67 Background: Colon cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. There has been a renewing interest in the role of PTL (right- or RS vs. left-sided or LS) in CC for their differences in biology, prognostic and predictive features. Given the increasing incidence of early-onset (age 20-49) CC, coupled with their longer life expectancy, we seek to examine the effects of PTL and age in the development of SPM in a population-based cohort. Methods: Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program data were queried to identify CC PTS diagnosed between 1973-2015 with complete follow-up information and available data on SPM. Using SEER*Stat, we calculated standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) -- the ratio of observed to expected cases of SPM based on incidence data in the general US population and compared by PTL (RS vs. LS) and age of diagnosis (20-49 vs. >49). Results: A total of 269,442 (RS/LS=46.4%/53.6%) CC PTS were obtained. Overall RS, compared with LS, CC PTS have a higher likelihood of developing SPM in all sites (OR: 1.09, 95% CI: 1.08- 1.11 vs. 1.03, 1.02-1.04). RS CC PTS and age 20-49 group, compared with other subgroups, has a much greater likelihood of being diagnosed with the following SPM:small intestine, urinary tract, bile duct, gynecologic (GYN), and stomach cancers, as shown in the Table below. Conclusions: Our results show that the increased risk in non-colonic SPMs in CC PTS is associated with RS CC and age less than 49, suggesting the implications on survivorship care and surveillance of SPMs. Furthermore, there may be a possible overlap with Lynch syndrome in these PTS with SPM given the overlap in the presentation of cancer patterns and early-onset of CC, suggesting the indication for MMR testing.

ObjectiveOvarian clear cell carcinoma has unique clinical and molecular features compared with other epithelial ovarian cancer histologies. Our objective was to describe the incidence of second primary malignancy in patients with ovarian clear cell carcinoma.MethodsRetrospective cohort study of patients with ovarian clear cell carcinoma at two tertiary academic centers in Toronto, Canada between May 1995 and June 2017. Demographic, histopathologic, treatment, and survival details were obtained from chart review and a provincial cancer registry. We excluded patients with histologies other than pure ovarian clear cell carcinoma (such as mixed clear cell histology), and those who did not have their post-operative follow-up at these institutions.ResultsOf 209 patients with ovarian clear cell carcinoma, 54 patients developed a second primary malignancy (25.8%), of whom six developed two second primary malignancies. Second primary malignancies included: breast (13), skin (9), gastrointestinal tract (9), other gynecologic malignancies (8), thyroid (6), lymphoma (3), head and neck (4), urologic (4), and lung (4). Eighteen second primary malignancies occurred before the index ovarian clear cell carcinoma, 35 after ovarian clear cell carcinoma, and 7 were diagnosed concurrently. Two patients with second primary malignancies were diagnosed with Lynch syndrome. Smoking and radiation therapy were associated with an increased risk of second primary malignancy on multivariable analysis (OR 3.69, 95% CI 1.54 to 9.07, p=0.004; OR 4.39, 95% CI 1.88 to 10.6, p=0.0008, respectively). However, for patients developing second primary malignancies after ovarian clear cell carcinoma, radiation therapy was not found to be a significant risk factor (p=0.17). There was no significant difference in progression-free survival (p=0.85) or overall survival (p=0.38) between those with second primary malignancy and those without.ConclusionPatients with ovarian clear cell carcinoma are at increased risk of second primary malignancies, most frequently non-Lynch related. A subset of patients with ovarian clear cell carcinoma may harbor mutations rendering them susceptible to second primary malignancies. Our results may have implications for counseling and consideration for second primary malignancy screening.

446 Background: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) survivors have an increased risk of developing second primary cancers. We sought to determine the role of RCC tumor histology for the risk of developing second primary solid tumors. Methods: The Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database was used to detect RCC cases diagnosed up to 12/31/2011. The Standardized Incidence Ratio (SIR) was calculated as the ratio of observed to expected cases of second primary malignancy based on incidence data in the general United States population. The two most common RCC histological subtypes were included; clear cell and papillary. The latency exclusion period from the date of diagnosis was 60 months. We investigated for the effect of latency period after initial diagnosis (5-10 years and >10 years) that may increase the risk for a second primary cancer. Results: A total of 2,669 patients with an initial diagnosis of RCC (clear cell: 2,368, papillary: 301) that developed second primary cancers were included in our analysis. There was a significantly increased risk of thyroid cancer (SIR: 2.30, p<0.05), prostate cancer (SIR: 1.12, p<0.05) and “all solid tumors” (SIR: 1.14, p<0.05) in clear cell RCC cases. Regarding latency period, thyroid cancer (SIR: 2.87, p<0.05) risk was increased in the 5-10 years latency period, but not in the >10 years latency period. Overall, in patients diagnosed with papillary RCC, tumors of the prostate (SIR: 1.30, p<0.05), lung (SIR: 1.78, p<0.05) and pancreas (SIR: 2.70, p<0.05) were increased. Exclusively in the 5-10 years latency period, the risk for developing lung cancer (SIR: 1.90, p<0.05) was significant. Conclusions: RCC histology may impact the risk for developing specific second primary solid tumors.

e13690 Background: Male breast cancer (MBC) is rare accounting for less than 0.5% of all cancer diagnoses in men. We used the term secondary male breast cancer (sMBC) to refer to ipsilateral and contralateral recurrences in addition to new primary MBC. Given its low incidence, data regarding the risk of developing sMBC and its characteristics are scarce. Methods: Multiple Primary Standardized Incidence Ratios (MP-SIR) session was conducted from the SEER*Stat software. We included all patients diagnosed with stage I,II and III MBC between 1990 to 2015 from the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) 18 registry. The standardized incidence ratio (SIR) was calculated as an estimate of the risk of a second primary malignancy based on the incidence in the general population. Descriptive statistics and Kaplan-Meier analysis were performed using SPSS software. Results: Among all 2321 men diagnosed with a first primary MBC during the study period, 28 patients had a subsequent diagnosis of MBC. The risk of sMBC was significantly elevated with SIR of 33.12 (95% CI, 22.18 – 47.56). The median latency period between the initial and subsequent diagnoses was 5.9 years. 82.1% of the patients were White, 14.3% Black and 3.6% Asian/Pacific Islander. Majority of the cases constituting 85.7% of sMBC were diagnosed in the contralateral breast. 67.8% of the sMBC remained hormone receptors status positive similar to the initial status of the primary diagnosis. 42.9% of the sMBC patients were diagnosed with stage I, 17.9% with stage II, 3.6% with stage III, 17.9% with stage IV and 17.9% of unknown stage. The median overall survival for sMBC was 96 months (95% CI, 11.3-180.6). We also found an increased risk of developing liver cancer (SIR: 2.16), prostate cancer (SIR: 1.29), thyroid cancer (SIR: 3.08) and acute myeloid leukemia (SIR: 2.4) in individuals after a diagnosis of MBC. Conclusions: Men diagnosed with breast cancer are at increased risk of sMBC in addition to other malignancies which require careful monitoring after completing initial treatment. Contralateral mammogram screening or prophylactic contralateral mastectomy can be considered based on patient’s preferences and values.

Increased risk of second primary malignancy (SPM) in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) has been reported. Here, we present the most updated incidence rates of second primary malignancy from original diagnosis of PTC by using the data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results. In this cohort, 3,200 patients developed SPM, a substantially higher number than in the reference population of 2,749 with observed to expected ratio (O/E) of 1.16 (95% CI; 1.12–1.21). Bone and joint cancer had the highest O/E ratio of 4.26 (95% confidence interval [CI] 2.33–7.15) followed by salivary gland (O/E 4.15; 95% CI 2.76–6.0) and acute lymphocytic leukemia (O/E 3.98; 95% CI 2.12–6.8). Mean age at the diagnosis of SPM was 64.4 years old. Interestingly, incidence of colorectal cancer was lower in thyroid cancer survivors compared to general population (large intestine O/E 0.3; 95% CI 0.06–0.88, rectum O/E 0.6; 95% CI 0.41–0.85); however, this was not observed in patients who underwent radiation therapy. The incidence of SPM at all sites was higher during 2000–2012 compared to 1992–1999 (O/E 1.24 versus 1.10). Surprisingly, patients with micropapillary cancer had higher incidence of SPM than counterparts with a larger tumor in radiation group (O/E of 1.40 versus 1.15). O/E of all cancers were higher in males compared to females with O/E of 1.41 versus 1.17 during the period of 2000–2012. Diagnosis of PTC before age 50, especially at age 30–34, was associated with higher incidence of overall SPM (age 30–34; O/E 1.43; 95% CI; 1.19–1.71). Efficient monitoring strategies that include age at the time of thyroid cancer diagnosis, exposure to radiation, gender, and genetic susceptibility may successfully detect SPM earlier in the disease course. This is especially important given the excellent prognosis of the initial thyroid cancer itself.

e15089 Background: Early-onset colorectal cancer (EO-CRC) incidence is increasing disproportionately among minorities compared to Non-Hispanic Whites (NHW). EO-CRC have aggressive features such as higher grade and advanced stages. The appropriate age to start screening colonoscopy (SC) in NHW and minorities remains controversial; varying between 45 and 50 years old. We aim to compare EO-CRC clinico-pathological characteristics and survival rates by race groups. Methods: Patients with colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC) with available race and stage as per AJCC 6th edition were identified using the SEER registry (1973-2010). EO-CRC was defined as CRC before age 50 years. Clinico-pathological features, overall survival (OS) by Kaplan Meier curves and mortality predictors by multivariate analysis were evaluated by race groups. Results: 180 605 patients with CRC were identified; 10.2% had EO-CRC. Mean age of diagnosis was 42.7 years and EO-CRC frequency was higher in minorities (Hispanics (H):16.7%, Non-Hispanic Black (NHB):12.7% and Asian (A): 12.8%) compared to NHW (8.7%). EO-CRC in NHB was predominantly seen in females. The rectum was the most common location for all races. Two-thirds of tumors were located between the sigmoid and anal regions in all races except NHB that had higher frequencies of right-sided tumors. Compared to other races, NHB had worse OS at all stages and tumor locations. NHB was associated with 72% increased risk of death by multivariate analysis. Conclusions: Our data suggest that EO-CRC frequency, pathological features and OS differ by race group; hence SC guidelines should be tailored accordingly. SC would be considered early; especially in minorities. Complete colonoscopy should be considered for NHB given higher rates of right-sided tumors and worse OS; while sigmoidoscopy may be adequate for others up to age 50, given higher rates of tumors located in the sigmoid to anal region.

ObjectiveFactors that lead to metabolic dysregulation are associated with increased risk of early-onset colorectal cancer (CRC diagnosed under age 50). However, the association between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and early-onset CRC remains unexamined.DesignWe conducted a nested case–control study among participants aged 18–64 in the IBM MarketScan Commercial Database (2006–2015). Incident CRC was identified using pathologist-coded International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) codes, and controls were frequency matched. MetS was defined as presence of ≥3 conditions among obesity, hypertension, hyperlipidaemia and hyperglycaemia/type 2 diabetes, based on ICD-9-CM and use of medications. Multivariable logistic regressions were used to estimate ORs and 95% CIs.ResultsMetS was associated with increased risk of early-onset CRC (n=4673; multivariable adjusted OR 1.25; 95% CI 1.09 to 1.43), similar to CRC diagnosed at age 50–64 (n=14 928; OR 1.21; 95% CI 1.15 to 1.27). Compared with individuals without a metabolic comorbid condition, those with 1, 2 or ≥3 conditions had a 9% (1.09; 95% CI 1.00 to 1.17), 12% (1.12; 95% CI 1.01 to 1.24) and 31% (1.31; 95% CI 1.13 to 1.51) higher risk of early-onset CRC (ptrend <0.001). No associations were observed for one or two metabolic comorbid conditions and CRC diagnosed at age 50–64. These positive associations were driven by proximal (OR per condition 1.14; 95% CI 1.06 to 1.23) and distal colon cancer (OR 1.09; 95% CI 1.00 to 1.18), but not rectal cancer (OR 1.03; 95% CI 0.97 to 1.09).ConclusionsMetabolic dysregulation was associated with increased risk of early-onset CRC, driven by proximal and distal colon cancer, thus at least in part contribute to the rising incidence of early-onset CRC.
