Understanding risk patterns for developing a second primary malignancy (SPM) after cutaneous melanoma (CM) has implications for both research and clinical practice, including cancer screening.
We sought to describe incidence patterns of SPMs occurring after CM.
We calculated incidence rates and relative risks for the development of 65 different SPMs occurring in 16,591 CM survivors during 1.3 million person-years of observation in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results program data from 1973 to 2003.
Compared with the general population, CM survivors had a 32% higher risk of developing any SPM and demonstrated significantly elevated risks for 13 cancers: melanoma of the skin (standardized incidence ratio [SIR] 8.99), soft tissue (SIR 2.80), melanoma of the eye and orbit (SIR 2.64), nonepithelial skin (SIR 2.31), salivary gland (SIR 2.18), bone and joint (SIR 1.70), thyroid (SIR 1.90), kidney (SIR 1.29), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (SIR 1.29), brain and nervous system (SIR 1.31), non-Hodgkin lymphoma (SIR 1.25), prostate (SIR 1.13), and female breast (SIR 1.07). Risks of second primary melanoma of the skin, melanoma of the eye and orbit, and cancers of the prostate, soft tissue, salivary gland, and bone and joint were elevated throughout the study period, implying no surveillance bias.
Possible underreporting of CM incidence in cancer registries is a limitation. In addition, the lack of individual-level data in cancer registry data precludes detailed examination of coincident risk factors.
Risks of particular SPMs after CM may be explained by surveillance bias or shared risk factors. However, these probably do not explain the increased risks observed for prostate, soft tissue, salivary gland, and bone and joint cancers years after CM diagnosis. Further investigation into genetic or environmental commonalities between CM and these cancers is warranted.
了解皮肤黑色素瘤(CM)后发生第二原发恶性肿瘤(SPM)的风险模式对研究和临床实践都有意义,包括癌症筛查。
我们旨在描述 CM 后 SPM 的发生模式。
我们计算了 1973 年至 2003 年期间在 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results 计划数据中,16591 例 CM 幸存者在 130 万人年的观察中发生的 65 种不同 SPM 的发生率和相对风险。
与普通人群相比,CM 幸存者发生任何 SPM 的风险增加 32%,并显著增加了 13 种癌症的风险:皮肤黑色素瘤(标准化发病比 [SIR] 8.99)、软组织(SIR 2.80)、眼和眼眶黑色素瘤(SIR 2.64)、非上皮性皮肤(SIR 2.31)、唾液腺(SIR 2.18)、骨和关节(SIR 1.70)、甲状腺(SIR 1.90)、肾脏(SIR 1.29)、慢性淋巴细胞白血病(SIR 1.29)、脑和神经系统(SIR 1.31)、非霍奇金淋巴瘤(SIR 1.25)、前列腺(SIR 1.13)和女性乳房(SIR 1.07)。皮肤第二原发黑色素瘤、眼和眼眶黑色素瘤以及前列腺、软组织、唾液腺和骨和关节癌症的第二原发风险在整个研究期间均升高,这意味着没有监测偏倚。
癌症登记处可能存在 CM 发病率报告不足的情况,这是一个局限性。此外,癌症登记处数据中缺乏个体水平的数据,无法详细检查同时存在的危险因素。
CM 后发生特定 SPM 的风险可能是由于监测偏倚或共同危险因素所致。然而,这些可能无法解释在 CM 诊断多年后观察到的前列腺、软组织、唾液腺和骨和关节癌症的风险增加。有必要进一步研究 CM 和这些癌症之间是否存在遗传或环境的共同因素。
