Influence of Comorbidities and Inflammatory Biomarkers in Disparities in Ovarian Cancer Treatment, Treatment Response, and Survival

This project examines racial and ethnic disparities in ovarian cancer patients diagnosed and treated in KPNC from 2000 to 2023. It is an ancillary study to an NCI-funded research project (R01 CA243188) led by MPIs Kushi, Doherty (University of Utah), Bandera (Rutgers University), and Gomez (UCSF). This is the largest multiethnic cohort of ovarian cancer survival to date to examine clinical and medical care; neighborhood and geospatial factors; reclassification of subtypes with updated information; and, in a subset of cases, tumor characteristics. This ancillary study extends this project with collection of pre-diagnostic information to explore the role of comorbid conditions. It also supports additional tumor assays examining inflammation markers in contributing to disparities in ovarian cancer outcomes.

Racial/Ethnic Disparities in Ovarian Cancer Treatment and Survival: An Integrative Approach

We reported previously that African American and Hispanic women have worse survival after ovarian cancer diagnosis than white women, and Asian women have similar survival. We will investigate reasons for these disparities, focusing on tumor subtypes, health care, and neighborhood-level factors.

Breast White Adipose Tissue Inflammation and Breast Cancer Outcomes

We will assess the incidence and severity of breast white adipose tissue (B-WAT) inflammation in mastectomy specimens from approximately 1,900 Pathways Study participants to examine associations of various factors with B-WAT inflammation incidence and severity at the time of breast cancer surgery, and to examine whether B-WAT inflammation impacts breast cancer recurrence, second primary breast cancer, and breast cancer progression-free survival. We will also investigate the associations of inflammatory blood biomarkers, body composition, and lifestyle factors such as diet and physical activity with B-WAT inflammation and severity. This collaborative project includes investigators at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Weill Cornell Medical College, where Dr. Andrew Dannenberg, who co-leads this project, is located.

Kaiser Permanente Interregional Cancer Statistics Project

A Kaiser Permanente interregional cancer statistics report will be developed to include incidence and 5-year relative survival rates for breast, colorectal, and lung cancer. The development of new mortality measures will be explored, along with improved routine capture and reporting of these measures. Work will include a landscape review of current procedures and methods used by regional cancer committees to generate region-specific reports; generation of estimates of cancer-specific mortality and all-cause mortality; and assessment of interregional available death and cause of death data. Finally, sustainable reporting processes will be created to enhance the organization’s ability to produce this report on an annual basis.

Geospatial, Multilevel, and Contextual Approaches in Cancer Control and Population Sciences

This funding expands on neighborhood resources developed under the U01 grant (geocoded residential histories, linkage to census and area databases, virtual neighborhood audits). Aim 1: Develop methods to use remote sensing data and machine learning techniques to characterize neighborhood attributes (e.g., green space, proximity to blue space, night-time light) and enhance the neighborhood infrastructure of the Pathways Study cohort. Aim 2: Demonstrate their applicability by examining the impact of social and built environment attributes on allostatic load among the Pathways cohort of breast cancer survivors. This work provides an opportunity to apply a comprehensive suite of neighborhood attributes to better understand multilevel factors and outcomes in breast cancer survivors.

Germline and Tumor Genomic Analyses of Breast Cancer in Latinas

​This project expands a consortium of studies examining germline genetic mutations in breast cancer risk in Latinas. It builds on a study that will include approximately 550 Latina women with breast cancer in the Pathways Study; genetic data from Latina women without breast cancer will be contributed from Kaiser Permanente Northern California’s Research Program on Genes, Environment and Health. Led by Susan Neuhausen, PhD, of City of Hope, and Elad Ziv, MD, of UC San Francisco, this project further incorporates Latina cases and controls from studies led by Dr. Neuhausen. While this project includes investigation of tumor DNA, Pathways Study and Kaiser Permanente Northern California participants will not be included in that aspect.

Adolescent and Young Adult Female Cancer Survivors – Cancer Experience Survey

​​This study aims to: 1) assess reproductive intentions and receipt of fertility counseling or preservation in relation to post-diagnosis birth outcomes among adolescent and young adult cancer survivors in North Carolina and the Kaiser Permanente Northern California and Kaiser Permanente Southern California health systems; 2) examine infertility, pregnancy loss history, and use of infertility services among adolescent and young adult cancer survivors within those health systems compared to the U.S. general population; and 3) examine the frequency of self-reported cancer recurrence among adolescent and young adult female cancer survivors in North Carolina and in those health systems, and examine the impact of cancer recurrence on post-diagnosis birth rates. Current recommendations for when to attempt pregnancy after cancer diagnosis (typically two to five years) are often based on identified periods of highest cancer recurrence risk, rather than optimal timing for achieving pregnancy, but recurrence information is rarely available.

End-of-Life Care for Adolescents and Young Adults with Cancer: An Evaluation of Care and Development of Patient-Centered Quality Measures

This project examines aspects of end-of-life care for people diagnosed with adolescent and young adult cancers (ages 15 to 39 years). Current measures of end-of-life care quality were designed for older adults; a coherent set of measures to characterize high-quality end-of-life care for adolescent and young adult cancer patients does not exist. This study seeks to answer the questions: What is the quality of end-of-life care for adolescents and young adults with cancer, and what is a patient-centered definition of high-quality end-of-life care for adolescents and young adults facing terminal illness? The aims of this project are to examine the quality of end-of-life care in adolescent and young adult cancer patients, identify sources of variation in end-of-life care, and develop a set of indicators of end-of-life care quality suitable for adolescent and young adult cancers. Data from about 1,800 patients diagnosed from 2000 to 2015 with adolescent and young adult cancers in Kaiser Permanente Northern California and Kaiser Permanente Southern California will be included in data-only aspects, with in-depth interviews of patients, family members, and providers from these Kaiser Permanente regions and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute to better identify factors that may improve end-of-life care quality. This project is led by Dr. Jennifer Mack at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute.

Obesity, Chemotherapy Dosing, and Breast Cancer Outcomes

Body size is associated with survival in women with breast cancer in complicated ways. Chemotherapy to treat breast cancer is typically dosed based on body size, often as a function of body surface area. Previously, there was concern that obese patients may receive doses of chemotherapy that may be too toxic given their higher body surface area, resulting in dose capping. This has resulted in the suggestion that obese women were receiving less-than-optimal doses for cancer treatment. Indeed, in 2012, the American Society of Clinical Oncology recommended that doses of chemotherapy not be capped. This project, enabled by availability of detailed infusion data, examines the impact of body size on chemotherapy dosing and subsequent outcomes. The project builds upon pilot work conducted in the Pathways Study cohort of 4,505 women with breast cancer, expands to other women with electronic data only, and includes over 4,000 women with breast cancer at Kaiser Permanente Washington. This project is led by Dr. Elizabeth Kantor at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

Clinical Pregnancy Outcomes in Adolescent and Young Adult Female Cancer Survivors

Post-diagnosis fertility is a critical issue for adolescent and young adult cancer survivors (diagnosed at age 15 to 39 years), with little information on the impact of cancer diagnosis and treatment on pregnancy outcomes. This study focuses on five leading cancer types among female adolescent and young adult cancer survivors: breast, melanoma, thyroid, and Hodgkins and non-Hodgkins lymphomas. We will analyze North Carolina state-wide cancer registry data linked to claims and offspring birth records from 2003 to 2012, as well as data from Kaiser Permanente Northern California (KPNC) and Kaiser Permanente Southern California (KPSC) for 2000 to 2016. Study aims include assessment of adverse pregnancy outcome risk among 7,200 female adult and young adult cancer survivors at KPNC and KPSC, with 1,300 births, matched five-to-one to 36,000 women without a prior cancer diagnosis on age and enrollment year. Adverse pregnancy outcome risk will also be assessed among 8,000 female adult and young adult cancer survivors in North Carolina, matched five-to-one on maternal age, state, and delivery year. Additionally, the impact of fertility preservation counseling and use on risk of adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes will be evaluated.

Infrastructure for Pathways, a Prospective Study of Breast Cancer Survivorship

This grant provides core infrastructure support for the Pathways Study (Kushi, PI), a prospective cohort study of breast cancer survivorship and prognosis. Since 2006, the study enrolled 4,505 women diagnosed with invasive breast cancer in KPNC. Activities (Ambrosone, Christine, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Co-PI) include ongoing follow-up of participants, active and passive ascertainment of outcomes, collection of tumor specimens, linkage to KPNC electronic records, enhancement of area-level data from contextual databases through virtual neighborhood audits, provision of genotypic data from genome-wide assays, and establishment of a community and participant advisory board. These activities enhance the Pathways Study to make it an unparalleled, outstanding resource for studies of breast cancer prognosis.
