    Abstract: 8039 Background: During the last decades Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) treatment changed towards less toxic chemotherapy schemes and smaller radiation fields. The impact of these changes on second cancer (SC) risk is still unknown. Methods: We calculated standardized incidence ratios (SIR), comparing SC risk after HL treatment with expected risk, based on cancer incidence in the general population, and compared SC risk between treatment modalities, accounting for competing events, in a large Dutch cohort comprising 3,390 5-years HL survivors, aged 15-51 years at HL treatment and diagnosed between 1965-2000. Results: The median follow-up was 18.2 years; 23% of the patients was followed ≥25 years. During follow-up 734 SCs and 92 third cancers (TC) occurred. The SIR for any SC was 4.5 (95% confidence interval (95%CI) 4.1-4.9). SC risk was still elevated after 35 years of follow-up (SIR 3.9; 95%CI 2.5-5.8) and cumulative incidence (CI) reached 47.1% (95%CI 43.6-50.5) at 40 years follow-up. For TCs the SIR was 5.5 (95%CI 4.4-6.9); the 20-year CI was 22.3% (95%CI 17.8-27.2). Risks of NHL and leukemia strongly decreased in more recent treatment periods (P-trend 〈 0.001). The CI of solid tumors (ST) between 5-19 years after HL treatment did not differ for patients treated between 1965-1979, 1980-1989 or 1990-2000 (P=0.21; 19-year CI 9.1%, 11.6% and 11.4%, respectively). Radiotherapy (RT) above the diaphragm increased risk of STs above the diaphragm (hazard ratio (HR) 2.4, P 〈 0.001), while subdiaphragmatic RT was associated with a 1.7-fold increased HR of a subdiaphragmatic ST (P=0.001). An incomplete mantle field was associated with significantly lower breast cancer (BC) risk (hazard ratio (HR) 0.4, 95%CI 0.2-0.8). A cumulative procarbazine dose 〉 4.2 g/m 2 yielded a 1.3-fold increased HR (95%CI 1.0-1.7) for non-breast STs and a 2-fold (95%CI 1.2-3.1) increased HR for gastrointestinal STs, but was associated with a strongly decreased BC risk (HR 0.3, 95%CI 0.2-0.6). Conclusions: SC risk after HL has decreased with treatment changes over the last decades, due to strongly decreasing risk of leukemia and NHL. Smaller radiation fields and procarbazine doses 〉 4.2 g/m 2 are associated with lower breast cancer risk, while high procarbazine doses increase risk of gastrointestinal STs.
