Background: As the age at first pregnancy continues to rise in the United States so does the incidence of breast cancer diagnosed during pregnancy. Our objective was to evaluate temporal trends in the incidence of pregnancy-associated breast cancer (PABC) and to measure neonatal outcomes associated with PABC.

Methods: We conducted a population-based cohort study using the 1999-2012 Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project-Nationwide Inpatient Sample (HCUP-NIS) from the United States. Logistic regression models, adjusted for maternal baseline characteristics, examined the effect of PABC on neonatal outcomes.

Results: There were 11 846 300 deliveries between 1999 and 2012, of which 772 cases of PABC were identified, resulting in an overall incidence of 6.5 cases/100 000 pregnancies. There was a significant increase in the incidence of PABC during the study period (P < 0.05). Women with PABC tended to be older, of white ethnicity, belong to a higher income quartile and to be treated in an urban teaching hospital. In pregnancies complicated by breast cancer, there was a greater risk of preterm delivery (OR 4.84, 95% CI 4.05-5.79) and preterm premature rupture of membranes (OR 1.79, 95% CI 1.06-3.05). No associations were observed between PABC and intrauterine growth restriction, congenital anomalies or intrauterine fetal demise.

Conclusion: There is an uptrend in the incidence of PABC and therefore, the need for counseling these patients is also increasing. Although pregnancies with the diagnosis of maternal breast cancer are more prone to premature births, it is encouraging that these babies do not appear to be at increased risk for congenital anomalies, growth restriction, or fetal demise.

Background: Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) has shown promising activity in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer (BC) and central nervous system (CNS) involvement. In this updated meta-analysis, we explore the effectiveness of T-DXd in a large subset of patients with HER2-positive BC and CNS disease.

Methods: A systematic search was made on September 16th, 2024, for studies investigating T-DXd in the scenario of HER2-positive BC and brain metastases (BMs) and/or leptomeningeal disease (LMD).

Supervised Exercise for Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer: A Cost-Utility Analysis Alongside the PREFERABLE-EFFECT Randomized Controlled Trial.

J Clin Oncol

January 2025

Department of Epidemiology and Health Economics, Julius Center for Health Sciences and Primary Care, University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht University, Utrecht, the Netherlands.

Purpose: To evaluate the cost utility of a 9-month supervised exercise program for patients with metastatic breast cancer (mBC), compared with control (usual care, supplemented with general activity advice and an activity tracker). Evidence on the cost-effectiveness of exercise for patients with mBC is essential for implementation in clinical practice and is currently lacking.

Methods: A cost-utility analysis was performed alongside the multinational PREFERABLE-EFFECT randomized controlled trial, conducted in 8 centers across Europe and Australia.

Current in vitro models of 3D tumor spheroids within the microenvironment have emerged as promising tools for understanding tumor progression and potential drug responses. However, creating spheroids with functional vasculature remains challenging in a controlled and high-throughput manner. Herein, a novel open 3D-microarray platform is presented for a spheroid-endothelium interaction (ODSEI) chip, capable of arraying more than 1000 spheroids on top of the vasculature, compartmentalized for single spheroid-level analysis of drug resistance, and allows for the extraction of specific spheroids for further analysis.

Introduction: Personalised prevention offers a promising tool to reduce the impact of non-communicable diseases, which represent a growing health burden worldwide. However, to support the adoption of this innovation it is needed to clarify the current state of available evidence in this area. This work aims to provide an overview of recent publications on personalised prevention for chronic conditions.
