Premature Aging in Young Cancer Survivors.
Journal of the National Cancer Institute 2019 March 2
Advances in early detection, treatment, and supportive care have resulted in an estimated 16 million cancer survivors who are alive in the United States today. Outcomes have notably improved for children with cancer as well as young adults with hematologic malignancies due, in part, to the intensification of cancer treatment, including the use of hematopoietic cell transplantation. Emerging evidence suggests that these cancer survivors are at risk for premature aging, manifesting as early onset of chronic health conditions and a higher risk of mortality compared with the general population. Although the pathophysiology of premature aging in these survivors has not been fully elucidated, emerging concepts in aging research could help shed light on this phenomenon. Longitudinal studies are needed to better characterize aging in these survivors, setting the stage for much-needed interventions to halt the trajectory of accelerated aging. These efforts will be enhanced through collaborations between translational researchers, clinical oncologists, primary care providers, geriatricians, patient caretakers, and other stakeholders committed to improving the lives of the growing population of survivors.
