Background
With improved cancer survivorship, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and other noncancer events compete with cancer as the underlying cause of death, but the risks of mortality in competing‐risk settings have not been well characterized.
Methods
The authors identified 21,637 individuals who had a first cancer registered between 2006 and 2013, with follow‐up to 2015, in the Australian population‐based...
Subsequent primary cancers (SPCs) compete with first cancers and non-cancer events as the primary cause of death among cancer patients. We aimed to assess temporal trends in SPC mortality since 1980 among adult-onset cancer patients in competing risk models.Patients registered with a first cancer in the population-based Tasmanian Cancer Registry, Australia, between 1980–2009 were followed up to December...
BACKGROUND
The authors' systematic review indicated an increasing trend in the risk of second primary cancers (SPCs) from the 1980s to 2000 when considering studies from the United States and Australia. It is uncertain whether this trend has continued to increase since 2000.
METHODS
The current study was a population‐based study of 51,802 individuals with adult‐onset cancers identified in the Tasmanian...
Background Cancer survivors are at risk of developing second and subsequent primary cancers, referred to as multiple primary cancers (MPCs). It is not clear whether the risk of MPCs has increased over recent decades, but increasing use of radiological imaging and potentially harmful effects of certain cancer treatments raise this possibility. A systematic review was undertaken to assess whether there...
