    Abstract: 10047 Background: Pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is a highly curable disease. However, survivors are at high risk for long-term complications of therapy. The impact of sociodemographic and clinical factors on adherence to late effects surveillance guidelines is unknown. Methods: The CCSS is a retrospective cohort with prospective follow-up of survivors diagnosed from 1970-1999. HL survivors enrolled in CCSS who responded to a 2017 questionnaire were included. We assessed adherence to the Children’s Oncology Group surveillance guidelines for cardiomyopathy, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and skin cancer. Multivariate logistic regression was used to estimate adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals (aOR [95% CI]) for sociodemographic and clinical risk factors associated with adherence. Estimates were adjusted for area deprivation index (ADI); chronic health conditions; recent (≤2 years) routine check-up, cancer center or survivorship clinic visit; and possession of a survivorship care plan (SCP). Results: 1,380 HL survivors (45.6% male; median age 43.6 years, range 21.6-65.9 years) responded, of whom 55.5% were at elevated risk for cardiac dysfunction, 71.0% for breast cancer, 83.5% for skin cancer, and 39.4% for colorectal cancer. Of those at elevated risk, 42.7%, 19.9%, 31.3% and 48.9% were adherent to the guidelines for cardiac, breast, skin, and colorectal screening, respectively. Predictors of adherence to cardiac dysfunction guidelines were male sex (aOR 1.7 [1.1-2.6] ), having children (aOR 1.6 [1.1-2.4]), recent routine checkup (aOR 4.0 [1.3-13.1] ), recent visit to a cancer center or survivorship clinic (aOR 6.2 [3.9-10.0]), and possession of a SCP (aOR 3.1 [1.9-5.0] ). Adherence to breast cancer guidelines was higher in those who were unmarried (aOR 2.1 [1.0-4.1]), had a recent visit to a cancer center or survivorship clinic (aOR 3.7 [2.0-7.0] ), and possessed a SCP (aOR 3.5 [1.5-8.3]). Adherence to skin cancer guidelines was higher in those 〉 14 years at diagnosis (aOR 1.8 [1.3-2.4]), living in a low deprivation area (ADI 1-24.9) compared to a high deprivation area (ADI 75-100) (aOR 3.4 [1.9-5.9] ), employed (aOR 1.8 [1.1-2.9]), 〉 30 years from diagnosis (aOR 2.4 [1.6-3.6]), with a recent routine check-up (aOR 3.6 [1.1-12.5] ), and recent cancer care (aOR 2.4 [1.6-3.5]). Adherence to colorectal cancer guidelines was higher in those with grade 3-4 chronic health conditions (aOR 1.9 [1.1-3.3] ). Conclusions: Less than 50% of HL survivors are adherent to screening guidelines. Sociodemographic risk factors are significant predictors of non-adherence, particularly to skin cancer screening guidelines. This threatens to potentiate outcome disparities among HL survivors.

    Abstract: 10051 Background: Infants with neuroblastoma typically have low-risk disease with excellent survival. Therapy has been de-intensified over time to minimize late effects, however the impact on survivors’ risk of late mortality, subsequent malignant neoplasms (SMN), and chronic health conditions (CHC) is unclear. Methods: We evaluated late mortality, SMNs and CHCs (graded according to CTCAE v4.03), overall and by diagnosis era, among 990 5-year neuroblastoma survivors diagnosed at 〈 1 year of age between 1970-1999. Cumulative mortality, standardized mortality ratios (SMR), and standardized incidence ratios (SIR) of SMNs were estimated using the National Death Index and SEER rates, respectively. Cox proportional hazards estimated hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for CHC, compared to 5,051 CCSS siblings. Results: Among survivors (48% female; median attained age: 24 years, range 6-46), there was increased treatment with surgery alone across the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s (21.5%, 35.3%, 41.1%, respectively), but decreased treatment with combination surgery + radiation (22.5%, 5.3%, 0.3%, respectively) and surgery + radiation + chemotherapy (28.7%, 14.7%, 9.3%, respectively). The 20-year cumulative mortality was 2.3% (95% CI, 1.4-3.8), primarily due to SMNs (SMR SMN = 10.0, 95% CI, 4.5-22.3). The 20-year cumulative incidence of SMN was 1.2% (95% CI, 0.3-3.2), 2.5% (95% CI, 1.3-4.4), and zero for those diagnosed in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, respectively. SIR was highest for renal SMNs (SIR 12.5, 95% CI, 1.7-89.4). Compared to siblings, survivors were at increased risk for grade 1-5 CHC (HR 2.1, 95% CI, 1.9-2.3) with similar HR across eras (HR 1970s = 1.9, 95% CI, 1.6-2.2; HR 1980s = 2.2, 95% CI, 1.9-2.6; HR 1990s = 2.0, 95% CI, 1.7-2.4). The HR of severe, disabling, life-threatening and fatal CHC (grades 3-5) decreased in more recent eras (HR 1970s = 4.7, 95% CI, 3.4-6.6; HR 1980s = 4.4, 95% CI, 3.2-6.2; HR 1990s = 2.9, 95% CI, 2.0-4.3). Conclusions: Survivors of infant neuroblastoma remain at increased risk for late mortality, SMN, and CHCs many years after diagnosis. However, the risk of grade 3-5 CHCs has declined in more recent eras, likely reflecting de-intensification of therapy.

    Abstract: 150 Background: In 2013 the Institute of Medicine recommended that supportive oncology services be initiated at time of cancer diagnosis. Providers of pediatric cancer care in the Chicago metro area, supported by The Coleman Foundation, created and pilot tested a standard psycho-social stressors screening instrument for children with cancer and their families. Methods: The collaborative conducted structured review of tools: Psychosocial Assessment Tool (PAT), Social Work Assessment Tool (SWAT), National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Problem List, and √IN; and collected input from social workers and oncology providers on stressors throughout the care continuum. The resulting tool was piloted in English and Spanish at 7 pediatric cancer hospitals. Providers qualitatively reported assessment of its usefulness. Results: Patients/family (n = 57) completed the “getting to know you and your child” instrument which inquired about caregivers, siblings, child’s likes/hobbies, school situation, SSI/SNAP, challenges, and cultural/religious preferences. Providers reported that almost all families found the tool useful “to think about support needs”; one said it was invasive. The tool assessed 12 psychosocial stressors; the mean per patient/family was 2.49 (range 0-11). The most frequent stressors were support from friends, family, community (30%), paying for food (26%), job flexibility (26%), school concerns (25%), emotional support for family (25%), and medical costs (23%). All who reported temporary housing also reported difficulty paying for a place to live (p 〈 0.0001). Providers reported that the standard tool generated new insight into family structures, challenges and needs informing resolution efforts. Provider recommended adjustments: simplify terms for siblings, hobbies and spiritual, adding question about pets in the home. Conclusions: Pilot testing of a psycho-social screening tool for pediatric and adolescent oncology informed providers of patient/family needs in a standard manner. Four of the seven sites involved in the pilot are now implementing this tool as a standard practice; the remaining sites are performing analyses on how to incorporate the tool into their care processes.

    Abstract: Subsequent malignant neoplasms (SMNs) in childhood cancer survivors cause substantial morbidity and mortality. This review summarizes recent literature on SMN epidemiology, risk factors, surveillance, and interventions. Survivors of childhood cancer experience long-term increased SMN risk compared with the general population, with a greater than twofold increased solid tumor risk extending beyond age 40 years. There is a dose-dependent increased risk for solid tumors after radiotherapy, with the highest risks for tumors occurring in or near the treatment field (eg, greater than fivefold increased risk for breast, brain, thyroid, skin, bone, and soft tissue malignancies). Alkylating and anthracycline chemotherapies increase the risk for development of several solid malignancies in addition to acute leukemia/myelodysplasia, and these risks may be modified by other patient characteristics, such as age at exposure and, potentially, inherited genetic susceptibility. Strategies for identifying survivors at risk and initiating long-term surveillance have improved and interventions are underway to improve knowledge about late-treatment effects among survivors and caregivers. Better understanding of treatment-related risk factors and genetic susceptibility holds promise for refining surveillance strategies and, ultimately, upfront cancer therapies.

    Abstract: Numerous organizations recommend that patients with cancer receive a survivorship care plan (SCP) comprising a treatment summary and follow-up care plans. Among current barriers to implementation are providers’ concerns about the strength of evidence that SCPs improve outcomes. This systematic review evaluates whether delivery of SCPs has a positive impact on health outcomes and health care delivery for cancer survivors. Methods Randomized and nonrandomized studies evaluating patient-reported outcomes, health care use, and disease outcomes after delivery of SCPs were identified by searching MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and Cochrane Library. Data extracted by independent raters were summarized on the basis of qualitative synthesis. Results Eleven nonrandomized and 13 randomized studies met inclusion criteria. Variability was evident across studies in cancer types, SCP delivery timing and method, SCP recipients and content, SCP-related counseling, and outcomes assessed. Nonrandomized study findings yielded descriptive information on satisfaction with care and reactions to SCPs. Randomized study findings were generally negative for the most commonly assessed outcomes (ie, physical, functional, and psychological well-being); findings were positive in single studies for other outcomes, including amount of information received, satisfaction with care, and physician implementation of recommended care. Conclusion Existing research provides little evidence that SCPs improve health outcomes and health care delivery. Possible explanations include heterogeneity in study designs and the low likelihood that SCP delivery alone would influence distal outcomes. Findings are limited but more positive for proximal outcomes (eg, information received) and for care delivery, particularly when SCPs are accompanied by counseling to prepare survivors for future clinical encounters. Recommendations for future research include focusing to a greater extent on evaluating ways to ensure SCP recommendations are subsequently acted on as part of ongoing care.

    Abstract: Little is known about physicians' attitudes and knowledge regarding the health care needs of childhood cancer survivors (CCS). We sought to obtain pediatric cancer physicians' self-reported attitudes and knowledge regarding this population. Methods A mailed survey was sent to 1,159 pediatric oncologists in the United States. Results A total of 655 surveys were returned (ie, 57% response rate). Median age of respondents was 47 years (range, 31 to 82 years); 57% were men. Respondents practiced for a median 14 years (range, 1 to 50 years) and reported seeing a median of 21 patients per week (range, 0 to 250 patients per week). When comfort levels in caring for CCS were described (ie, 1 = very uncomfortable; 7 = very comfortable), respondents were most comfortable with survivors ≤ 21 years (mean ± standard deviation, 6.2 ± 1.3 level), were less comfortable (5.0 ± 1.5 level) with those older than 21 years but less than 30 years old, and were uncomfortable with CCS ≥ 30 years (2.9 ± 1.7 level). In response to a clinical vignette of a 29-year-old woman treated with mantle radiation for Hodgkin's lymphoma at 16 years of age, and on the basis of available guidelines, 34% of respondents did not appropriately recommend yearly breast cancer surveillance; 43% of respondents did not appropriately recommend cardiac surveillance; and 24% of respondents did not appropriately recommend yearly thyroid surveillance. Those with greater self-reported familiarity with available long-term follow-up (LTFU) guidelines (odds ratio [OR] , 1.33; 95% CI, 1.15 to 1.54) and with receipt of training in the care of CCS (OR, 1.73; 95% CI, 1.18 to 2.52) were more likely to have answered all three questions correctly. Conclusion Pediatric oncologists express a range of preferences with regard to LTFU of CCS. Many appear unfamiliar with LTFU surveillance guidelines.

    Abstract: 10052 Background: Patients (pts) diagnosed with hematologic malignancies during adolescence & young adulthood (AYA) are a uniquely challenging population who are understood to have robust supportive care needs. Here, we describe their symptom burdens and the feasibility of integrating palliative care into an outpatient, multi-disciplinary AYA leukemia clinic at an academic medical center. Methods: Palliative care was introduced into the AYA clinic in 8/2020 to provide symptom-focused care. Pre-existing clinic services included psychologists, pharmacists, and social workers. All established pts receiving routine follow up were referred by the oncology team to the Supportive Care team, which provided same-day palliative care consultation in the same clinic space with a telehealth option and as needed follow-up. To describe baseline symptom burdens, a random cross-sectional sample of pts completed a multi-domain symptom assessment (SA) using validated self-report instruments including physical (Edmonton Symptom Assessment Scale [ESAS] ); emotional (Brief Symptom Inventory-18 [BSI-18]); financial (FACIT-COST); cognitive (Childhood Cancer Survivor Study – Neurocognitive Questionnaire); spiritual (FACIT -Spiritual Well-being Scale); and quality of life (QOL) (FACT-General) measures. All pts have a diagnosis of acute or chronic leukemia and were on active treatment or in survivorship. Results: Over 6 months, 30 pts (median age 29 years at assessment, range 18-45 years) received symptom-focused palliative care over 16 combined clinics with 81 total encounters averaging 5 pts (range 1-8) per clinic. 47% were female. No pts declined palliative care. Pts received on average 2.7 follow up visits (range 1-6), with 50% of encounters resulting in adjustments to medical management. Common issues addressed included pain, muscle cramps, neuropathy, anxiety, insomnia, depression, nausea, and non-pharmacological symptom control remedies. Of 46 pts, 31 (67%) completed the SA (median age 30 years at assessment, range 18-43 years); 48% were female; 84% were on treatment. 100% of pts reported fatigue, and 48% reported 〉 = 1 severe symptom (range 0-7) based on the ESAS with “poor feeling of well-being” as the most common (23%). 45% met criteria for BSI-18 emotional distress, and 45% reported some neurocognitive impairment. Emotional distress (p 〈 0.01), financial toxicity (p = 0.03), low spiritual well-being (p 〈 0.01), and presence of pain, nausea, or depression (p 〈 0.05) were all associated with lower QOL. Conclusions: AYA pts with leukemia undergoing treatment and in survivorship experience high symptom burden with poor QOL. It is feasible to both assess symptom burden and provide early palliative care focused on symptom management in an outpatient, multi-disciplinary clinic setting.
