Although prostate cancer (PCa) is the most commonly diagnosed in men of sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), little known about its management and survival. The objective current study was to describe presentation, patterns diagnosis, treatment, survival patients with PCa 10 countries SSA.
Cancer in Sub-Saharan Africa is becoming an important challenge for health services due to rising numbers of patients. In Addis Ababa with around 3.5 million inhabitants, more than 2000 cases are diagnosed annually. this retrospective population-based cohort study we assessed completeness and waiting time cancer-therapy among patients registered the City Registry (AACCR), Ethiopia. Patient hospital files were retrieved complete data from AACCR. A total 588 found (51% those January March 2012...
Abstract Background Cervical cancer (CC) is the most common female in many countries of sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). We assessed treatment guideline adherence and its association with overall survival (OS). Methods Our observational study covered nine population-based registries eight countries: Benin, Ethiopia, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Mali, Mozambique, Uganda, Zimbabwe. Random samples 44–125 patients diagnosed from 2010 to 2016 were selected each. Cancer-directed therapy (CDT) was evaluated for...
Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the most common in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). However, little known about actual therapy received by women with BC and their survival outcome at population level SSA. This study aims to describe cancer-directed patients SSA, compare these results NCCN Harmonized Guidelines for SSA (NCCN Guidelines), evaluate impact on survival. Methods: Random samples of (≥40 per registry), diagnosed from 2009 through 2015, were drawn 11 urban population–based registries 10...
Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is the sixth most common cancer in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Comprehensive diagnostics of NHL are essential for effective treatment. Our objective was to assess frequency subtypes, disease stage and further diagnostic aspects. Eleven population-based registries 10 countries participated our observational study. A random sample 516 patients included. Histological confirmation available 76.2% cytological another 17.3%. subclassification determined 42.1%. Of these,...
Background: The burden of colorectal cancer (CRC) is increasing in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). However, little known about CRC treatment and survival the region. Methods: A random sample 653 patients with diagnosed from 2011 to 2015 was obtained 11 population-based registries SSA. Information on clinical characteristics, treatment, and/or vital status medical records treating hospitals for 356 (54%) (“traced cohort”). Concordance NCCN Harmonized Guidelines SSA assessed. Cox proportional...
Abstract Background Although non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is the 6th most common malignancy in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), little known about its management and outcome. Herein, we examined treatment patterns survival among NHL patients. Methods We obtained a random sample of adult patients diagnosed between 2011 2015 from 11 population-based cancer registries 10 SSA countries. Descriptive statistics for lymphoma-directed therapy (LDT) degree concordance with National Comprehensive Cancer...
Purpose Stage at diagnosis and receipt of therapy are the most important determinants breast cancer (BC) survival in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Recently, National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines for SSA were published. Our study aimed to describe cancer-directed (CDT) received by patients with BC population level SSA. Methods Random samples (≥ 40 cases per registry) who diagnosed from 2009 2015 drawn 11 population-based registries—Abidjan, Addis Ababa, Bamako, Brazzaville, Bulawayo,...
Abstract Background To assess population-based quality of cancer care in sub-Saharan Africa and to identify specific gaps joint opportunities, we assessed concordance diagnostics treatments with National Comprehensive Cancer Network Harmonized Guidelines for leading types 10 countries. Methods Adult patients female breast cancer, cervical colorectal non-Hodgkin lymphoma, prostate were randomly drawn from 11 registries. Guideline treatment was using clinical records. In a subcohort 906...
Das Zervixkarzinom hat südlich der Sahara eine große Bedeutung in gynäkologischen Onkologie (Inzidenz bis 42/100.000, häufigstes Malignom bei Frauen). Bisher fehlt populationsbezogene Untersuchung Stadien, Therapie und deren Einfluss auf das Überleben diesen Ländern mit niedrigem mittlerem Einkommen (LMICs). Die vorliegende kombinierte einer Zusammenarbeit dem Afrikanischen Krebsregisternetzwerk (AFCRN) aus populationsbasierten Krebsregistern sollten Diagnose- Therapiedaten sieben Registern...
Cervical cancer (CC) has an incidence up to 42/100,000 per year in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Lack of health services, late stages at presentation and poor overall survival (OS) are reported, but little is known about the patterns care. Thus, we designed a retrospective, population-based study collect data upon stage, therapy, OS.
Cervical cancer (CC) is the most common female in many countries of Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). We aimed to assess population-based adherence treatment guidelines this region under circumstances low screening coverage, late stages at presentation, and limited resources oncological diagnostics treatment.
