Abstract
Background Nomegestrol acetate (NOMAC) is a synthetic potent progestogen. This study aimed to assess the risk of intracranial meningioma associated with the prolonged use of NOMAC. Methods Observational cohort study using SNDS data (France). Women included had ≥ one dispensing of NOMAC between 2007 and 2017 (no dispensing in 2006). Exposure was defined as a cumulative dose >150 mg NOMAC within six months after first dispensing. A control group of women (cumulative dose ≤150 mg) was assembled. The outcome was surgery (resection or decompression) or radiotherapy for one or more intracranial meningioma(s). Poisson models assessed the relative risk (RR) of meningioma. Findings In total, 1,060,779 women were included in the cohort (535,115 in the exposed group and 525,664 in the control group). The incidence of meningioma in the two groups was 19.3 and 7.0 per 100,000 person-years, respectively (age-adjusted RRa = 2.9 [2.4-3.7]). The RRa for a cumulative dose of more than 6 g NOMAC was 12.0 [9.9-16.0]. In the event of treatment discontinuation for at least one year, the risk of meningioma was identical to that in the control group (RRa = 1.0 [0.8-1.3]). The location of meningiomas in the anterior and middle part of the skull base was more frequent with exposure to NOMAC. Interpretation We observed a strong dose-dependent association between prolonged use of NOMAC and the risk of intracranial meningiomas. These results are comparable to those obtained for cyproterone acetate, although the magnitude of the risk is lower. It is now recommended to stop using NOMAC if a meningioma is diagnosed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the risk of intracranial meningioma associated with the use of selected progestogens. DESIGN National case-control study. SETTING French National Health Data System (ie, Système National des Données de Santé). PARTICIPANTS Of 108 366 women overall, 18 061 women living in France who had intracranial surgery for meningioma between 1 January 2009 and 31 December 2018 (restricted inclusion periods for intrauterine systems) were deemed to be in the case group. Each case was matched to five controls for year of birth and area of residence (90 305 controls). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Selected progestogens were used: progesterone, hydroxyprogesterone, dydrogesterone, medrogestone, medroxyprogesterone acetate, promegestone, dienogest, and intrauterine levonorgestrel. For each progestogen, use was defined by at least one dispensation within the year before the index date (within three years for 13.5 mg levonorgestrel intrauterine systems and five years for 52 mg). Conditional logistic regression was used to calculate odds ratio for each progestogen meningioma association. RESULTS Mean age was 57.6 years (standard deviation 12.8). Analyses showed excess risk of meningioma with use of medrogestone (42 exposed cases/18 061 cases (0.2%) v 79 exposed controls/90 305 controls (0.1%), odds ratio 3.49 (95% confidence interval 2.38 to 5.10)), medroxyprogesterone acetate (injectable, 9/18 061 (0.05%) v 11/90 305 (0.01%), 5.55 (2.27 to 13.56)), and promegestone (83/18 061 (0.5%) v 225/90 305 (0.2 %), 2.39 (1.85 to 3.09)). This excess risk was driven by prolonged use (≥one year). Results showed no excess risk of intracranial meningioma for progesterone, dydrogesterone, or levonorgestrel intrauterine systems. No conclusions could be drawn concerning dienogest or hydroxyprogesterone because of the small number of individuals who received these drugs. A highly increased risk of meningioma was observed for cyproterone acetate (891/18 061 (4.9%) v 256/90 305 (0.3%), odds ratio 19.21 (95% confidence interval 16.61 to 22.22)), nomegestrol acetate (925/18 061 (5.1%) v 1121/90 305 (1.2%), 4.93 (4.50 to 5.41)), and chlormadinone acetate (628/18 061 (3.5%) v 946/90 305 (1.0%), 3.87 (3.48 to 4.30)), which were used as positive controls for use. CONCLUSIONS Prolonged use of medrogestone, medroxyprogesterone acetate, and promegestone was found to increase the risk of intracranial meningioma. The increased risk associated with the use of injectable medroxyprogesterone acetate, a widely used contraceptive, and the safety of levonorgestrel intrauterine systems are important new findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Meningiomas are the most common primary tumours of the central nervous system. This study aimed to provide comprehensive nationwide estimates on the incidence, prevalence and prognostic impact of meningioma diagnosis in the Netherlands. METHODS Adult patients diagnosed with meningioma in 2000-2019 were selected from the Dutch Brain Tumour Registry (DBTR), part of the Netherlands Cancer Registry (NCR). Time trends in age-adjusted incidence and prevalence rates were evaluated using the estimated annual percentage change (EAPC). Relative survival rates were calculated using the Pohar Perme estimator. Case completeness of the DBTR/NCR was estimated through record linkage with one of the Dutch neuro-oncology centres. RESULTS From a total of 23,454 cases of meningioma, 11,306 (48.2%) were histologically confirmed and 12,148 (51.8%) were radiological diagnoses. Over time, the incidence of diagnosis increased from 46.9 per 1,000,000 inhabitants (European Standardized Rate [ESR]) to 107.3 (EAPC 4.7%, p < 0.01), with an increase in the incidence of radiological diagnoses from 14.0 to 70.2 per 1,000,000 ESR (EAPC 9.1%, p < 0.01). The prevalence of meningioma was estimated at 1012/1,000,000 on 1 January 2020, with almost 17,800 individuals having had a diagnosis of meningioma. Relative survival rate at 10 years for grade 1 meningiomas was 91.0% (95% confidence interval [CI] 89.4%-92.3%), 71.3% (95% CI 66.8%-75.2%) for grade 2 meningiomas and 36.4% (95% CI 27.3%-45.6%) for grade 3 meningiomas. Local case completeness was estimated at 97.6% for histologically confirmed meningiomas and 84.5% for radiological diagnoses. CONCLUSION With a near-complete registry, meningioma prevalence was estimated at over 1000 per 1,000,000 inhabitants.

Abstract
Background There is no consensus on the management of incidental meningiomas. The literature on long-term growth dynamics is sparse and the natural history of these tumors remains to be illuminated. Methods We prospectively assessed long-term tumor growth dynamics and survival rates during active monitoring of 62 patients (45 female, mean age 63.9 years) harboring 68 tumors. Clinical and radiological data were obtained every 6 months for 2 years, annually until 5 years, then every second year. Results The natural progression of incidental meningiomas during 12 years of monitoring was growth (P < .001). However, mean growth decelerated at 1.5 years and became insignificant after 8 years. Self-limiting growth patterns were seen in 43 (63.2%) tumors, non-decelerating in 20 (29.4%) and 5 (7.4%) were inconclusive due to ≤ 2 measurements. Decelerating growth persisted once established. Within 5 years, 38 (97.4%) of 39 interventions were initiated. None developed symptoms prior to intervention. Large tumors (P < .001) involving venous sinuses (P = .039) grew most aggressively. Since inclusion 19 (30.6%) patients have died of unrelated causes and 2 (3%) from grade 2 meningiomas. Conclusion Active monitoring seems a safe and appropriate first-line management of incidental meningiomas. Intervention was avoided in > 40% with indolent tumors in this cohort. Treatment was not compromised by tumor growth. Clinical follow-up seems sufficient beyond 5 years if self-limiting growth is established. Steady or accelerating growth warrant monitoring until they reach a stable state or intervention is initiated.

Abstract
PURPOSE To report the results of systematic meningioma screening program implemented by French authorities in patients exposed to progestin therapies (cyproterone (CPA), nomegestrol (NA), and chlormadinone (CMA) acetate). METHODS We conducted a prospective monocentric study on patients who, between September 2018 and April 2021, underwent standardized MRI (injection of gadolinium, then a T2 axial FLAIR and a 3D-T1 gradient-echo sequence) for meningioma screening. RESULTS Of the 210 included patients, 15 (7.1%) had at least one meningioma; seven (7/15, 47%) had multiple meningiomas. Meningiomas were more frequent in older patients and after exposure to CPA (13/103, 13%) compared to NA (1/22, 4%) or CMA (1/85, 1%; P = 0.005). After CPA exposure, meningiomas were associated with longer treatment duration (median = 20 vs 7 years, P = 0.001) and higher cumulative dose (median = 91 g vs. 62 g, P = 0.014). Similarly, their multiplicity was associated with higher dose of CPA (median = 244 g vs 61 g, P = 0.027). Most meningiomas were ≤ 1 cm3 (44/58, 76%) and were convexity meningiomas (36/58, 62%). At diagnosis, patients were non-symptomatic, and all were managed conservatively. Among 14 patients with meningioma who stopped progestin exposure, meningioma burden decreased in 11 (79%) cases with no case of progression during MR follow-up. CONCLUSION Systematic MR screening in progestin-exposed patients uncovers small and multiple meningiomas, which can be managed conservatively, decreasing in size after progestin discontinuation. The high rate of meningiomas after CPA exposure reinforces the need for systematic screening. For NA and CMA, further studies are needed to identify patients most likely to benefit from screening.

Eur J Neurol 2022; 29:2801-2809. [PMID: 35621369 PMCID: PMC9543130 DOI: 10.1111/ene.15423] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2022] [Revised: 05/20/2022] [Accepted: 05/23/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
Background and purpose A dose‐dependent association between the use of cyproterone acetate (CPA) and intracranial meningioma has been identified but data for other potent progestogens are scarce. The association was assessed between intracranial meningioma surgery and exposure to three potent progestogens: CPA (≥25 mg/day), nomegestrol acetate (NOMAC) (3.75–5 mg/day) and chlormadinone acetate (CMA) (2–10 mg/day). Methods In this nationwide population‐based case–control study, cases underwent surgery for intracranial meningioma in France from 2009 to 2018. They were matched to five control subjects for sex, year of birth and area of residence. Progestogen exposure was defined as progestogen use within the year before surgery for cases or the same date for their controls. Results In total, 25,216 cases were included (75% women, median age 58 years). Progestogen exposure was noted for 9.9% of cases (2497/25,216) and 1.9% (2382/126,080) of controls, with an odds ratio (OR) of 6.7 (95% confidence interval [CI] 6.3–7.1). The OR was 1.2 (1.0–1.4) for short‐term use (<1 year) and 9.5 (8.8–10.2) for prolonged use. A strong association was identified for prolonged use of CPA (OR = 22.7, 95% CI 19.5–26.4), NOMAC (OR = 6.5, 95% CI 5.8–7.2) and CMA (OR = 4.7, 95% CI 4.5–5.3). Progestogen exposure increased the risk of meningioma for all histological grades and anatomical sites, particularly for the anterior and middle skull base: OR = 35.7 (95% CI 26.5–48.2) and 23.9 (95% CI 17.8–32.2) for CPA. The estimated number of attributable cases was 2124 (95% CI 2028–2220) (212/year). Conclusion A strong association between prolonged exposure to potent progestogens and surgery for meningioma was observed. The risk increased from CMA to NOMAC to CPA. Individuals should be informed of this risk. This study highlights a strong association between prolonged use of nomegestrol and chlormadinone acetate (two potent progestogens) and intracranial meningioma, although weaker than that of cyproterone acetate. The estimated number of cases was higher than 2000 in France over 10 years.

Abstract
PURPOSE The long-term use of cyproterone acetate (CPA) is associated with an increased risk of developing intracranial meningiomas. CPA discontinuation most often induces a stabilization or regression of the tumor. The underlying biological mechanisms as well as the reasons why some meningiomas still grow after CPA discontinuation remain unknown. We reported a series of patients presenting CPA-induced meningiomatosis with opposed tumor evolutions following CPA discontinuation, highlighting the underlying histological and genetic features. METHODS Patients presenting several meningiomas with opposite tumor evolution (coexistence of growing and shrinking tumors) following CPA discontinuation were identified. Clinical and radiological data were reviewed. A retrospective volumetric analysis of the meningiomas was performed. All the growing meningiomas were operated. Each operated tumor was characterized by histological and genetic analyses. RESULTS Four women with multiple meningiomas and opposite tumor volume evolutions after CPA discontinuation were identified. Histopathological analysis characterized the convexity and tentorial tumors which continued to grow after CPA discontinuation as fibroblastic meningiomas. The decreasing skull base tumor was characterized as a fibroblastic meningioma with increased fibrosis and a widespread collagen formation. The two growing skull base meningiomas were identified as meningothelial and transitional meningiomas. The molecular characterization found two NF2 mutations among the growing meningiomas and a PIK3CA mutation in the skull base tumor which decreased. CONCLUSION To our knowledge, this is the first report describing an atypical tumor evolution of CPA-associated meningiomas after CPA discontinuation. The underlying biological mechanisms explaining this observation and especially the close relationship between mutational landscapes and embryologic origins of the meninges in CPA-related meningiomas as well as their clonal origin require further research.

Management of cavernous sinus meningiomas: Consensus statement on behalf of the EANS skull base section. BRAIN AND SPINE 2022; 2:100864. [PMID: 36248124 PMCID: PMC9560706 DOI: 10.1016/j.bas.2022.100864] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2021] [Revised: 01/08/2022] [Accepted: 01/16/2022] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
Introduction The evolution of cavernous sinus meningiomas (CSMs) might be unpredictable and the efficacy of their treatments is challenging due to their indolent evolution, variations and fluctuations of symptoms, heterogeneity of classifications and lack of randomized controlled trials. Here, a dedicated task force provides a consensus statement on the overall management of CSMs. Research question To determine the best overall management of CSMs, depending on their clinical presentation, size, and evolution as well as patient characteristics. Material and methods Using the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, we included literature from January 2000 to December 2020. A total of 400 abstracts and 77 titles were kept for full-paper screening. Results The task force formulated 8 recommendations (Level C evidence). CSMs should be managed by a highly specialized multidisciplinary team. The initial evaluation of patients includes clinical, ophthalmological, endocrinological and radiological assessment. Treatment of CSM should involve experienced skull-base neurosurgeons or neuro-radiosurgeons, radiation oncologists, radiologists, ophthalmologists, and endocrinologists. Discussion and conclusion Radiosurgery is preferred as first-line treatment in small, enclosed, pauci-symptomatic lesions/in elderly patients, while large CSMs not amenable to resection or WHO grade II-III are candidates for radiotherapy. Microsurgery is an option in aggressive/rapidly progressing lesions in young patients presenting with oculomotor/visual/endocrinological impairment. Whenever surgery is offered, open cranial approaches are the current standard. There is limited experience reported about endoscopic endonasal approach for CSMs and the main indication is decompression of the cavernous sinus to improve symptoms. Whenever surgery is indicated, the current trend is to offer decompression followed by radiosurgery. A thorough evaluation of cavernous sinus meningiomas by a multidisciplinary team is mandatory. Microsurgery should be considered for aggressive lesions in young patients. Extended endoscopic approaches can be effective when combined with radiotherapy. Stereotaxic radiotherapy and stereotaxic radiosurgery offer excellent tumour control in small/asymptomatic lesions .

Preliminary report of patients with meningiomas exposed to Cyproterone Acetate, Nomegestrol Acetate and Chlormadinone Acetate - Monocentric ongoing study on progestin related meningiomas. Clin Neurol Neurosurg 2021; 210:106959. [PMID: 34592677 DOI: 10.1016/j.clineuro.2021.106959] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2021] [Revised: 09/14/2021] [Accepted: 09/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The relationship between meningioma and progestins has not been elucidated. Meningioma regression after acetate cyproterone (CA) withdrawal has been reported. Our purpose was to evaluate the meningioma evolution after withdrawal of progestins in patients who underwent long-term exposure to CA, nomegestrol acetate (NA), chlormadinone acetate (ChlA). METHODS Our study retrospectively included 69 patients with intracranial meningioma and exposed to one of these 3 progestins between December 2006 and March 2019. In each patient, clinico-radiological (MRI) follow-up was performed every 6 months after diagnosis and treatment withdrawal recommendation. Statistical analyses were applied to compare tumor location and respect of prescription rules between the 3 groups. RESULTS The mean hormonal exposure was 16 years in CA group (n = 46), 16 years in NA group (n = 12) and 9.7 years in ChlA group (n = 11). A higher rate of "out of label" use was observed in the CA group (p = 0.003). Multiple meningiomas were demonstrated in more than 60% of cases in each group. Anterior skull base location was noted in 60.5% of cases in CA group, 25% of cases in NA group and 36.7% of cases in ChlA group (p = 0.05). Incomplete tumor regression was recorded in 11 cases of CA group and in 2 cases of ChlA group. CONCLUSION In CA group, our results suggest a strong relationship between this treatment and development of intracranial meningioma. In presence of voluminous asymptomatic meningioma, treatment can be delayed due to the potential regression after withdrawal. On the contrary in NA and ChlA groups, further studies are needed.
