360 Gender and Racial Disparities in Incidence Rates of Esophageal Adenocarcinoma
2019
Overview
INTRODUCTION:Adenocarcinoma is more common in the US than squamous cell cancer of the esophagus. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of gender, and race/ethnicity on the incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma cancer from 2000-2016 using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database.METHODS:Patients diagnosed with esophageal adenocarcinoma from 2000-2016 were identified from the SEER Registry. We retrospectively evaluated gender-specific, and race/ethnicity variations in age-adjusted annual percent changes in incidence rates during 2000-2016 for people above the age above 20. A secondary analysis was also done in regards to stage distribution for disease from 2007-2016.RESULTS:Based on the SEER 21 areas data sets, the annual percent change of incidence for esophageal adenocarcinoma was 2.3% from 2000-2007 and -0.8% from 2007-2016 for both males and females. The annual percent change for females was 2.0% from 2000-2008, -5.7% from 2008-2011, and 3.5% from 2011-2016. For males, the annual percent change was 2.3 from 2000-2007 and -1.1 from 2007-2016. There was an increase in the annual percent change incidence for females from 2011-2016. Annual percentage of incidence rates by race/ethnicity can be seen in Table 1. Percent of incidence of cases of esophageal adenocarcinoma from 2007-2016 by stage distribution was evaluated by gender. Males had the highest percent of incidence cases for distant spread at 39.4, and regional spread at 32.5. Females had the highest percent of incidence cases for localized spread at 23.8. Percent of incidence of cases of esophageal adenocarcinoma from 2007-2016 by stage distribution for race/ethnicity can be seen in Table 2. For distant spread, the highest percent of cases was seen with American Indian/Alaska Natives at 46.5.CONCLUSION:Esophageal adenocarcinoma can be prevented. Our study shows that there has been an increase in the annual percent change of incidence for females in the last decade. In addition, males had the highest incidence cases for distant spread and regional spread. This study shows that American Indian/Alaskan Native and Non-Hispanic White and White (including Hispanics) had the highest percentage of cases for distant and regional spread, respectively. This may support interventions to inform certain gender and race/ethnic populations about the importance of screening for esophageal adenocarcinoma.
