Survival of stage III non-seminoma testis cancer patients versus simulated controls, according to race/ethnicity. Int J Urol 2024.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is unknown whether 5-year overall survival (OS) differs and to what extent between the American Joint Committee on Cancer stage III non-seminoma testicular germ cell tumor (NS-TGCT) patients and simulated age-matched male population-based controls, according to race/ethnicity groups. METHODS We identified newly diagnosed (2004-2014) stage III NS-TGCT patients within the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results database 2004-2019. For each case, we simulated an age-matched male control (Monte Carlo simulation), relying on Social Security Administration (SSA) Life Tables with 5 years of follow-up. We compared OS rates between stage III NS-TGCT patients and simulated age-matched male population-based controls, according to race/ethnicity groups (Caucasian, Hispanic, Asian/Pacific Islander and African American). Both, cancer-specific mortality (CSM) and other-cause mortality (OCM) were computed. RESULTS Of 2054 stage III NS-TGCT patients, 60% were Caucasians versus 33% Hispanics versus 4% Asians/Pacific Islanders versus 3% African Americans. The 5-year OS difference between stage III NS-TGCT patients versus simulated age-matched male population-based controls was highest in Asians/Pacific Islanders (64 vs. 99%, Δ = 35%), followed by African Americans (66 vs. 97%, Δ = 31%), Hispanics (72 vs. 99%, Δ = 27%), and Caucasians (76 vs. 98%, Δ = 22%). The 5-year CSM rate was highest in Asians/Pacific Islanders (32%), followed by African Americans (26%), Hispanics (25%), and Caucasians (20%). The 5-year OCM rate was highest in African Americans (8%), followed by Caucasians (4%), Asians/Pacific Islanders (4%), and Hispanics (2%). CONCLUSION Relative to SSA Life Tables, the highest 5-year OS disadvantage applied to stage III NS-TGCT Asian/Pacific Islander race/ethnicity group, followed by African American, Hispanic and Caucasian, in that order.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is unknown whether five-year overall survival (OS) differs and to what extent between testicular germ-cell tumor (TGCT) patients and age-matched male population-based controls. MATERIALS We identified newly diagnosed (2004-2014) TGCT patients within Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results database 2004-2019. We compared OS between non-seminoma (NS-TGCT) and seminoma (S-TGCT) patients relative to age-matched male population-based controls based on Social Security Administration Life-Tables. Smoothed cumulative incidence plots displayed cancer-specific mortality (CSM) vs. other-cause mortality (OCM). RESULTS Of all 20,935 TGCT patients, 43% had NS-TGCT and 57% had S-TGCT. Of NS-TGCT patients, 63% were stage I vs. 16% stage II vs. 21% stage III. Of S-TGCT patients, 86% were stage I vs. 8% were stage II vs. 6% stage III. Five-year OS differences between NS-TGCT patients vs age-matched male population-based controls were 97 vs. 99% (Δ = 2%) for stage I, 96 vs. 99% (Δ = 3%) for stage II, 76 vs 98% (Δ = 22%) for stage III. Five-year OS differences between S-TGCT patients vs age-matched male population-based controls were 97 vs. 98% (Δ = 1%) for stage I, 95 vs. 97% (Δ = 2%) for stage II, 87 vs. 98% (Δ = 11%) for stage III. OCM rates ranged from 1 to 3% in NS-TGCT patients and from 2 to 4% in S-TGCT patients. CONCLUSION The OS difference between NS-TGCT patients vs. age-matched male population-based controls was invariably higher across all stages (2-22%) than for S-TGCT patients (1-11%). Reassuringly, OCM rates were marginal in stage I and stage II patients. Conversely, higher OCM rates were recorded in stage III patients.

The effect of race/ethnicity on cancer-specific mortality after salvage radical prostatectomy. Front Oncol 2022; 12:874945.

Abstract
Background To test the effect of race/ethnicity on cancer-specific mortality (CSM) after salvage radical prostatectomy (SRP). Material and methods We relied on the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database (SEER, 2004–2016) to identify SRP patients of all race/ethnicity background. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression models addressed CSM according to race/ethnicity. Results Of 426 assessable SRP patients, Caucasians accounted for 299 (69.9%) vs. 68 (15.9%) African-Americans vs. 39 (9.1%) Hispanics vs. 20 (4.7%) Asians. At diagnosis, African-Americans (64 years) were younger than Caucasians (66 years), but not younger than Hispanics (66 years) and Asians (67 years). PSA at diagnosis was significantly higher in African-Americans (13.2 ng/ml), Hispanics (13.0 ng/ml), and Asians (12.2 ng/ml) than in Caucasians (7.8 ng/ml, p = 0.01). Moreover, the distribution of African-Americans (10.3%–36.6%) and Hispanics (0%–15.8%) varied according to SEER region. The 10-year CSM was 46.5% in African-Americans vs. 22.4% in Caucasians vs. 15.4% in Hispanics vs. 15.0% in Asians. After multivariate adjustment (for age, clinical T stage, lymph node dissection status), African-American race/ethnicity was an independent predictor of higher CSM (HR: 2.2, p < 0.01), but not Hispanic or Asian race/ethnicity. The independent effect of African-American race/ethnicity did not persist after further adjustment for PSA. Conclusion African-Americans treated with SRP are at higher risk of CSM than other racial/ethnic groups and also exhibited the highest baseline PSA. The independent effect of African-American race/ethnicity on higher CSM no longer applies after PSA adjustment since higher PSA represents a distinguishing feature in African-American patients.
