简要总结
Introduction: Sarcomas are rare tumors of connective tissue. The exact overall incidence of sarcomas is unknown due to diagnostic difficulties and the various histological subtypes (over 80 subtypes). However, the apparent increasing incidence of sarcomas suggests environmental causes such as pesticides. Except for some specific factors (i.e. ionizing radiation, vinyl chloride, dioxin, and genetic predispositions) the scientific knowledge on the aetiology of sarcomas is sparse and inconsistent. France is a particularly appropriate country to set up a study investigating the causes of sarcoma occurrence due to the French organization in treatment and care of sarcoma patients, which is highly structured and revolved around national expert networks. The main objective of the ETIOSARC project is to study the role of lifestyle, environmental and occupational factors in the occurrence of sarcomas among adults from a multicentric population-based case-control study.
Methods and analysis: Cases will be all incident cases (older than 18 years old) identified in 15 districts of France covered by a cancer registry and/or a reference center in sarcoma's patient care over a three-year period with an inclusion start date ranging from the 1st October 2018 to the 1st January 2020 and histologically confirmed by a second review of the diagnosis. Two controls will be individually-matched by sex, age (5-years group), and districts of residence and randomly selected from electoral list. A standardized questionnaire will be administered by a trained interviewer in order to gather information about occupational and residential history, demographic and socioeconomic characteristics and lifestyle factors. At the end of the interview, a saliva sample will be systematically proposed.
This study will permit to validate or not already suspected risk factors for sarcomas such as phenoxyherbicides, chlorophenol and to generate new hypothesis to increase our understanding about the genetic and environmental contributions in the carcinogenicity process.
详细描述
The main objective of the ETIOSARC study is to assess the role of lifestyle, environmental and occupational factors in the occurrence of sarcomas among adults from a multicenter population-based case-control study.
Specific objectives are:
- To identify environmental risk factors for sarcomas as a whole and for the most frequent subtypes;
- To investigate the interactions between gene polymorphisms and environmental exposures in sarcoma susceptibility;
- To assess whether some specific genetic characteristics of sarcoma' tumors are associated with environmental exposures; We will also explore the feasibility of classifying sarcomas by genetics types (simple vs complex genomic profile) as part of the objective of identifying environmental risk factors.
Study design
The ETIOSARC study is a prospective multicenter population-based case-control study. This study is restricted to French geographical areas (further called districts) that meet at least one of these four criteria:

结局指标
主要结局
Odds ratios measuring the association between environmental exposures under study (environmental, occupational and lifestyle exposures) and sarcoma occurence
时间窗: 1 year
The relationship between case/control status and each exposure variable will be estimated by odds ratios and their 95% confidence intervals using conditional logistic regression models.
