Abstract:
Background: The aim of this presentation is to provide an update on the economic evaluation of the Australian SunSmart program as well as outline the cost of skin cancer treatment to the Victorian public hospital system. This follows the publication of two recently released published economic evaluations that discusses the potential effects of skin cancer prevention inventions. Aim: 1. To highlight the cost effectiveness of skin cancer prevention in Australia 2. To highlight the costs of skin cancer treatment in the Victorian public hospital system 3. To provide strong evidence to inform governments of the value of skin cancer prevention to reduce the costs of treatment in future years. Methods: Program cost was compared with cost savings to determine the investment return of the program. In a separate study, a prevalence-based cost approach was undertaken in public hospitals in Victoria. Costs were estimated for inpatient admissions, using state service statistics, and outpatient services based on attendance at three hospitals in 2012-13. Cost-effectiveness for prevention was estimated from 'observed vs expected' analysis, together with program expenditure data. Results: With additional $AUD 0.16 ($USD 0.12) per capita investment into skin cancer prevention across Australia from 2011 to 2030, an upgraded SunSmart Program would prevent 45,000 melanoma and 95,000 NMSC cases. Potential savings in future healthcare costs were estimated at $200 million, while productivity gains were significant. A future upgraded SunSmart Program was predicted to be cost-saving from the funder perspective, with an investment return of $3.20 for every additional dollar the Australian governments/funding bodies invested into the program. In relation to the costs to the Victorian public hospital system, total annual costs were $48 million to $56 million. Skin cancer treatment in public hospitals ($9.20∼$10.39 per head/year) was 30-times current public funding in skin cancer prevention ($0.37 per head/year). Conclusion: The study demonstrates the strong economic credentials of the SunSmart Program, with a strong economic rationale for increased investment. Increased funding for skin cancer prevention must be kept high on the public health agenda. This would also have the dual benefit of enabling hospitals to redirect resources to nonpreventable conditions.

Abstract:
BackgroundThe association between systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and cancer risk is unclear.ObjectivesDescribe the association between systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and the risk of cancer development and subsequent 5-year mortality in Western Australia (WA).MethodsPopulation-level cohort study of SLE patients (n=2,111) and general population comparators (n=21,110) hospitalised between 1980–2014. SLE patients (identified by ICD-9-CM: 695.4, 710.0, and ICD-10-AM: L93.0, M32.0) were nearest matched (10:1) for age, sex, Aboriginality, and temporality. Follow-up was from timezero (index SLE hospitalisation) to cancer development, death or 31/12/2014. Using longitudinal linked health data, we determined the risk of cancer development and subsequent 5-year mortality between SLE patients and comparators with Cox proportional hazards regression models.ResultsSLE patients had similar multivariate-adjusted risk (aHR 1.03, 95%CI 0.93, 1.15; P=0.583) of cancer development. Cancer development risk was higher in SLE patients <40 years old (aHR 1.51), and from 1980-1999 (aHR 1.28). SLE patients had higher risk of developing cancer of the oropharynx (aHR 2.13); vulvo-vagina (aHR 3.22); skin (aHR 1.20), and, lymphatic and haematopoietic tissues (aHR 1.78), all P<0.05. SLE patients had reduced risk of breast cancer (aHR 0.64). After cancer development, SLE patients had increased risk of 5-year mortality (aHR 1.16, 95%CI 1.01, 1.33); highest in 40-49 years old (aHR 1.89), and in those with skin (aHR 1.65) or prostate cancer (aHR 4.74).ConclusionHospitalised SLE patients had increased risk of multiple cancers, but a reduced risk of breast cancer. Following cancer development, SLE patients had increased risk of 5-year mortality. Together there is scope to improve cancer prevention and surveillance in SLE patients.AcknowledgementsThe authors wish to thank the staff at the Western Australian Data Linkage Branch and Emergency Department Data Collection, Hospital Morbidity Data Collection, Western Australian Cancer Registry, and Death Registrations.

Class of 2009 Abstract
OBJECTIVES: Skin cancer is particularly prevalent in Arizona, with incidence rates ranking number two worldwide. Pharmacists are useful advocates for educating patients about the risks of skin cancer and methods of prevention. This study was conducted to assess pharmacists’ knowledge of skin cancer and their demographics and to evaluate how these factors impact skin cancer prevention patient counseling. METHODS: Participants were recruited using a listserv from pharmacists that were members of the Arizona Pharmacy Alliance or preceptors of the University of Arizona College of Pharmacy. Subjects completed an online questionnaire consisting of knowledge- based questions, questions about patient counseling preferences and subject demographics. RESULTS: The average score by pharmacists on the Skin Cancer and Sun Exposure Knowledge Indicator was 5.8 + 1.9. Pharmacists living in Arizona for longer times were more likely to know the minimum recommended SPF of sunscreen for adults to use when outdoors (p=0.003) and the factors associated with malignant melanoma prognosis/survival (p=0.004), but were less likely to know the definition of ABCD acronym (p=0.027). Having a family or friend diagnosed with any form of skin cancer or precancerous skin condition led to more pharmacists knowing the risk factors for developing melanoma (p=0.046) and knowing how often to apply water resistant sunscreen (p=0.035). CONCLUSIONS: The length of pharmacy practice in Arizona and having a family member or close friend affected by skin cancer significantly impacted a pharmacists’ knowledge of skin cancer.

Abstract:
Skin cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the United States; it is estimated that the number of Americans who have had a skin cancer in the last three decades is higher than the number for all other cancers combined. Fortunately, there are known prevention methods, effective treatments available for early-stage cases, and behavioral practices that can reduce the risk of secondary and recurrent cancer. However, in spite of these, skin cancer incidence continues to increase and mortality still exists, making skin cancer prevention of the utmost importance. Outlined in this dissertation are factors identify as associated with the development, diagnosis, and prognosis of skin cancer that could be targeted during primary, secondary, and tertiary skin cancer control and prevention interventions in Arizona. Utilizing the 2013 Arizona Behavior Risk Factor Surveillance System survey, aim one of this dissertation investigates factors associated with UVR exposure (as measured by sun protection use and sunburn history) that could be targeted during primary prevention efforts in order to reduce the disease burden. The results of this research are that approximately 20% of Arizona adults are protecting their skin with sunscreen or protective clothing every time they go outdoors and 28% of Arizona adults experienced one or more sunburns in the past 12 months. Compared with males, females were more likely to report that they protect their skin. Other factors associated with use of sun protection were higher education, higher income, good general health, and living in a more urban area. A recent history of sunburns was associated with being non-Hispanic white and a history of indoor tanning. Given that melanoma diagnosed in the earlier progression of the disease is associated with improved prognosis and significantly higher survival rates, secondary prevention interventions are essential to skin cancer control efforts. The second aim of this dissertation was to gain a better understanding of patient and community factors associated with late-stage melanoma diagnosis in Arizona. Based on Arizona Cancer Registry and community-level data, among melanoma patients there is evidence for significant associations between late-stage of diagnosis and being male (OR 1.22 [95%CI1.09-1.37]), non-white (OR 3.15 [95%CI 2.01-4.95]), and Hispanic (OR 2.13 [95%CI 1.61-2.81]). Additionally, access to care was found to influence stage of diagnosis. Residence in a rural area, compared to an urban area, was associated with late-stage melanoma diagnosis. Similarly, zip codes with a dermatologist density of less than 6 dermatologists per 100,000 persons, when compared to zip codes with greater than 12 dermatologists per 100,000 persons, were associated with late-stage melanoma diagnosis. A travel distance to the reporting hospital or clinic of over 40 miles, as compared to travel distance of 20 miles or less, was also associated with melanoma cases being diagnosed at a late-stage. Even after the progression of the disease, skin cancer survivors' prognosis and quality of life can be improved by following healthy lifestyle recommendations. The final aim of this study was to examine at what levels skin cancer survivors are meeting the recommended healthy lifestyle behaviors. Skin cancer survivors' behaviors were similar, with the exception of increased sun protection use, to behaviors among survivors of other non-skin forms of cancer. However, skin cancer survivors were more likely to practice healthy lifestyle behaviors than individuals without a reported history of cancer. Although skin cancer survivor did report better behaviors than non-cancer controls, there was still a considerable amount of survivors not practicing the recommended behaviors. Over 25% of skin cancer survivors only protected their skin during the summer or not at all. Additionally, low levels of other healthy lifestyle behaviors were noted among skin cancer survivors: slightly over half of skin cancer survivors met the physical activity recommendations, approximately half reported receiving their annual influenza vaccination, and less than 20% consumed 5 fruit or vegetable servings daily. This research suggests that there are opportunities for improved clinical and public health interventions targeted at increasing sun protection use, preventing sunburns, reducing disparities associated with late-stage melanoma, and improving healthy lifestyle behaviors among skin cancer survivors.

Abstract:
Background: Skin cancer is the most common cancer worldwide and one of the most preventable cancers. Despite prevention efforts, skin cancer incidence continues to rise among adolescents. This is especially a challenge for the state of Arizona, which has a high incidence of skin cancer. The inconsistent evidence-based practice guidelines for skin cancer prevention create challenges for counseling adolescents. The knowledge, attitudes, and practices of primary skin cancer prevention by nurse practitioners who care for adolescents is unknown in Arizona or elsewhere in the U.S. Purpose: This doctor of nursing practice project investigates knowledge, attitudes, and practices of skin cancer primary prevention by Arizona nurse practitioners caring for adolescents on an outpatient basis and determines congruency of their counseling with primary prevention guidelines. Methods: The design is descriptive cross-sectional. An online survey using Qualtrics software was distributed via professional listservs to eligible Arizona nurse practitioners currently in practice. Participants' knowledge of skin cancer, skin cancer prevention, and current practice guidelines and recommendations were assessed using multiple choice items. Participants' attitudes regarding counseling for skin cancer prevention within the adolescent population and current nurse practitioner behaviors, in relation to current practice guidelines, were measured using Likert-type scales. Outcomes: Thirty-nine nurse practitioners responded to the online survey. Participant overall knowledge regarding skin cancer was moderate to low, and less was known about skin cancer in adolescents. Despite participants' overall positive attitudes toward skin cancer prevention, they reported low rates of skin cancer prevention counseling for adolescents in practice. Skin cancer prevention recommendations, identified by participants as used in practice, were not congruent with established clinical guidelines on counseling for primary prevention of skin cancer in adolescents.

Abstract:
It is widely known that skin cancer is a significant health concern. Studies show that farmers and ranchers are at increased risk of skin cancer, presumed to be secondary to the increased time they spend outdoors and their increased exposure to the sun. This study examined the current sun protection techniques utilized by a sample of North Dakota individuals, who spend the majority of their occupational time outdoors. After collecting information reflecting demographics and current sun protection measures practiced by the sample, educational material focusing on skin cancer prevention and healthy sun behaviors was distributed to the individuals and the primary researcher gave an educational power-point presentation. A post-survey was then given to the sample, identifying the effectiveness of the education, as well as the intentions of the individuals to change. It was found that 74% of participants had never received previous instruction on sunscreen use. The computed odds ratio showed that the intent of participants to observe sunscreen use after the presentation was 3.47 times than before. An encouraging 88% of the participants reported increased intent to complete a self-skin examination post-intervention. The research showed areas for improvement from numerous aspects, including provider and patient education, encouraging preventative techniques while working outdoors, and encouraging regular self-skin examinations. The findings support the importance and effectiveness of verbal communication of health care providers in the family practice setting to verbally discuss skin cancer and sun protection behaviors with their patients, as well as provide patients with written educational information. By identifying the benefits, barriers, and intent of the participants to change, interventions may be implemented.

Abstract:
The folates are a family of structurally similar, water-soluble, B vitamins, documented to play prominently in human health and disease. The potential impact of folate nutrition has been demonstrated by large-scale epidemiological and nutritional studies indicating that decreased folate intake increases the risk of cancer development. Human skin is particularly prone to the development of carcinomas and it is established that skin cancer risk correlates with exposure to the complete carcinogen ultraviolet radiation (UVR) in the form of sunlight. Recently a link between skin, sunlight, and folate has emerged from studies demonstrating that folate species are degraded by exposure to wavelengths of UVR contained within the solar spectrum. It is hypothesized that the unique physiology, function, and environment of skin combine to make skin tissue prone to folate deficiencies and that folate supplementation is a promising strategy for the prevention of skin cancer. However, many questions regarding folate nutrition within human skin must be answered before strategies to modulate folate nutrition may be rationally designed and safely implemented. This work presents novel means to examine skin-specific folate nutrition, including an analytical method to quantify individual folate species in human keratinocytes adaptable for the analysis of intact skin tissue and innovative cultured keratinocyte models of both acute and chronic folate deficiencies. It is demonstrated that folate deficiencies in skin tissue are possible and even likely as proliferating human keratinocytes are unable to maintain intracellular folate concentrations when nutrient conditions are limited and exposure to UVR results in biologically relevant folate degradation. Folate deficiency in human keratinocytes is observed to have potential pro-carcinogenic consequences including S-phase proliferation arrest, increased inherent DNA strand breaks, increased uracil misincorporation into DNA, and deficiencies in DNA damage repair, which are reversed when folate nutrient levels are optimized. The presented work characterizes the relationship between intracellular folate species and environmental carcinogens known to induce skin cancer and addresses challenges facing supplementation strategies for specifically improving folate nutriture in human skin. In total, this report broadens our understanding of folate nutrition in human skin and demonstrates that optimization of folate nutrition holds promise as a cancer preventive strategy.

Abstract:
Overview Skin cancer prevention is a component of the new Cancer Plan 2022–27, which guides the work of the Cancer Institute NSW. To lessen the impact of skin cancer on the community, the Cancer Institute NSW works closely with the NSW Skin Cancer Prevention Advisory Committee, comprising governmental and non-governmental organisation representatives, to develop and implement the NSW Skin Cancer Prevention Strategy. Primary Health Networks and primary care providers are seen as important stakeholders in this work. To guide improvements in skin cancer prevention and inform the development of the next NSW Skin Cancer Prevention Strategy, an up-to-date review of the evidence on the effectiveness and feasibility of skin cancer prevention activities in primary care is required. A research team led by the Daffodil Centre, a joint venture between the University of Sydney and Cancer Council NSW, was contracted to undertake an Evidence Check review to address the questions below. Evidence Check questions This Evidence Check aimed to address the following questions: Question 1: What skin cancer primary prevention activities can be effectively administered in primary care settings? As part of this, identify the key components of such messages, strategies, programs or initiatives that have been effectively implemented and their feasibility in the NSW/Australian context. Question 2: What are the main barriers and enablers for primary care providers in delivering skin cancer primary prevention activities within their setting? Summary of methods The research team conducted a detailed analysis of the published and grey literature, based on a comprehensive search. We developed the search strategy in consultation with a medical librarian at the University of Sydney and the Cancer Institute NSW team, and implemented it across the databases Embase, MEDLINE, PsycInfo, Scopus, Cochrane Central and CINAHL. Results were exported and uploaded to Covidence for screening and further selection. The search strategy was designed according to the SPIDER tool for Qualitative and Mixed-Methods Evidence Synthesis, which is a systematic strategy for searching qualitative and mixed-methods research studies. The SPIDER tool facilitates rigour in research by defining key elements of non-quantitative research questions. We included peer-reviewed and grey literature that included skin cancer primary prevention strategies/ interventions/ techniques/ programs within primary care settings, e.g. involving general practitioners and primary care nurses. The literature was limited to publications since 2014, and for studies or programs conducted in Australia, the UK, New Zealand, Canada, Ireland, Western Europe and Scandinavia. We also included relevant systematic reviews and evidence syntheses based on a range of international evidence where also relevant to the Australian context. To address Question 1, about the effectiveness of skin cancer prevention activities in primary care settings, we summarised findings from the Evidence Check according to different skin cancer prevention activities. To address Question 2, about the barriers and enablers of skin cancer prevention activities in primary care settings, we summarised findings according to the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). The CFIR is a framework for identifying important implementation considerations for novel interventions in healthcare settings and provides a practical guide for systematically assessing potential barriers and facilitators in preparation for implementing a new activity or program. We assessed study quality using the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) levels of evidence. Key findings We identified 25 peer-reviewed journal articles that met the eligibility criteria and we included these in the Evidence Check. Eight of the studies were conducted in Australia, six in the UK, and the others elsewhere (mainly other European countries). In addition, the grey literature search identified four relevant guidelines, 12 education/training resources, two Cancer Care pathways, two position statements, three reports and five other resources that we included in the Evidence Check. Question 1 (related to effectiveness) We categorised the studies into different types of skin cancer prevention activities: behavioural counselling (n=3); risk assessment and delivering risk-tailored information (n=10); new technologies for early detection and accompanying prevention advice (n=4); and education and training programs for general practitioners (GPs) and primary care nurses regarding skin cancer prevention (n=3). There was good evidence that behavioural counselling interventions can result in a small improvement in sun protection behaviours among adults with fair skin types (defined as ivory or pale skin, light hair and eye colour, freckles, or those who sunburn easily), which would include the majority of Australians. It was found that clinicians play an important role in counselling patients about sun-protective behaviours, and recommended tailoring messages to the age and demographics of target groups (e.g. high-risk groups) to have maximal influence on behaviours. Several web-based melanoma risk prediction tools are now available in Australia, mainly designed for health professionals to identify patients’ risk of a new or subsequent primary melanoma and guide discussions with patients about primary prevention and early detection. Intervention studies have demonstrated that use of these melanoma risk prediction tools is feasible and acceptable to participants in primary care settings, and there is some evidence, including from Australian studies, that using these risk prediction tools to tailor primary prevention and early detection messages can improve sun-related behaviours. Some studies examined novel technologies, such as apps, to support early detection through skin examinations, including a very limited focus on the provision of preventive advice. These novel technologies are still largely in the research domain rather than recommended for routine use but provide a potential future opportunity to incorporate more primary prevention tailored advice. There are a number of online short courses available for primary healthcare professionals specifically focusing on skin cancer prevention. Most education and training programs for GPs and primary care nurses in the field of skin cancer focus on treatment and early detection, though some programs have specifically incorporated primary prevention education and training. A notable example is the Dermoscopy for Victorian General Practice Program, in which 93% of participating GPs reported that they had increased preventive information provided to high-risk patients and during skin examinations. Question 2 (related to barriers and enablers) Key enablers of performing skin cancer prevention activities in primary care settings included: • Easy access and availability of guidelines and point-of-care tools and resources • A fit with existing workflows and systems, so there is minimal disruption to flow of care • Easy-to-understand patient information • Using the waiting room for collection of risk assessment information on an electronic device such as an iPad/tablet where possible • Pairing with early detection activities • Sharing of successful programs across jurisdictions. Key barriers to performing skin cancer prevention activities in primary care settings included: • Unclear requirements and lack of confidence (self-efficacy) about prevention counselling • Limited availability of GP services especially in regional and remote areas • Competing demands, low priority, lack of time • Lack of incentives.
