Declarations
:
: This study was a population-based observational study conducted using anonymized secondary data from the Marche Regional Cancer Registry and regional administrative health databases. According to Italian regulations, studies based exclusively on anonymized registry and administrative data do not require approval from a local ethics committee or institutional review board, nor individual informed consent. The need for ethics approval was waived in accordance with national legislation and with the competent local ethics committee, the Comitato Etico Territoriale (CET) delle Marche , as no direct patient involvement or identifiable personal data were included in the study. All data were pseudonymized prior to analysis and handled in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (EU Regulation 2016/679). The study was conducted in accordance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki and its subsequent amendments.
