Breast Cancer Outcome Details (Form 122/130), CaD ppts

File NameData as ofPopulationData collectedOne row perRows
outc_bc_cad_inv.dat2/17/2024CaDMain, Ext1Outcome Form2,203

This file has one row for every form 122 or 130 recording in situ or invasive breast cancer outcome(s). A participant may have more than one of these forms. Only the first occurrence of each outcome is counted, e.g. Limiting the file to rows where BREASTINV=1 will find a single row for each participant with a invasive breast cancer outcome. Breast Cancers derived solely from a cause of death do not have an associated form 122 or 130 so are not included. File contains outcomes through Ext1.

Usage Notes:

Defined as a breast cancer from a Death or the first adjudication where the form 122 or 130 details indicate an invasive cancer. Breast Cancer Invasive is adjudicated for CT and OS participants. WHI adjudicated all reports of breast cancer for a ppt until the first invasive Breast Cancer. i.e. The first Invasive Breast Cancer may not be the first Breast Cancer. This file does not include cancers determined solely by the cause of death.

ICDCODE - ICD-O-2 site code

Usage Notes:

All centrally adjudicated cancers (F130) have an ICD-O-2 code. The only locally adjudicated cancers with a code are those marked as "other" on F122. F122 codes do not include a decimal. See the SEER coding section of the data prep/use document for details. A description of the ICD site codes can be found in the reference file seer_icd_site_codes.dat by merging on the ICDCODE variable.

BEHAVIOR - Tumor Behavior

Usage Notes:

For cancers that have been SEER coded, tumor behavior comes from the 5th digit of the morphology (see MRPHHISTB). For cancers that have not been SEER coded, F130/Question 3 or F122/Question 4 is used.

Usage Notes:

ICD-O-2 codes were used for all cancers except Lymphoma and Leukemia. WHI used ICD-O-3 codes for those cancers. WHI used SEER 1988, 2nd edition rules when coding cancers, see the SEER coding section of the data prep/use document for details. A description of the histology/behavior codes can be found in the reference file seer_icd_hist_codes.dat by merging on the MRPHHISTB variable.

Evidence of Disease (SEER):first section

Usage Notes:

When size doesnt make sense, this field is used for other purposes (e.g. Leukemias have no size, this field records AIDS status). Size is usually measured in mm, though it may vary by cancer type. Even for cancers that do have a size, not all values indicate an actual size (e.g. 2 for many cancers means "<=2mm", but for breast cancer it means "Mammographic diagnosis only, tumor not clinically palpable" ). WHI used the SEER 1988, 2nd edition rules for coding cancers. See the SEER coding section of the data prep/use document for details.
