 months versus 9.0 months; p = 0.0002) compared to the cohort without prior BCMA-TT. All five patients who received a prior anti-BCMA CAR T responded to ide-cel, and survival outcomes were best for this subgroup. In conclusion, treatment with ide-cel yielded meaningful clinical responses in real-world patients exposed to a prior BCMA-TT, though response rates and durability were suboptimal compared to those not treated with a prior BCMA-TT.

RESUMO

Idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) is a type of B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-targeting chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) approved for the treatment of relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). Currently, the incidence of cardiac events associated with ide-cel remains unclear. This was a retrospective single-center observational study of patients treated with ide-cel for RRMM. We included all consecutive patients who received standard-of-care ide-cel treatment at least 1-month follow-up. Baseline clinical risk factors, safety profile, and responses were examined based on the development of a cardiac event. A total of 78 patients were treated with ide-cel, and 11 patients (14.1%) developed cardiac events: heart failure (5.1%), atrial fibrillation (10.3%), nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (3.8%), and cardiovascular death (1.3%). Only 11 of the 78 patients had repeat echocardiogram. Baseline risk factors associated with the development of cardiac events included being female sex and having poor performance status, λ light-chain disease, and advanced Revised International Staging System stage. Baseline cardiac characteristics were not associated with cardiac events. During index hospitalization after CAR-T, higher-grade (≥grade 2) cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune cell-associated neurologic syndrome were associated with cardiac events. In multivariable analyses, the hazard ratio for the association of the presence of cardiac events with overall survival (OS) was 2.66 and progression-free survival (PFS) was 1.98. Ide-cel CAR-T for RRMM was associated with similar cardiac events as other types of CAR-T. Worse baseline performance status and higher-grade CRS and neurotoxicity were associated with cardiac events after BCMA-directed CAR-T-cell therapy. Our results suggest that the presence of cardiac events may confer worse PFS or OS; although because of the small sample size, the power to detect an association was limited.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate associations between endometriosis and uterine leiomyomas with ovarian cancer risk by race and the effect of hysterectomy on these associations. METHODS: We used data from four case-control studies and two case-control studies nested within prospective cohorts in the OCWAA (Ovarian Cancer in Women of African Ancestry) consortium. The study population included 3,124 Black participants and 5,458 White participants, of whom 1,008 Black participants and 2,237 White participants had ovarian cancer. Logistic regression was used to calculate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% CIs for the associations of endometriosis and leiomyomas with ovarian cancer risk, by race, stratified by histotype and hysterectomy. RESULTS: The prevalences of endometriosis and leiomyomas were 6.4% and 43.2% among Black participants and 7.0% and 21.5% among White participants, respectively. Endometriosis was associated with an increased risk of endometrioid and clear-cell ovarian cancer in both racial groups (eg, OR for endometrioid tumors for Black and White participants 7.06 [95% CI 3.86-12.91] and 2.17 [95% CI 1.36-3.45], respectively, Phetereogeneity =.003). The association between endometriosis and ovarian cancer risk in White participants was stronger in those without hysterectomy, but no difference was observed in Black participants (all Pinteraction ≥.05). Leiomyomas were associated with an elevated risk of ovarian cancer only in those without hysterectomy in both Black (OR 1.34, 95% CI 1.11-1.62) and White (OR 1.22, 95% CI 1.05-1.41) participants (all Pinteraction ≥.05). CONCLUSIONS: Black and White participants with endometriosis had a higher risk of ovarian cancer, and hysterectomy modified this association among White participants. Leiomyomas were associated with an increased risk of ovarian cancer in both racial groups, with hysterectomy modifying the risk in both groups.

RESUMO

Given the challenges with achieving effective and durable treatment for epithelial ovarian cancer, primary prevention is highly desirable. Fortunately, decades of research have provided evidence for several strategies that can be deployed to optimize risk reduction. These include surgery, chemoprevention, and lifestyle factor modifications. These broad categories vary in terms of the magnitude of risk reduction possible, the possible short-term and long-term side effects, the degree of difficulty, and acceptability. Thus, the concept of a risk-based model to personalize preventive interventions is advocated to guide discussion between care providers and women at risk. For women with inherited major gene mutations that greatly increase risk of ovarian cancer, surgical approaches have favorable risk to benefit ratios. Chemoprevention and lifestyle factor modifications portend a lower degree of risk reduction but confer lower risk of undesirable side effects. Since complete prevention is not currently possible, better methods for early detection remain a high priority.
