Construction, validation, and visualization of a web-based nomogram to predict survival in male breast cancer patients with second primary prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The advancement of early detection and treatment has brought about a significant concern for male breast cancer (MBC) survivors-the emergence of a second primary malignancy (SPM) poses a grave threat to their lives. Among them, second primary prostate cancer (spPCa) holds particular significance. This study aimed to investigate the impact of spPCa on the prognosis of MBC patients.

Methods

We performed a retrospective analysis using information from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database to investigate individuals diagnosed with MBC who also experienced an SPM between 2000 and 2020. Propensity score matching (PSM) was employed to balance the baseline characteristics of individuals with spPCa and those with second primary non-prostate cancer
