      • Breast Conserving Therapy and Quality of Life in Thai Females: a Mixed Methods Study

        Peerawong, Thanarpan,Phenwan, Tharin,Supanitwatthana, Sojirat,Mahattanobon, Somrit,Kongkamol, Chanon Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2016 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.17 No.6

        Background: To explore factors that influence quality of life (QOL) in patients receiving breast conserving therapy (BCT). Materials and Methods: In this sequential mixed methods study, 118 women from Songklanagarind Hospital were included. We used participants' characteristics, Body Image Scale (BIS), and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy with the Breast Cancer Subscale (FACT-B) for analysis. The BIS transformed into presence of body image disturbance (BID). Factors that influenced QOL were determined by stepwise multiple linear regression. Forty-one participants were selected for qualitative analysis. Our female researcher performed the semi-structured interviews with questions based on the symbolic interaction theory. Final codes were analysed using thematic analysis along with investigator triangulation methods. Results: Ninety percent had early stage breast cancer with post-completed BCT, for an average of 2.7 years. The median BIS score and FACT-B score were 2 (IQR=10) and 130 (IQR=39). In the regression analysis, an age of more than 50 years and BID were significant factors. As for the value of conserved breasts, two themes emerged: a conserved breast is an essential part of a participant's life and also the representation of her womanhood; the importance of a breast is related to age. Conclusions: Body image influenced QOL in post BCT participants. The conserved breasts also lead to positive and better impact on their body image as an essential part of their life.

      • Comparison of Treatment Compliance and Nutritional Outcomes among Patients with Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma with and without Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy during Chemoradiation

        Peerawong, Thanarpan,Phungrassami, Temsak,Pruegsanusak, Kovit,Sangthong, Rassamee Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2012 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.13 No.11

        Aims: The study aimed to compare treatment compliance and nutritional outcomes in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients during chemoradiation. Methods: Clinical information of patients with NPC that underwent chemoradiation during 2004-2009 were retrieved from the hospital database and retrospectively reviewed. Patients were categorised into a prophylactic percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PPEG) group and a non-PPEG group. Clinical information including treatment compliance, weight, haematological and renal toxicity was compared. Results: A total of 219 patients were reviewed and categorised into PPEG (n=77) and non-PPEG (n=142). Significant differences in absolute percentage weight loss between groups were found from the $3^{rd}$ cycle of chemotherapy. There were 24.2, 20.3 and 24.8% in the third, the fourth and the fifth cycles of chemotherapy, respectively. Migration of grade 2 to grade 3 weight loss was obviously seen in the $3^{rd}$ cycle as well. A significant difference of grade 3 or more hypokalemia was found with values of 14.3% and 50% in the PPEG and non-PPEG groups, respectively. Other toxicity parameters and treatment compliance were not different between the groups. Conclusions: Use of PPEG resulted in decreased severe weight loss, reduced migration from grade 2 to grade 3 weight loss and reduced hypokalaemia. However, benefits in treatment compliance could not be detected. So consideration of PPEG in NPC patients requires care.

      • Cosmetic Outcomes and Quality of Life in Thai Women Post Breast Conserving Therapy for Breast Cancer

        Thanarpan, Peerawong,Somrit, Mahattanobon,Rungarun, Jiratrachu,Paytai, Rordlamool,Duangjai, Sangtawan,Chanon, Kongkamol,Puttisak, Puttawibul Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2015 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.16 No.11

        Purpose: To evaluate the correlation between cosmetic outcome (CO), body image, and quality of life in post breast-conserving therapy (BCT) women. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study concerned one-year post-completed BCT Thai women. The data included subjective and objective CO with a questionnaire covering demographic and clinical data, anti-hormonal treatment status, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status, Self-Reported Cosmetic Outcomes (SRCO), Self-Reported Breast Symmetry (SRBS), Body Image Scale (BIS), and the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy with Breast Cancer subscale (FACT-B). Participants had breast photographs taken for the evaluation of objective cosmetic outcome (OCO) after breast cancer conservation treatment. The relationship between CO and FACT-B was tested using Spearman's rank correlation Results: A total 127 participants volunteered for the study. The participant characteristics were age 52(${\pm}9$), Buddhist 87%, married 65%, body mass index 25.0(${\pm}4.6$), breast cup size A-C 91%, college educated 60%, employed 66%, ECOG 0-1 95%, tumor size less than or equal to 2 cm 55%, no lymph node metastasis 98%, and taking tamoxifen 57%. Two percent of the participants regretted their decision to undergo BCT. The SRCO was excellent in 2%, good in 68%, fair in 30%, and poor in 0%. For SRBS, rates were 17%, 58%, 24% and 1% for excellent, good, fair and poor cosmetic outcomes, respectively. The BCCT scores were excellent 24%, good 39%, fair 32%, and poor 6%. The median total QOL score of the participants was 130 (93-144). There was no significant correlation between CO and FACT-B scores. Conclusions: The significance of CO for FACT-B in Thai women with breast cancer could not be assessed in detail because of a very low level of correlation. The results may be due to the effects of cultural background.

        Impact of time interval between radical hysterectomy with pelvic node dissection and initial adjuvant therapy on oncological outcomes of early stage cervical cancer

        Jitti Hanprasertpong,Ingporn Jiamset,Alan Geater,Kittinun Leetanaporn,Thanarpan Peerawong 대한부인종양학회 2017 Journal of Gynecologic Oncology Vol.28 No.4

        Objective: To determine the impact of time interval (TI) from radical hysterectomy with pelvicnode dissection (RHND) to adjuvant therapy on oncological outcomes in cervical cancer. Methods: The study included 110 stage IA2–IB1 cervical cancer patients who underwentRHND and adjuvant therapy. The patients were divided into 2 groups based on the cut-offpoints of TI of 4 and 6 weeks, respectively. The associations of TI and clinicopathologic factorswith oncological outcomes were evaluated using Cox proportional-hazards regression. Results: The median TI was 4.5 weeks. There were no statistical differences in 5-yearrecurrence-free survival (RFS) (89.2% vs. 81.0%, and 83.2% vs. 100.0%) or 5-year overallsurvival (OS) rates (90.9% vs. 97.2%, and 93.2% vs. 100.0%) between patients accordingto TI (≤4 vs. >4, and ≤6 vs. >6 weeks, respectively). Deep stromal invasion (p=0.037), andparametrial involvement (PI) (p=0.002) were identified as independent prognostic factorsfor RFS, together with the interaction between TI and squamous cell carcinoma histology(p<0.001). In patients with squamous cell carcinoma, a TI longer than 4 weeks wassignificantly associated with a worse RFS (hazard ratio [HR]=15.8; 95% confidence interval[CI]=1.4–173.9; p=0.024). Univariate analysis showed that only tumor size (p=0.023), and PI(p=0.003) were significantly associated with OS. Conclusion: Delay in administering adjuvant therapy more than 4 weeks after RHND in earlystage squamous cell cervical cancer results in poorer RFS.
