Project description:We examined the link between gestational biomarkers and breast cancer in 9169 daughters born into the Child Health and Development Studies from 1959 to 1967. We identified 137 breast cancer cases diagnosed by age 52 as of 2012. Markers of increased risk included higher placental volume and rapid 2nd trimester gestational weight gain. Protective markers were placental hemorrhage and fibrin deposition, indicators of resistance to placental trophoblast invasion. Paradoxically, higher ponderal index at birth was protective suggesting that fetal and placental pathways to breast cancer are multiple and distinct. Results link placental and fetal phenotypes to breast cancer, characterizing some as restrictive and others as permissive markers of tumor development. We found new biomarkers of breast cancer risk that can be mined to discover 'omic correlates in the pregnancy exposome using archived and contemporary pregnancy samples. This line of investigation may discover new pathways to risk and new opportunities for prevention.

Project description:Environmental exposures during pregnancy may increase breast cancer risk for mothers and female offspring. Tumor tissue assays may provide insight regarding the mechanisms. This study assessed the feasibility of obtaining tumor samples and pathology reports from mothers (F0) who were enrolled in the Child Health and Development Studies during pregnancy from 1959 to 1967 and their daughters (F1) who developed breast cancer over more than 50 years of follow-up. Breast cancer cases were identified through linkage to the California Cancer Registry and self-report. Written consent was obtained from 116 F0 and 95 F1 breast cancer survivors to access their pathology reports and tumor blocks. Of those contacted, 62% consented, 13% refused and 24% did not respond. We obtained tissue samples for 57% and pathology reports for 75%, and if diagnosis was made ⩽10 years we obtained tissue samples and pathology reports for 91% and 79%, respectively. Obtaining pathology reports and tumor tissues of two generations is feasible and will support investigation of the relationship between early-life exposures and molecular tumor markers. However, we found that more recent diagnosis increased the accessibility of tumor tissue. We recommend that cohorts request consent for obtaining future tumor tissues at study enrollment and implement real-time tissue collection to enhance success of collecting tumor samples and data.

Project description:Many suspected breast cancer risk factors, including the pesticide dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and its metabolite dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (DDE), are stored in fat where they could influence carcinogenesis. We tested the hypothesis that the relationship of DDT and DDE (DDTs) with adiposity is modified by disposition to develop breast cancer. We predicted that concentrations of serum DDTs would be inversely correlated with body mass index (BMI) during active exposure when DDTs move into the larger fat pool. We described this correlation at an average of 17 years before breast cancer was diagnosed, in a prospective nested case-control study in the Child Health and Development Studies. Women entered the study during pregnancy from 1959 to 1966 when DDT was in active use. In total, 133 breast cancer cases were diagnosed under the age of 50 as of 1998. Mean time to diagnosis was 17 years. In total, 133 controls were matched to cases on birth year. We observed the expected inverse correlation of serum DDTs with BMI only in women who remained cancer-free and not in women who ultimately developed breast cancer (p for interaction < 0.05). Findings suggest that vulnerability to breast cancer before the age of 50 may be associated with an uncoupling of the inverse correlation between BMI and serum DDTs. Investigation into mechanisms may eventually reveal early biomarkers of breast cancer risk.

Project description:This study prospectively investigates the contribution of pregnancy complications and other reproductive age risk factors on the risk of subsequent cardiovascular disease death. Participants were 14 403 women in the Child Health and Development Studies pregnancy cohort drawn from the Kaiser Permanente Health Plan in California. Only women with nonmissing parity and no previously diagnosed heart conditions were included. A total of 481 had observed preeclampsia, and 266 died from cardiovascular disease. The median age at enrollment was 26 years, and the median follow-up time was 37 years. Cardiovascular disease death was determined by linkage with the California Department of Vital Statistics. Observed preeclampsia was independently associated with cardiovascular disease death (mutually adjusted hazard ratio: 2.14 [95% CI: 1.29 to 3.57]). The risk of subsequent cardiovascular disease death was notably higher among women with onset of preeclampsia by 34 weeks of gestation (hazard ratio: 9.54 [95% CI: 4.50 to 20.26]). At 30 years of follow-up and a median age of 56 years, the cumulative cardiovascular disease death survival for women with early preeclampsia was 85.9% compared with 98.3% for women with late preeclampsia and 99.3% for women without preeclampsia. Women with preeclampsia had an increased risk of cardiovascular disease death later in life, independent of other measured risk factors. These findings reinforce previously reported recommendations that a history of preeclampsia should be used to target women at risk for cardiovascular disease. Additionally, women with preeclampsia earlier in pregnancy may be particularly at risk for cardiovascular disease death and could be targeted for early and intensive screening and intervention.

Project description:BackgroundBreast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in women and incidence rates are increasing; metabolomics may be a promising approach for identifying the drivers of the increasing trends that cannot be explained by changes in known BC risk factors.MethodsWe conducted a nested case-control study (median followup 6.3 years) within the New York site of the Breast Cancer Family Registry (BCFR) (n = 40 cases and 70 age-matched controls). We conducted a metabolome-wide association study using untargeted metabolomics coupling hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) and C18 chromatography with high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) to identify BC-related metabolic features.ResultsWe found eight metabolic features associated with BC risk. For the four metabolites negatively associated with risk, the adjusted odds ratios (ORs) ranged from 0.31 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.14, 0.66) (L-Histidine) to 0.65 (95% CI: 0.43, 0.98) (N-Acetylgalactosamine), and for the four metabolites positively associated with risk, ORs ranged from 1.61 (95% CI: 1.04, 2.51, (m/z: 101.5813, RT: 90.4, 1,3-dibutyl-1-nitrosourea, a potential carcinogen)) to 2.20 (95% CI: 1.15, 4.23) (11-cis-Eicosenic acid). These results were no longer statistically significant after adjusting for multiple comparisons. Adding the BC-related metabolic features to a model, including age, the Breast and Ovarian Analysis of Disease Incidence and Carrier Estimation Algorithm (BOADICEA) risk score improved the accuracy of BC prediction from an area under the curve (AUC) of 66% to 83%.ConclusionsIf replicated in larger prospective cohorts, these findings offer promising new ways to identify exposures related to BC and improve BC risk prediction.

Project description:BackgroundThe recommended starting dose of eribulin in patients with hepatic impairment is based on the Child-Pugh score, largely informed by a pharmacokinetic study of 18 patients. In the pivotal studies of eribulin in metastatic breast cancer (Study 301 and Study 305 [EMBRACE]), entry criteria and dose modifications were based on liver-function test (LFT) results rather than Child-Pugh score. In populations such as patients with metastatic breast cancer, in which metastatic infiltration is the predominant cause of hepatic impairment, using Child-Pugh score may be problematic; in clinical practice, it has been more common for oncologists to make dosing decisions based on LFTs. To address this, the effects of abnormal baseline LFT results on eribulin efficacy and safety were investigated.MethodsIn this pooled post hoc analysis, 1062 patients who were randomized to receive eribulin in Studies 301 and 305 were divided into 4 groups: (A) no elevated LFT results (no liver impairment); (B) increased levels of aspartate aminotransferase and/or alanine aminotransferase; (C) decreased albumin and/or increased levels of aspartate aminotransferase and/or alanine aminotransferase but not increased bilirubin; and (D) increased bilirubin. Patients were subcategorized by presence of liver metastasis. Drug exposure, dose intensity, and treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were analyzed.ResultsEribulin mesylate mean dosage was 0.82 (group A)-0.65 mg/m2/week (group D). Group D had shorter treatment, more dose reductions/delays, more TEAEs leading to dose modifications, and numerically lower objective response rates and clinical benefit rates versus groups A-C. TEAE rates leading to dose modification were similar between group D (45.5%) and groups A-C (range, 43.5-54.9%) in the absence of liver metastases, but higher in group D (91.3%) compared with groups A-C (range, 41.7-54.3%) if liver metastases were present.ConclusionsMild elevations in bilirubin levels were associated with increased toxicity and a greater requirement for dose modifications. Based both on these study data and existing recommendations, we propose a novel scheme to guide initial dose selection in patients with metastatic breast cancer and hepatic impairment that is based on LFTs rather than Child-Pugh score.

Project description:BackgroundPhysical activity is generally associated with better outcomes following diagnosis; however, few studies have evaluated change in pre- to postdiagnosis activity and repeated measures of activity by intensity and type.MethodsWe evaluated physical activity and survival following a breast cancer diagnosis in the Nurses' Health Study and Nurses' Health Study II (n = 9308 women, n = 1973 deaths). Physical activity was evaluated as updated cumulative average of metabolic equivalent of task (MET)-h/wk (assigned per activity based on duration and intensity) and change in pre- to postdiagnosis activity. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).ResultsHigher postdiagnosis activity was inversely associated with breast cancer-specific mortality in categories from ≥9 MET-h/wk (vs <3 MET h/wk, HR≥9 to <18 = 0.74 [95% CI = 0.55 to 0.99]; HR≥27 = 0.69 [95% CI = 0.50 to 0.95]; Ptrend = .04) and all-cause mortality from ≥3 MET-h/wk (HR≥3 to <9 = 0.73 [95% CI = 0.61 to 0.88]; HR≥27 = 0.51 [95% CI = 0.41 to 0.63]; Ptrend < .001). Associations were predominantly observed for estrogen receptor-positive tumors and in postmenopausal women. Walking was associated with lower risk of all-cause mortality (≥9 vs <3 MET-h/wk, HR= 0.69 [95% CI = 0.57 to 0.84]) as was strength training. Relative to stable activity pre- to postdiagnosis (±3 MET-h/wk), increases from ≥3 to 9 MET-h/wk were associated with lower all-cause mortality risk (Ptrend < .001). Results were robust to adjustment for prediagnosis physical activity.ConclusionsPhysical activity was associated with lower risk of death following diagnosis. Increased pre- to postdiagnosis activity corresponding to at least 1-3 h/wk of walking was associated with lower risk of death. These results provide further impetus for women to increase their activity after a breast cancer diagnosis, though reverse causation cannot be fully excluded.
