- W2015312658 abstract "Background: Pregnancy-associated early breast cancer (PAEBC) has increased in incidence as more women pursue childbearing at an older age. The objective of this study was to measure the impact of diagnosis and treatment on emotional health and evaluate the positive emotional outcomes in a group of women with PAEBC. Methods: Between 1989 and 2010, 81 patients were treated for PAEBC with 5-flurouracil, doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide (FAC) chemotherapy. Patients completed the Impact of Events Scale-Revised (IES-R), which is a questionnaire that measures subjective distress caused by traumatic events and the Post-traumatic Growth Inventory (PGI), which measures positive outcomes after a traumatic event. Results: Of the 81 women, 53% (43/81) completed the IES-R and 44% (36/81) also completed the PGI. The time since diagnosis ranged from 6 months to greater than 5 years. The median age of the participants was 33 years (range 26-43 years). Of the 43 patients who completed the IES-R, 91% (39/43) did not use avoidance as a primary coping strategy; they felt well equipped to deal with feelings about their diagnosis and treatment. Of patients who inadvertently thought about their diagnosis, 70% (30/43) noted that they avoided becoming upset by their thoughts. Less than 10% (9/43) of patients surveyed felt apathetic towards their diagnosis and subsequent treatment. In terms of positive outcomes , 94% (33/36) felt they were enabled to depend on others in times of crises and felt a greater appreciation for people and their kindness following their diagnosis of PAEBC. Eighty-six percent (31/36) had changed their priorities about what is important in life, felt more compassionate towards others, and felt a greater appreciation for the value of their own life. In addition, 86% (30/36) of patients indicated that they had discovered their inner strength and felt more inclined to change things in their life. Finally, 75% of patients surveyed felt they had developed a stronger religious faith because of their experience and had a better understanding of spiritual matters. The majority of patients reported improvement in interpersonal skills – placing more effort into their relationships and sharing a greater sense of closeness with others. Conclusions: Although women who experience PAEBC are thought to be at high risk for experiencing psychosocial distress, these findings suggest that most do not suffer negative emotional consequences; in fact, these data suggest that they often achieve improved emotional well-being as a result of their cancer experience. It is possible that these women have better emotional outcomes because they have successfully carried a pregnancy while facing a life-threatening illness. Comparisons to other premenopausal breast cancer survivors will be crucial in interpreting these findings. Citation Information: Cancer Res 2013;73(24 Suppl): Abstract nr P3-11-02." @default.
