INCIDENCE, PREVALENCE AND OVERALL RISK OF ESOPHAGEAL CANCER IN ACHALASIA: A PROPENSITY-MATCHED POPULATION-BASED STUDY FROM A LARGE MULTICENTER DATABASE
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
achalasia treatments: esophageal achalasia treatments
Study summary
Esophageal Achalasia has been investigated as a potential risk factor for esophageal cancer (EC). Longstanding disease, repeated treatment, age and male sex seem the most relevant risk factors, but no clear effect size estimation from large sample cohorts has been provided so far. The aim of the investigators is to estimate EC risk in large sample-size population, and to provide sub-analyses per cancer type and treatment impact on EC risk.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Hazard Ratio — from Jan 1st 2000 to June 3rd 2025
Hazard Ratio (HR) with Kaplan Meyer (KM) analysis of EC occurrence in achalasia vs control subjects - Incidence proportion, prevalence and incidence rate — Jan 1st 2000- June 3rd 2025
Incidence proportion (%), prevalence (%) and incidence rate (100,000 persons-year) of EC (and different histological subtypes)
