La simultaneous care!

Oggi…• La tutela della salute = prodotto

• L’assistenza sanitaria = servizio

• il malato = utente

• l’ospedale = azienda

• lo Stato, definisce, eroga, paga e controlla le prestazioni.

ma è corretto definire la salute come un prodotto o servizio e la persona malata come cliente o utente?

Significant unmet needs

• Significant unmet needs are those needs that patients identify as both important and unsatisfied.

• The range of unmet need, and the kinds of patients who are more likely to claim unmet need, should be carefully identified.

Significant unmet needs

• The NHS Cancer Plan [2000] has highlighted the need to streamline cancer services ‘around the needs of the patient’ and to provide ‘the right professional support and care as well as the best treatments’.

• However, the real question is whether the overall needs of cancer patients are actually being met.

WHAT IS PERSONALIZEDHEALTHCARE?

• Medical practices that are targeted to individuals based on their specific genetic code in order to provide a tailored approach.

• The goal of personalized health care is to improve health outcomes and the health care delivery system, as well as the quality of life of patients everywhere.

12

Every tumor develops a unique antigenic fingerprint.

Every Tumor is Unique!Mutations Are Random.

10-8 per bp per cell division cycle on 6 x 109 bp = thousands to millions of unique mutations

13

Every patient develops a unique individual fingerprint.

Every Patient is Unique!Problems Are Random.

thousands of unique problems!

14

Leaving the era of the “median results”, but targeting … what?

• Patient: – Genotype and polymorphisms:

• role of SNPs (CYP2D6)

• Tumor: refining the population target– Proliferation gene Index (PGI): the best ?– RE+/PG- population: does it mean

something?– EGFR: is or is not ?– Triple negative BC: time for separating ?

15

Tamoxifen activity is related to its metabolic pathway

Tamoxifen metabolites have different anti-estrogenic power.

80 variant alleles of cytocrome p450 2D6

Alleles 3,4 5 6 account for 99% of the variants

Catalyzes metabolism of many common drugs

Inhibited by flouxetina and paroxetina, frequently used by women assuming tamoxifen

16

Practical implication

• Very important remind: we deal not only with the tumor, but also with the host

• Similar observation with other anti-hormonal drugs (i.e. CYP19 and Letrozole, ASCO 2004)

• Confirmatory and prospective studies needed• In the meanwhile, pay attention to all drugs

you administer in combination with TAM, particularly new antidepressant– implication in some type of drug resistance?

Percezione dei sintomi:un obiettivo comune?

28

ESMO takes a stand on supportive and palliative care

• Make alleviation of pain and other symptoms a high

priority

• Medical oncologist must be expert with the evaluation

and management of pain and other symptoms

• Cancer center should provide supportive and

palliative care as part of the basic basket of services.

(Ann Oncol 14: 1335, 2003)

29

Bridging the Divide: Integrating Cancer-Directed Therapy and Palliative Care

• We must take symptom management a priority at diagnosis,

throughout treatment, during periods without treatment, and

finally, at the end of life

• We need all of these effort and more to traverse the divide

that now exists between palliative care and cancer-directed

therapy.

43.7% of Medical Oncologists used multiple symptoms tools and 37.9% used symptom specific tools;

58.9% used some instrument to assess pain.

More than a third of the respondents (35.5%) used patient-tailored protocols.

No statistical differences were found regarding region of residency, availability of consultants in pain therapy and/or palliative care, colleagues with main interest on palliative care, and beds dedicated to palliative care.

BreakThrough Cancer Pain (BTcP)

37

Prevalence of BTcP

• The prevalence of BTcP may differ due to the stage of the cancer and the methodology of the different studies, but it remains an important problem in cancer patients who are already receiving treatment for their pain.

• Up to 95% of patients with cancer suffer from BTcP.

Nutrition assessment

Weight loss at the time of diagnosis has been associated with decreased survival and reduced response to treatment.

Dewys WD, Am J Med, 1980

Treatment of nutrition-related symptoms reverse weight loss in in 50-88% of cancer patients.

Cancer rehabilitation is the process that assists the cancer patients to obtain maximal physical, social,

psychological and vocational functioning within the limits created by the disease and its treatment

41

The rehabilitation approach to cancer treatment originates with National Cancer Act (NCA) of 1971

In 1972, the NCI sponsored the National Cancer Rehabilitation Planning Conference and developed training programs and research projects to identify 4 objectives in cancer rehabilitation:

Psychosocial support

Optimization of physical functioning

Vocational counselling

Optimization of social functioning

42

why do women fear breast cancer more than any other health risk?

One out of two women in the United States will die from heart disease or stroke.

Women also believe ovarian cancer is their biggest "cancer" threat when it is actually lung cancer that kills 70,000 women a year.

43

Breast Cancer Risk:Perception vs RealityNearly 90% of Women Overestimate Breast Cancer

Risk

• When asked to estimate the average lifetime chance of developing breast cancer, nine out of 10 women overestimated the risk.

• The risk was perceived three times higher than it actually was.

P. Ubel et al., Patient Education and Counseling, 2005

44

Breast Cancer Risk:Perception vs RealityNearly 90% of Women Overestimate Breast Cancer

Risk

Estimating Risk• Roughly one in eight women will eventually develop

breast cancer. In other words, a woman has a 13% chance of developing breast cancer at some point during her life.

• Numbers don't give context: asking the patients to estimate their own risk can help put the actual risk in perspective.

• We shouldn't just throw numbers at patients without giving them some context for those numbers!

The risk perception attitude (RPA) framework

• Four attitudinal groups based on their perceptions of risk and beliefs of personal efficacy.– Responsive (high risk, high efficacy)– Avoidance (high risk, low efficacy)– Proactive (low risk, high efficacy)– Indifference (low risk, low efficacy)

• These groups differ from each other in their self-protective motivations and behaviors.

… ma anche

• I risultati delle rivalutazioni clinico-strumentali– Assenza di tumore o non evidenza di

ripresa di malattia?– Angoscia per i prossimi controlli o falsa

… ma anche

• Variazioni nel tipo di farmaco usato– Paziente asintomatica, senza

progressione di malattia, preoccupata di eventuali nuovi effetti collaterali.

– Paziente sintomatica, preoccupata che il cambio di farmaco sia dovuto ad un fallimento della precedente terapia

51 51

Caso clinico

• Paziente di 70 anni, operata per un ca della mammella da 2 anni, in trattamento adiuvante (precauzionale) con tamoxifen.

• Sulla base dei risultati con gli IA, deve sostituire il tamoxifen con un IA.

• La Paziente non ha avuto alcun effetto collaterale con il tamoxifen.

Comunicare in oncologia Quando? • Al momento della prima visita,

delineando tutte le varie possibilità terapeutiche in funzione dei possibili risultati?

• In maniera continuativa, durante le diverse fasi dela evoluzione clinica della malattia?

58 58

Comunicare in oncologia A chi? • Ogni tipo di comunicazione deve

essere attuata tenendo ben presente la persona malata, nella sua complessità ed interezza, valutando le sue specifiche caratteristiche umane, i suoi problemi e le sue preoccupazioni familiari, le sue incertezze e le sue paure sociali, insieme alle caratteristiche cliniche della neoplasia.

59 59

Caso clinico

• Paziente di 41 anni, importante dirigente di industria.

• Viene operata per una carcinoma della mammella ad alto rischio e deveessere sottoposta a chemioterapia e ad ormonoterapia per 5 anni.

• … ma aveva deciso di avere dei figli con il suo nuovo compagno!

Comunicare in oncologia Come? • Numeri, percentuali, numeri…• Facile, poco coinvolgente,

apparentemente molto tecnico.• Ma le percentuali si riferiscono a

popolazioni e non al singolo paziente che sied di fronte a noi!

End of life issues and spiritual histories

• Patients facing end-of-life issues have spiritual concerns that may have an impact on their medical decision-making.

• Conclusion:– Spiritual concerns of many patients facing

end-of-life decisions are not being addressed.

Religious struggle as a predictor of mortality among medically ill elderly patients.

• Although church attendance has been associated with a reduced risk of mortality, no study has examined the impact of religious struggle with an illness on mortality.

• Certain forms of religiousness may increase the risk of death.

• Elderly ill men and women who experience a religious struggle with their illness appear to be at increased risk of death, even after controlling for baseline health, mental health status, and demographic factors.

Cancer survivors with unmet needs were more likely to use complementary and alternative

medicine.

– Despite advancements in cancer care, cancer survivors continue to experience a substantial level of physical and emotional unmet needs.

– Cancer survivors who experienced unmet needs within the existing cancer treatment and support system were more likely to use CAM to help with cancer problems.
