Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical Ascertainment of Health Outcomes Among Adults Treated for Childhood Cancer
Melissa M. Hudson,Kirsten K. Ness,James G. Gurney,Daniel A. Mulrooney,Wassim Chemaitilly,Kevin R. Krull,Daniel M. Green,Gregory T. Armstrong,Kerri Nottage,Kendra E. Jones,Charles A. Sklar,Deo Kumar Srivastava,Leslie L. Robison +12 more
TL;DR: Among adult survivors of childhood cancer, the prevalence of adverse health outcomes was high, and a systematic risk-based medical assessment identified a substantial number of previously undiagnosed problems that are more prevalent in an older population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Health Status of Adult Long-term Survivors of Childhood Cancer A Report From the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study
Melissa M. Hudson,Ann C. Mertens,Yutaka Yasui,Wendy L. Hobbie,Hegang Chen,James G. Gurney,Mark W. Yeazel,Christopher J. Recklitis,Neyssa Marina,Leslie R. Robison,Kevin C. Oeffinger +10 more
TL;DR: Clinicians caring for adult survivors of childhood cancer should be aware of the substantial risk for adverse health status, especially among females, those withLow educational attainment, and those with low household incomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term outcomes among adult survivors of childhood central nervous system malignancies in the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study.
Gregory T. Armstrong,Qi Liu,Yutaka Yasui,Sujuan Huang,Kirsten K. Ness,Wendy Leisenring,Melissa M. Hudson,Sarah S. Donaldson,Allison A. King,Marilyn Stovall,Kevin R. Krull,Leslie L. Robison,Roger J. Packer +12 more
TL;DR: Survivors of childhood CNS malignancies are at high risk for late mortality and for developing subsequent neoplasms and chronic medical conditions and care providers should be informed of these risks so they can provide risk-directed care and develop screening guidelines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extended follow-up of long-term survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Ching-Hon Pui,Cheng Cheng,Wing Leung,Shesh N. Rai,Gaston K. Rivera,John T. Sandlund,Raul C. Ribeiro,Mary V. Relling,Larry E. Kun,William E. Evans,Melissa M. Hudson +10 more
TL;DR: Children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia who did not receive radiation therapy and who have attained 10 or more years of event-free survival can expect a normal long-term survival, and Irradiation is associated with the development of second neoplasms, a slight excess in mortality, and an increased unemployment rate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cumulative Incidence of Secondary Neoplasms as a First Event After Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Nobuko Hijiya,Melissa M. Hudson,Shelly Lensing,Margie Zacher,Mihaela Onciu,Fred G. Behm,Fred G. Behm,Bassem I. Razzouk,Bassem I. Razzouk,Raul C. Ribeiro,Jeffrey E. Rubnitz,John T. Sandlund,Gaston K. Rivera,William E. Evans,Mary V. Relling,Ching-Hon Pui +15 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that lifelong follow-up of acute lymphoblastic leukemia survivors is needed to ascertain the full impact of treatment and other leukemia-related factors on secondary neoplasm development and the increase in incidence of more aggressive malignant neoplasms is significantly higher than expected in the general population.
