Population Based Registry

Abstract Introduction: Most of the knowledge about treatments and outcome of CML patients originates from clinical studies. To get new and unbiased insights in the epidemiology, treatment and outcome of CML, the EUTOS population-based registry of newly diagnosed CML patients was established, - as part of the European Treatment and Outcome Study (EUTOS) for CML. The aim was to collect the data of all adults with newly diagnosed CML, irrespective of treatment and of enrolment in studies. Patients and Methods: The EUTOS population-based registry collected data of newly diagnosed CML patients, 18 years or older, over a specified period of time from 2008 till 2012 living in defined regions. The data were collected by 22 study groups in 20 European countries. Data were gathered via a web-based CRF-system. For comparison we used the already published data from five Company-sponsored registration studies IRIS (O’Brien et.all, NEJM, 2003), TOPS (Cortes et al, JCO, 2009) ENESTnd (Saglio et al, NEJM, 2010), DASISION (Kantarjian et al, NEJM, 2010) and BELA (Cortes et al, JCO, 2012), from three Investigator-sponsored studies GIMEMA (Castagnetti et al, JCO, 2010 and Gugliotta et al, Blood, 2011), French SPIRIT (Preudhomme et al, NEJM, 2010) and German CML IV (Hehlmann et al, JCO, 2011) and from two single referral centers HAMMERSMITH (De Lavallade et al, JCO, 2008) and MDA (Jain et al, Blood, 2013). Results: Till 15.05.2014 2978 patients were registered in the EUTOS Population-based registry. 94.3% of the patients were diagnosed in chronic phase (CP), 3.6% in accelerated phase (AP), and 2.2% in blastic phase (BP). For the calculation of the prognostic scores 361 patients had to be excluded because they were pretreated. For the comparison we used 2350 patients in Chronic Phase with laboratory values before any treatment. 54% of the patients in the EUTOS Population-based registry were male, less than in all studies (56.6 - 60.6%). The median age at diagnosis was 56 years, higher than in all studies (46 - 55). In EUTOS the proportion of patients more than 60 years and more than 65 years old was 40.4 % and 21.9 % respectively. Similar data were rarely reported in all other studies. Median value of the spleen size below costal margin was 0. 46.1% of the patients had a palpable spleen and 15.2% had a spleen size ≥ 10 (spleen size is always reported in cm under costal margin in this abstract). The % of palpable spleen is only reported by IRIS, 25.0% and by the FRENCH Spirit group, 49.8%. The median spleen is only reported by GIMEMA, 2.0. Spleen size ≥ 10 is reported by IRIS, 6.0%, ENESTnd, 12.4% and HAMMERSMITH 25.5%. While the median values for Platelets and Hemoglobin show no big differences, the median WBC in EUTOS is 83.9 x109/l and in the Company-sponsored registration studies: IRIS 18-20 x109/l , in ENESTnd 23-26 x109/l, in DASISION 23-25 x109/l , and in BELA 22-23 x109/l, in the Investigator-sponsored studies: GIMEMA 55 x109/l , in the FRENCH SPIRIT 83-104 x109/l , in the GERMAN CML IV 75-91 x109/l , and in the single referral center study HAMMERSMITH 140 x109/l, clearly indicating that in company-sponsored, registration studies, the reported values of the WBC were not recorded prior to any treatment. The median values for Blasts, Basophils and Eosinophils show also not so big differences. The % of Sokal low risk patients is in EUTOS with 34.5% lower than in all studies (35.2 - 60%) with the exception of HAMMERSMITH 28.9%. Discussion: The EUTOS Population-based registry provides the first European wide real-world series of patients with newly diagnosed Ph+, BCR-ABL+ CML. The age and sex distribution and some baseline characteristics such as Sokal Score as well as median WBC count in the EUTOS population-based registry are different from many prospective studies. This should be taken in due consideration before extrapolating the results of treatment studies to real life. Spleen size, which is known as an important value for prediction, is only very rarely reported in clinical studies. With further follow-up, this registry will provide a population-based insight on treatment, survival, and causes of death.

The Us

Background: Rivaroxaban is a novel oral anticoagulant approved in the US in 2011 for prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). Information on risks and benefits among rivaroxaban users in real-world populations is limited. Methods: We used data from the US MarketScan Commercial and Medicare Supplemental databases between 2010 and 2013. We selected patients with a history of NVAF and initiating rivaroxaban or warfarin. Rivaroxaban users were matched with up to 5 warfarin users by age, sex, database enrollment date and drug initiation date. Ischemic stroke, intracranial bleeding (ICB), myocardial infarction (MI), and gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding outcomes were defined by ICD-9-CM codes in an inpatient claim after drug initiation date. Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess the association between rivaroxaban vs. warfarin use and outcomes adjusting for age, sex, and CHA2DS2-VASc score. Separate models were used to compare a) new rivaroxaban users with new warfarin users, and b) switchers from warfarin to rivaroxaban to continuous warfarin users. Results: Our analysis included 34,998 rivaroxaban users matched to 102,480 warfarin users with NVAF (39% female, mean age 71), in which 487 ischemic strokes, 179 ICB, 647 MI, and 1353 GI bleeds were identified during a mean follow-up of 9 months. Associations of rivaroxaban vs warfarin were similar in new users and switchers; therefore we pooled both analyses. Rivaroxaban users had lower rates of ICB (hazard ratio (HR) (95% confidence interval (CI)) = 0.72 (0.46, 1.12))) and ischemic stroke (HR (95% CI) = 0.88 (0.68, 1.13)), but higher rates of GI bleeding (HR (95% CI) = 1.15 (1.01, 1.33)) when compared to warfarin users (table). Conclusion: In this large population-based study of NVAF patients, rivaroxaban users had a non-significant lower risk of ICB and ischemic stroke than warfarin users, but a higher risk of GI bleeding. These real-world findings are comparable to results reported in published clinical trials.

e18710 Background: With the advent of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi), options for first-line (1L) maintenance therapy in ovarian cancer (OC) have evolved in the US. This study described the use of 1L maintenance and assessed predictors of 1L maintenance use among PARPi-eligible patients (pts) with OC in a real-world setting. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included pts with newly diagnosed stage III/IV epithelial OC who received 6–9 cycles of 1L platinum-based chemotherapy (PBC) and primary or interval debulking surgery following neoadjuvant chemotherapy between Jan 1, 2016, and Feb 29, 2020, from the nationwide Flatiron Health electronic health record–derived deidentified database. The end of the last cycle of 1L PBC was defined as the index date. Those pts who started second-line chemotherapy within 2 months of the index date were excluded. Logistic regression was used to analyze variables with regard to 1L maintenance use. Results: In total, 463 pts were included; 21% received maintenance therapy, 79% received active surveillance. Baseline characteristics are shown in the table. Overall maintenance therapy use increased over the study period, from 7.7% to 37.7%. Pts with BRCA wild type were significantly less likely to receive maintenance therapy (odds ratio [OR]: 0.30; 95% CI, 0.16–0.59) than pts with BRCA mutation. Pts treated in 2018 (OR: 2.73; 95% CI, 1.25–5.98) and 2019 (OR: 8.78; 95% CI, 4.15–18.55) were significantly more likely to receive maintenance therapy than pts treated in 2017. Age, race, practice type, ECOG score, and residual disease status were not significant predictors of 1L maintenance use. Conclusions: Nearly 40% of pts with advanced stage OC received upfront maintenance therapy with an increasing trend over time, particularly in those with biomarker guidance. Research is warranted toward addressing barriers to the appropriate use of maintenance therapy.[Table: see text]

88 Background: Five-year survival after a diagnosis of ovarian cancer (OC) is < 45% and women often ask what they can do, beyond following the recommended treatment, to improve their chance of survival. The OPAL Study addresses the question of whether lifestyle choices during or after treatment could positively impact quality of life (QoL) and, ultimately, survival. Methods: OPAL is a prospective study of Australian women newly diagnosed with primary OC from 2012-15 who agreed to complete questionnaires at baseline, 3, 6, 9, 12, 24, 36 & 48 months after diagnosis. Baseline data include sociodemographic, reproductive & hormonal, medical & family history, and lifestyle (diet, alcohol, smoking, physical activity, sitting time) information. At follow-up, women are asked about their current lifestyle, medication and complementary therapy use, and a range of patient-reported outcomes including the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Insomnia Severity Index and FACT instruments for ovarian cancer, neurotoxicity and fatigue. 85% also provided a blood sample at recruitment and/or 12 months after diagnosis. Detailed treatment and outcome data are collected annually from medical records. Results: Of 1451 eligible women identified, 219 were excluded and 274 declined leaving a cohort of 958; 72% have high-grade serous and 72% advanced stage disease. Follow-up is now close to 36 months with questionnaire response rates of 85-95% among active participants. At October 2017, we had received 734, 751, 636, 434 and 225 questionnaires at 6, 12, 24, 36 and 48 months, respectively; women have completed a mean of 5 questionnaires (range 1-8). A total of 558 (58%) have experienced disease progression or recurrence, 332 (35%) have died and 300 are still active in the study. The proportion of women reporting clinical levels of anxiety ranges from 6-9% at each time-point, depression from 5-7%, insomnia from 9-14% and fatigue from 30-57%. Conclusions: This is the first prospective study to collect detailed lifestyle, QoL, clinical and outcome information from a large population-based cohort of women newly diagnosed with OC. It provides a valuable resource to identify relationships between potentially modifiable aspects of lifestyle and outcomes (QoL & survival) in women with OC.
