Associations between hematopoietic growth factors and risks of venous thromboembolism, stroke, ischemic heart disease and myelodysplastic syndrome: findings from a large population-based cohort of women with breast cancer
Conclusions Receipts of CSFs and ESAs were significantly associated with an increased risk of VTE in women with breast cancer. Use of ESAs was significantly associated with substantially increased risks of MDS. These findings support those of previous studies.

Update on Breast Cancer Risk Reduction Therapy
Abstract In women at increased risk of breast cancer age ≥35 years, the selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) tamoxifen should be discussed as an option to reduce the risk of estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer. In postmenopausal women, raloxifene, anastrozole, and exemestane should also be discussed as options for breast cancer risk reduction. Risk reduction with SERMs continues for at least 10 years in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women. Tamoxifen is not recommended for women with a history of deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolus, stroke, transient ischemic attack, or during prol...

Abstract P2-01-23: Long-term follow-up of persistent breast dermopigmentation after sentinel lymph node identification using superparamagnetic iron oxide particles (SIENNA+(R))
Patients with breast cancer (BC) and those at high risk for BC are often reluctant to initiate Tamoxifen (Tam) due to potential adverse events (AEs) such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolus (PE), acute ischemic stroke (AIS), myocardial infarction (MI) and endometrial cancer (EC). Some decline this life saving therapy due to fear of AEs. AE rates from RCTs are low, but AE rates in the general population are not well documented.Methods: The MarketScanR database (2010-2013) was searched for patients aged 30-64 with a prescription of Tam active for more than 120 days. Patients with prior DVT, PE, AIS, MI or EC wer...

Increased risk of arterial thromboembolism in older men with breast cancer
ConclusionsWe provide population-based evidence that male breast cancer patients have a substantially elevated risk of ATE in the first year following a cancer diagnosis compared with matched controls. Care providers should consider this heightened risk when evaluating cardiovascular health in men with a recent breast cancer diagnosis.

Risk of Cardiovascular Diseases Among Older Breast Cancer Survivors in the United States: A Matched Cohort Study.
CONCLUSIONS: Women with a history of breast cancer were at increased risk of several CVDs, persisting into survivorship. Monitoring and managing cardiovascular risk throughout the long-term follow-up of women diagnosed with breast cancer should be a priority. PMID: 33401236 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Menopausal Hormone Replacement Therapy and Reduction of All-Cause Mortality and Cardiovascular Disease: It Is About Time and Timing
Cancer J. 2022 May-Jun 01;28(3):208-223. doi: 10.1097/PPO.0000000000000591.ABSTRACTThe totality of evidence indicates menopausal hormone replacement therapy (HRT) effects are determined by timing of initiation according to age and/or time since menopause, underlying health of target tissue, and duration of therapy. Initiated in women at younger than 60 years and/or at or near menopause, HRT significantly reduces all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD), whereas other primary CVD prevention therapies such as lipid-lowering fail to do so. The magnitude and type of HRT-associated risks, including breast cancer, st...

Individual Benefits and Risks of Intravaginal Estrogen and Systemic Testosterone in the Management of Women in the Menopause, With a Discussion of Any Associated Risks for Cancer Development
Cancer J. 2022 May-Jun 01;28(3):196-203. doi: 10.1097/PPO.0000000000000598.ABSTRACTSeveral formulations of intravaginal oestrogen are available for the treatment of genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM). These are safe and effective treatments for the symptoms of GSM. Licensed doses of intravaginal oestrogen do not elevate systemic estradiol levels above the normal postmenopausal range with long term use and there is no evidence of an increased risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, thromboembolism, colorectal cancer, endometrial cancer, breast cancer or breast cancer recurrence with their use. This should reassure bo...
