ObjectiveWe examined the risk of primary gastrointestinal cancers in women with breast cancer and compared this risk with that of the general population.DesignUsing population-based Danish registries, we conducted a cohort study of women with incident non-metastatic breast cancer (1990–2017). We computed cumulative cancer incidences and standardised incidence ratios (SIRs).ResultsAmong 84 972 patients with breast cancer, we observed 2340 gastrointestinal cancers. After 20 years of follow-up, the cumulative incidence of gastrointestinal cancers was 4%, driven mainly by colon cancers. Only risk of stomach cancer was continually increased beyond 1 year following breast cancer. The SIR for colon cancer was neutral during 2–5 years of follow-up and approximately 1.2-fold increased thereafter. For cancer of the oesophagus, the SIR was increased only during 6–10 years. There was a weak association with pancreas cancer beyond 10 years. Between 1990–2006 and 2007–2017, the 1–10 years SIR estimate decreased and reached unity for upper gastrointestinal cancers (oesophagus, stomach, and small intestine). For lower gastrointestinal cancers (colon, rectum, and anal canal), the SIR estimate was increased only after 2007. No temporal effects were observed for the remaining gastrointestinal cancers. Treatment effects were negligible.ConclusionBreast cancer survivors were at increased risk of oesophagus and stomach cancer, but only before 2007. The risk of colon cancer was increased, but only after 2007.

Abstract Background Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) treatment for human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer after taxane with trastuzumab and pertuzumab is standard therapy. However, treatment strategies beyond T-DM1 are still in development with insufficient evidence of their effectiveness. Here, we aimed to evaluate real-world treatment choice and efficacy of treatments after T-DM1 for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. Methods In this multi-centre retrospective cohort study involving 17 hospitals, 325 female HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients whose post-T-DM1 treatment began between April 15, 2014 and December 31, 2018 were enrolled. The primary end point was the objective response rate (ORR) of post-T-DM1 treatments. Secondary end points included disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), time to treatment failure (TTF), and overall survival (OS). Results The median number of prior treatments of post-T-DM1 treatment was four. The types of post-T-DM1 treatments included (1) chemotherapy in combination with trastuzumab and pertuzumab (n = 102; 31.4%), (2) chemotherapy concomitant with trastuzumab (n = 78; 24.0%), (3), lapatinib with capecitabine (n = 63; 19.4%), and (4) others (n = 82; 25.2%). ORR was 22.8% [95% confidence interval (CI): 18.1–28.0], DCR = 66.6% (95% CI 60.8–72.0), median PFS = 6.1 months (95% CI 5.3–6.7), median TTF = 5.1 months (95% CI 4.4–5.6), and median OS = 23.7 months (95% CI 20.7–27.4). Conclusion The benefits of treatments after T-DM1 are limited. Further investigation of new treatment strategies beyond T-DM1 is awaited for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients.

Introduction: Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women aged 20-59 years. Younger women usually have more aggressive tumors and more advanced disease with larger size and axillary lymph node involvement. There have been few studies assessing the characteristics of breast cancer in very young women. Objective: Evaluate the epidemiological and clinical profile of non-metastatic very young patients with breast cancer. Method: We performed a retrospective analysis to evaluate the epidemiological and clinical profile of non-metastatic breast cancer in patients ≤ 30 years of age treated between 1993 and 2011 at the Brazilian National Cancer Institute José Alencar Gomes da Silva. We evaluated relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: Of the 196 patients evaluated, 181 (90%) had ductal carcinoma, 79 (40%) had high-grade tumors, and 102 (52%) had hormone receptor-positive tumors. 117 patients(60%) had stage III disease at diagnosis. The median age was 29 years (range, 17-30 years). Of 185 patients who underwent surgery, 156 (84.3%) underwent total mastectomy and 171 (92%) underwent axillary lymph node dissection. 119 patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and 14 patients (9.3%) underwent neoadjuvant radiotherapy. After a median follow-up of 81.5 months, 109 patients (55%) had relapsed and 81 (41%) had died. The median RFS and OS were 49.5 months and 134 months, respectively. Lymph node involvement and neoadjuvant chemotherapy were associated with shorter RFS and OS. Conclusion: Breast cancer is uncommon in young patients, especially in those ≤ 30 years of age. We found a predominance of locally advanced disease and worse prognostic pathological characteristics. Despite the aggressive treatment, our patients had worse outcomes than those reported by other authors.
