Studies have been conducted to investigate the risk of occurrence between digestive system tumors (DST) and thyroid cancer (TC) . However, existing studies have tended to focus more on the risk of developing SPC and less on the impact of SPC on the survival of cancer survivors. In this study, using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database, we aimed to explore the impact ofTC on the survival of patients with DST by data between 2000 and 2018. The study employed the standardized incidence ratio to assess the relative risk of SPC, propensity score matching was conducted to mitigate confounding effects, Kaplan-Meier, Cox proportional risk model and competitive risk model were used to analyze the factors affecting the overall survival and cancer-specific survival. We furthermore explored the influence of pathological types and radiotherapy ofTC on the survival of DST patients. 518,901 patients with DST only, 801 patients with TC occurring earlier than DST (TC-1st), and 744 patients with DST occurring earlier thanTC (DST-1st) were included. The total incidence rate of small intestine cancer after TC was higher than that of the general population, and the incidence of TC after DST was higher than in the general population. DST patients with a history ofTC had better overall survival and lower cancer-specific mortality and this difference was particularly significant in patients with DST-1st. In addition, radiotherapy forTC had no effect on cancer-specific mortality in patients with DST.  \nKeywords Digestive system tumors, Thyroid cancer, Second primary cancer, Survival analysis, Competitive risk model  \nAbbreviations  \nDST Digestive system tumors SPC Second primary cancer EC Esophageal cancer  \nGC Gastric cancer  \nSIC Small intestine cancer  \nCC Colon cancer  \nRC Rectal cancer  \nHCC Hepatocellular carcinoma PC Pancreatic cancer  \nTC Thyroid cancer  \nSIR Standardized incidence ratio  \nPSM Propensity score matching  \nOS Overall survival  \nCSS Cancer-specific survival  \nDigestive system tumors (DST), which mainly include gastric, esophageal, liver, pancreatic and colorectal cancers, are the leading cause of death worldwide1.

The high morbidity and mortality rates that characterize DST warrant further study of their survival characteristics. With improved diagnostic sensitivity and advances in treatment, cancer patients are surviving longer, which, combined with the long-term side effects of chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy and the continuing influence of genetic and behavioral risk factors3,4, places these cancer survivors at increased risk of developing a second primary cancer (SPC)5–7.
