Metastatic pattern of breast cancer according to immunohistochemical defined subtypes in the transitional phase of adjuvant trastuzumab treatment.

2014

e11581 Background: Prognosis of early breast cancer (BC) differs significantly upon subtypes (ST). Treatment with adjuvant trastuzumab improves outcome of HER2 overexpressing BC, however, less in k...

Synchronous Ovarian and Endometrial Cancer—an International Multicenter Case-Control Study

2013

ObjectivesThis study aimed to compare the prognosis of patients with synchronous endometrial and ovarian cancer (SEOC) to matched controls with either endometrial cancer (EC) or ovarian cancer (OC).MethodsA retrospective case-control study including all patients with SEOC who had been treated at 5 European tertiary gynecologic oncology centers between 1996 and 2011 and patients with either EC or OC matched for age, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage, histology, year of diagnosis, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance score.ResultsThe study cohort comprised 77, 132, and 126 patients with SEOC, EC, and OC, respectively. The patient characteristics …

786 Fertility-sparing and minimally invasive surgery in patients with stage I malignant ovarian germ cell tumours in Germany

2021

Introduction/Background* Malignant ovarian germ cell tumours (OGCT) often affect women of younger age at an early stage of disease who may desire fertility conservation. The Arbeitsgemeinschaft fuer Gynaekologische Onkologie (AGO) has established a clinicopathological (Current Ovarian geRm cell and SEx cord stromal Tumour Treatment strategies, CORSETT) database to describe treatment strategies and outcomes for these women. Methodology 20 German centres entered mixed retro- and prospective data of 56 FIGO stage I OGCT patients treated between 2000 to 2014 into the CORSETT database. An independent CORSETT pathology reference panel re-evaluated the primary histological diagnosis. A descriptive…

Multiple independent variants at the TERT locus are associated with telomere length and risks of breast and ovarian cancer

2013

Journal article TERT-locus SNPs and leukocyte telomere measures are reportedly associated with risks of multiple cancers. Using the Illumina custom genotyping array iCOGs, we analyzed ~480 SNPs at the TERT locus in breast (n = 103,991), ovarian (n = 39,774) and BRCA1 mutation carrier (n = 11,705) cancer cases and controls. Leukocyte telomere measurements were also available for 53,724 participants. Most associations cluster into three independent peaks. The minor allele at the peak 1 SNP rs2736108 associates with longer telomeres (P = 5.8 × 10!-7), lower risks for estrogen receptor (ER)-negative (P = 1.0 × 10!-8) and BRCA1 mutation carrier (P = 1.1 × 10!-5) breast cancers and altered promot…
