Abbreviations: CVD, cardiovascular diease; HR, hazard ratio; NC, not calculated; SEER, Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results; SPC, second primary cancer.

a

All race categories are exclusive of Hispanic ethnicity.

b

Adjusted for sex (female, male), prior cancer type or system (eTable 3 in Supplement 1), prior cancer stage (localized, regional, distant, unknown or unstaged, or blank), and year (2000-2004, 2005-2009, or 2010-2013) and age (5-year interval) at SPC diagnosis.

c

Adjusted for the variables in model 1 and county-level annual household income (<$35 000-$59 000, $60 000-$74 999, ≥$75 000, or unknown) and county-level urbanity (large metropolitan, small metropolitan, nonmetropolitan, or unknown).

d

Adjusted for the variables in model 2 and SPC type, stage, subtype (eTable 4 in Supplement 1), and treatment (including receipt of surgery, radiotherapy, or chemotherapy for SPC).

e

Calculated using the formula only when the HRs in models 1 and 3 were higher than 1.00: [model 1 HR − model 3 HR] / [model 1 HR] × 100.
