3 Ovarian Cancer Ovarian cancer Fallopian tube cancer Primary peritoneal cancer

4 Incidence The less common Gynecologic malignancy Turkey - It is estimated that around 3,800 new cases are seen each year It has been reported that 69% of ovarian cancers are epithelial stromal tumors (Quintiles 2012) - i.e. - around 2700 cases a year US cases a year Israel cases a year life time probability - 1.4% (1/70) Most lethal gyn malignancy - All stages 5 year survival - 50%

5 Risk Factors Familial history of ovarian cancer is the most significant risk factor First degree relative - 5% life time probability

6 Inherited Ovarian Cancer Worldwide % of all cases General population - prevalence of disease related mutations - 1:300-1:800 Israel % of all cases Prevalence of disease related mutations up to 1:40! (Ashkenazi Jews(

11 Criteria for Genetic Risk Assessment Patients with greater than an approximate 20 25% chance of having an inherited predisposition to breast cancer and ovarian cancer and for whom genetic risk assessment is recommended: Women with a personal history of both breast cancer and ovarian cancer* Women with ovarian cancer*and a close relative with ovarian cancer or premenopausal breast cancer or both Women with ovarian cancer*who are of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry Women with breast cancer at age 50 years or younger and a close relative with ovarian cancer* or male breast cancer at any age Women of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry in whom breast cancer was diagnosed at age 40 years or younger Women with a close relative with a known BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation Patients with greater than an approximate 5 10% chance of having an inherited predisposition to breast cancer and ovarian cancer and for whom genetic risk assessment may be helpful: Women with breast cancer at age 40 years or younger Women with ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer of high grade, serous histology at any age Women with bilateral breast cancer (particularly if the first case of breast cancer was diagnosed at age 50 years or younger) Women with breast cancer at age 50 years or younger and a close relative with breast cancer at age 50 years or younger Women of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry with breast cancer at age 50 years or younger Women with breast cancer at any age and two or more close relatives with breast cancer at any age (particularly if at least one case of breast cancer was diagnosed at age 50 years or younger) Unaffected women with a close relative that meets one of the previous criteria *Cancer of the peritoneum and fallopian tubes should be considered a part of the spectrum of the hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome. Close relative is defined as a first-degree relative (mother, sister, daughter) or second-degree relative (grandmother, granddaughter, aunt, niece). ACOG Practice Bulletin No. 103: Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome

12 NCCN Guidelines Version Hereditary Breast and/or Ovarian Cancer Syndrome Breast awareness at the age of 18 Clinical breast exam, every 6 12 mo, starting at age 25 y. Breast screening Age y, annual breast MRI screening (preferred) or mammogram if MRI is unavailable or individualised based on earliest age of onset in family. Age y, annual mammogram and breast MRI screening. Age >75 y, management should be considered on an individual basis. Discuss risk-reducing mastectomy

13 And what about ovarian cancer screening

14 BRCA mutation carrier surveillance - ovary There are data that show that annual trans-vaginal ultrasound and CA-125 are not effective strategies for screening for ovarian cancer in high-risk women There are limited data regarding the effectiveness of a six-month screening interval consensus groups have recommended periodic screening with CA 125 and trans-vaginal ultrasonography, beginning between the ages of 30 years and 35 years or 5 10 years earlier than the earliest age of first diagnosis of ovarian cancer in the family

15 Active management Chemo-prevention oral contraceptive Surgical prevention bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy Hysterectomy

16 general population oral contraceptive

17 oral contraceptive as ovarian cancer risk reducer General population The Cancer and Steroid Hormone Study 546 EOC vs 4228 control risk of EOC 0.6 among OC users 3-6months is enough??? lasts for 15 years independent of formulation N Engl J Med 1987 Mar 12;316(11):650 5.

23 OC and BRCA mutation carriers 6 studies since found risk reducing effect Modan et al N Engl J Med 2001;345: no benefit due to small number of OC users

24 OC and BRCA mutation carriers McLaughlin JR et al Lancet Oncol 2007;8:26 34 The largest study The use of OC was associated with highly significant risk reduction of ovarian cancer for mutation carriers"

27 risk reducing surgery BSO/BS+BO/H-BSO

28 risk reducing salpingo-oophorectomy After a preventive salpingo-oophorectomy, mutation carriers achieve an 80% reduction in subsequent ovarian, fallopian tube and peritoneal cancer Iryna Vyarvelska et al Gyn Onc 134 (2014)

29 NCCN Guidelines Version Hereditary Breast and/or Ovarian Cancer Syndrome Recommend risk-reducing salpingooophorectomy, ideally between 35 and 40 y, and upon completion of child bearing or individualised based on earliest age of onset of ovarian cancer in the family

30 Hysterectomy? Salpingectomy only first?

31 Hysterectomy Absolute risk of uterine cancer BRCA carriers Canada 4456BRCA women 17endometrial cancer Life time risk (35-75) 2.8% Tamoxifen users among BRCA women 4.3% General population 2.6% Segev Y, et al. The incidence of endometrial cancer in women with BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations: an international prospective cohort study. Gynecol Oncol 2013;130:

32 To H or not to H pro hysterctomy con eliminate risk of endometrial cancer fallopian cornual portion small increments of endometrial cancer mainly in tamoxifen users fimbria should be removed tamoxifen w/o risk of endometrial cancer simplifies HRT peri-operative morbidity QOL issues eliminate risk of cervical cancer cost serous endometrial cancer and BRCA HRT is not c/i in BRCA there is no evidence for prognostic benefit of hysterectomy

33

34 Two steps BSO The fimbria is the origin of major portion of ovarian cancer Young age BSO carries higher risk of health and QOL disadvantages Pre menopause salpingectomy Post menopausal oophorectomy

35 salpingectomy 60% pelvic serous carcinomas (only 60 ) in a mathematical model: BSO offers the greatest risk reduction for breast and ovarian cancer when considering QOL is acceptable alternative for those unwilling to undergo BSO JS Kwon et al obstet gynecol VOL. 121, NO. 1, JANUARY 2013

Zakhour, WAGO abstracts 2014, GynOnc Nov 2014

43 Summary familial history is the most significant risk factor no effective risk reducing surveillance schema OC should be considered for chemo-prevention BSO is the most effective risk reducing procedure women should continue follow up post BSO
