Abstract
We investigated the association of prediagnostic use of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) with breast cancer survival among women with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The study cohort was identified from a Finnish nationwide diabetes database, and consisted of women with T2D, who were diagnosed with breast cancer between 2000 and 2011 (n = 3189). The patients were classified according to their previous MHT use: systemic MHT, local MHT, and no history of any MHT. The cumulative mortality from breast cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and other causes in three MHT groups was described by the Aalen-Johansen estimator. The cause-specific mortality rates were analyzed by Cox models, and adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) were estimated for the use of MHT. The breast cancer mortality appeared to be lower among systemic MHT users (HR 0.49, 95% Cl 0.36–0.67) compared with non-users of MHT. The mortality from cardiovascular diseases and from other causes of death was found to be lower among systemic MHT users, (HR 0.49, 95% Cl 0.32–0.74), and (HR 0.51, 95% Cl 0.35–0.76), respectively. In conclusion, prediagnostic systemic MHT use is associated with reduced breast cancer, cardiovascular, and other causes of mortality in women with T2D.
