Numerous studies have suggested a decreased risk of cancer in patients with diabetes on metformin. Because different comparison groups were used, the effect magnitude is difficult to estimate. Therefore, objective this study was further analyze whether, and what extent, use metformin associated cohort incident users compared sulfonylurea derivatives.Data for obtained from dispensing records community pharmacies individually linked hospital discharge 2.5 million individuals Netherlands.

The use of cytochrome P450 2D6-inhibiting drugs (CYP2D6 inhibitors) during tamoxifen treatment leads to a decrease in plasma concentration endoxifen, the major active metabolite. Concomitant CYP2D6 inhibitors, such as selective serotonin reuptake well low adherence may negatively impact efficacy patients with breast cancer. objectives this study were relate concomitant inhibitor and cancer event-free time (EFT).Data from PHARMO included community pharmacy dispensing database; PALGA,...

The preventive role of non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and aspirin, in particular, on colorectal cancer is well established. More recently, it has been suggested that aspirin may also have a therapeutic role. Aim the present observational population-based study was to assess effect overall survival aspirin/NSAIDs as adjuvant treatment used after diagnosis patients.Data concerning prescriptions were obtained from PHARMO record linkage systems all patients diagnosed with...

Several publications suggest an association between certain types of insulin and cancer, but with conflicting results. We investigated whether glargine (A21Gly,B31Arg,B32Arg human insulin) is associated increased risk cancer in a large population-based cohort study. Data for this study were obtained from dispensing records community pharmacies individually linked to hospital discharge 2.5 million individuals the Netherlands. In incident users insulin, other analogues, respectively, was...

Abstract Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with greater risk for colorectal cancer (CRC). The age of onset T2DM decreasing worldwide. An increased CRC in young patients could be relevant the at which to initiate screening. We report on attention diagnosis. used pharmacy data (from 1998 2010) from PHARMO Database Network linked Eindhoven Cancer Registry. Multivariable time-dependent Cox regression analyses were conducted calculate hazard ratios (HR) developing comparing non-T2DM....

Metformin, statin and aspirin use seem associated with decreased mortality in cancer patients, though, without adjusting for one another. Independent associations of these drugs overall after colorectal (CRC) diagnosis within glucose-lowering (GLDs) users were assessed. Patients starting GLDs before CRC (1998–2011) selected from the Eindhoven Cancer Registry linked PHARMO Database Network. The Cox regression model, time since diagnosis, included time-dependent variables cumulative exposure...
