Comparison of Survivorship Care Guidelines for Patients With Lymphoma: Recommendations for Harmonization and Future Research Agenda.

Purpose: Lymphomas are a heterogeneous group of diseases that develop in individuals of all ages and have variable prognoses. Improved survival resulting from therapy advances has led to the emergence of diverse late effects. Although several (US)-based organizations have developed survivorship guidelines, the distinct features of lymphoma subtypes and diverse therapies used raise concerns regarding their applicability to lymphoma survivors.

Utilization of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation among patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia in California: a population-based linked dataset study.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) often requires allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) for cure, but historically alloHCT has been strikingly underutilized. Reasons for this remain uncertain at the population level. We examined alloHCT utilization over time and explored associations between demographic/healthcare factors and use of alloHCT by age group (AYA 15-39y, adult 40-64y, older adult 65-79y) using a linked dataset merging the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research, California Cancer Registry, and California Patient Discharge Database.

Cumulative incidence estimates for solid tumors after HCT in the CIBMTR and California Cancer Registry.

Compared with the general population, hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) survivors are at elevated risk for developing solid subsequent neoplasms (SNs). The Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) is a key resource for quantifying solid SN incidence following HCT, but the completeness of SN ascertainment is uncertain. Within a cohort of 18 450 CIBMTR patients linked to the California Cancer Registry (CCR), we evaluated the completeness of solid SN data reported to the CIBMTR from 1991 to 2018 to understand the implications of using CIBMTR data alone or combined with CCR data to quantify the burden of solid SNs after HCT.

Utilization of Autologous Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Over Time in Multiple Myeloma: A Population-Based Study.

Purpose: Autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (autoHCT) is associated with survival benefits in multiple myeloma (MM), but utilization remains low and differs by sociodemographic factors. Prior population-based studies have not fully captured autoHCT utilization or examined relationships between sociodemographic factors and autoHCT trends over time.

Patients And Methods: We used a novel data linkage between the California Cancer Registry, Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research, and hospitalizations to capture autoHCT in a population-based MM cohort (n = 29, 109; 1991-2016).

Testicular cancer mortality in Latin America and the Caribbean: trend analysis from 1997 to 2019.

Background: In the last decades, an increasing incidence of testicular cancer has been observed in several countries worldwide. Although mortality rates have been variable in many countries, little information is available from Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). Therefore, we examined mortality trends of testicular cancer in the last two decades.

Temporal Variation of Treatment Patterns and Survival Outcomes of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Patients: A Real-World Experience From 2000 to 2014.

Background: Previous studies have reported a higher prevalence of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) in US Hispanic/Latina populations. However, survival outcomes and treatment approaches over time in Latin American females are scarcely reported. We aimed to evaluate the temporal variation in treatment patterns and overall survival (OS) outcomes of females with TNBC according to cancer stage.

Outcomes of robotic nipple-sparing mastectomy versus conventional nipple-sparing mastectomy in women with breast cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

The promising results of the robotic approach for multiple cancer operations has led to interest in the potential of robotic nipple-sparing mastectomy (R-NSM); however, further studies are required to compare the benefits and complications of this approach with those of conventional open nipple-sparing mastectomy (C-NSM). We performed a meta-analysis to compare surgical complications of R-NSM versus C-NSM. We performed a review of literature through June 2022 in PubMed, Scopus, and EMBASE.

Clinical Features and Outcomes of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Among Latin American Adolescents and Young Adults Compared to Middle-Aged and Elder Females: A Cohort Analysis Over 15 Years.

Outcomes of females with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) are rarely explored in adolescents and young adults (AYAs). We compared clinical and survival outcomes of Latin American AYAs (≤39 years) with middle-aged (40-59 years) and older (≥60 years) females with TNBC by cancer stage. We performed a single-center retrospective cohort study among treated females with cancer stages I-III diagnosed from 2000 to 2014 in Peru.

Sex and age differences in mortality trends of gastric cancer among Hispanic/Latino populations in the United States, Latin America, and the Caribbean.

Background: An up-to-date analysis of gastric cancer mortality among Hispanic/Latino populations is required for estimating disease burden and assessing the effectiveness of clinical and preventive strategies.

Methods: We retrieved gastric cancer deaths between 1997 and 2017 (as available) from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (United States Hispanics) and the World Health Organization databases (Puerto Rico, 16 Latin American and Caribbean countries). Joinpoint regression analysis was used to examine trends in age-standardized mortality rates (ASMR; per 100 000 person-years) and calculate average annual percent changes (AAPCs) by country (or territory), age group (25-49 and ≥50 years), and sex.

Linking the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research Registry to the California Cancer Registry and California Hospital Patient Discharge Data.

Advances in hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) have substantially improved patient survival, increasing the importance of studying outcomes and long-term adverse effects in the rapidly growing population of HCT survivors. Large-scale registry data from the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) are a valuable resource for studying mortality and late effects after HCT, providing detailed data reported by HCT centers on transplantation-related factors and key outcomes. This study was conducted to evaluate the robustness of CIBMTR outcome data and assess health-related outcomes and healthcare utilization among HCT recipients.

Treatment and Survival Outcomes of Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia in Latin American Patients: A Multinational Retrospective Cohort Study.

Purpose: Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia (WM) is a rare lymphoma with distinct clinical features, and data from Latin American patients are lacking. Therefore, we aim to investigate the clinical, therapy, and outcome patterns of WM in Latin America.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients with WM diagnosed between 1991 and 2019 from 24 centers in seven Latin American countries.

Association of healthcare system factors with childhood leukemia mortality in Peru, 2017-2019: A population-based analysis.

Background: Childhood leukemia mortality is expected to increase in certain developing Latin American countries by 2030. The development of tailored public health interventions could benefit by understanding the role of healthcare system factors. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the area-level association of healthcare system factors with leukemia mortality among Peruvian children aged 0-19.

An international, multicenter, retrospective study on the positive impact of cutaneous involvement on the clinical outcome of adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma.

Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is a largely incurable disease. Cutaneous involvement is common and could be first symptom of the disease. We analyzed 169 patients with ATLL of whom 63 had cutaneous involvement.
