P126 epidemiology and risk factors of breast cancer in inflammatory bowel disease in the united states between 2014 and 2019: a population-based study

The risk of extra-colonic cancer in IBD is unclear. While thiopurines and tumour necrosis factor- α antagonists (anti-TNFs) are associated with increased risk of skin cancer and lymphoma in IBD, there is scant data on breast cancer in IBD. We evaluated the prevalence of breast cancer in IBD and investigated the role of biologics, immunomodulators, and clinical characteristics of IBD in patients with IBD and breast cancer.
