SEER Limited-Use cancer incidence data with associated population data. Geographic areas available are county and SEER registry. The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program of the National Cancer Institute collects and distributes high quality, comprehensive cancer data from a number of population-based cancer registries. Data include patient demographics, primary tumor site, morphology, stage at diagnosis, first course of treatment, and follow-up for vital status. The SEER Program is the only comprehensive source of population-based information in the United States that includes stage of cancer at the time of diagnosis and survival rates within each stage.

This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of applying a method of estimating the incidence of cancer to regions of the state of São Paulo, Brazil, from real data (not estimated) and retrospectively comparing the results obtained with the official estimates. A method based on mortality and on the incidence to mortality (I/M) ration was used according to sex, age, and tumor location. In the I/M numerator, new cases of cancer were used from the population records of Jaú and São Paulo from 2006-2010; in the denominator, deaths from 2006-2010 in the respective areas, extracted from the national mortality system. The estimates resulted from the multiplication of I/M by the number of cancer deaths in 2010 for each region. Population data from the 2010 Demographic Census were used to estimate incidence rates. For the adjustment by age, the world standard population was used. We calculated the relative differences between the gross incidence rates estimated in this study and the official ones. Age-adjusted cancer incidence rates were 260.9/100,000 for men and 216.6/100,000 for women. Prostate cancer was the most common in males, whereas breast cancer was most common in females. Differences between the rates of this study and the official rates were 3.3% and 1.5% for each sex. The estimated incidence was compatible with the officially presented state profile, indicating that the application of real data did not alter the morbidity profile, while it did indicate different risk magnitudes. Despite the over-representativeness of the cancer registry with greater population coverage, the selected method proved feasible to point out different patterns within the state.

The graph displays cancer mortality rates by gender in the United States from 1999 to 2023. The x-axis represents the years, labeled from '99 to '23, while the y-axis indicates the mortality rates per 100,000 population for males, females, and the total population. Over this 24-year span, male mortality rates declined from a high of 252.8 in 1999 to a low of 165.4 in 2023. Female mortality rates decreased from 167.2 in 1999 to 123.6 in 2023. The total mortality rate dropped from 200.7 in 1999 to 141.5 in 2023. The data shows a consistent downward trend in cancer mortality rates for both genders and overall. The graph is presented in a line chart format, highlighting the yearly changes and trends in cancer mortality by gender.

BackgroundThe success of the “war on cancer” initiated in 1971 continues to be debated, with trends in cancer mortality variably presented as evidence of progress or failure. We examined temporal trends in death rates from all-cancer and the 19 most common cancers in the United States from 1970–2006.Methodology/Principal FindingsWe analyzed trends in age-standardized death rates (per 100,000) for all cancers combined, the four most common cancers, and 15 other sites from 1970–2006 in the United States using joinpoint regression model. The age-standardized death rate for all-cancers combined in men increased from 249.3 in 1970 to 279.8 in 1990, and then decreased to 221.1 in 2006, yielding a net decline of 21% and 11% from the 1990 and 1970 rates, respectively. Similarly, the all-cancer death rate in women increased from 163.0 in 1970 to 175.3 in 1991 and then decreased to 153.7 in 2006, a net decline of 12% and 6% from the 1991 and 1970 rates, respectively. These decreases since 1990/91 translate to preventing of 561,400 cancer deaths in men and 205,700 deaths in women. The decrease in death rates from all-cancers involved all ages and racial/ethnic groups. Death rates decreased for 15 of the 19 cancer sites, including the four major cancers, with lung, colorectum and prostate cancers in men and breast and colorectum cancers in women.Conclusions/SignificanceProgress in reducing cancer death rates is evident whether measured against baseline rates in 1970 or in 1990. The downturn in cancer death rates since 1990 result mostly from reductions in tobacco use, increased screening allowing early detection of several cancers, and modest to large improvements in treatment for specific cancers. Continued and increased investment in cancer prevention and control, access to high quality health care, and research could accelerate this progress.

The graph illustrates the number of deaths from cancer in the United States over the period from 1999 to 2023. The x-axis represents the years, labeled with two-digit abbreviations from '99 to '23, while the y-axis displays the annual number of cancer-related deaths. Throughout this 25-year span, the number of deaths ranges from a minimum of 549,829 in 1999 to a maximum of 613,349 in 2023. The data shows a gradual increase in annual deaths over the years. Notably, the number surpassed 550,000 in 2000 with 553,080 deaths, reached 574,738 in 2010, and exceeded 600,000 in 2020 with 602,347 deaths. The figures continued to rise, culminating in the highest recorded number of 613,349 deaths in 2023.

ABSTRACT Objective To determine and discuss cancer mortality rates in southern Brazil between 1988 and 2012. Methods This was a critical review of literature based on analysis of data concerning incidence and mortality of prostate cancer, breast cancer, bronchial and lung cancer, and uterine and ovarian cancer. Data were collected from the online database of the Brazil Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva. Results The southern Brazil is the leading region of cancer incidence and mortality. Data on the cancer profile of this population are scarce especially in the States of Santa Catarina and Paraná. We observed inconsistency between data from hospital registers and death recorded. Conclusion Both cancer incidence and the mortality are high in Brazil. In addition, Brazil has great numbers of registers and deaths for cancer compared to worldwide rates. Regional risk factors might explain the high cancer rates.

ObjectiveTriple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a more aggressive subtype resistant to conventional treatments with a poorer prognosis. This study was to update the status of TNBC and the temporal changes of its incidence rate in the US.MethodsWomen diagnosed with breast cancer during 2011–2019 were obtained from the National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR) and Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) Program SEER*Stat Database which covers the entire population of the US. The TNBC incidence and its temporal trends by race, age, region (state) and disease stage were determined during the period.ResultsA total of 238,848 (or 8.8%) TNBC women were diagnosed during the study period. TNBC occurred disproportionally higher in women of Non-Hispanic Black, younger ages, with cancer at a distant stage or poorly/undifferentiated. The age adjusted incidence rate (AAIR) for TNBC in all races decreased from 14.8 per 100,000 in 2011 to 14.0 in 2019 (annual percentage change (APC) = −0.6, P = 0.024). Incidence rates of TNBC significantly decreased with APCs of −0.8 in Non-Hispanic White women, −1.3 in West and −0.7 in Northeastern regions. Women with TNBC at the age of 35–49, 50–59, and 60–69 years, and the disease at the regional stage displayed significantly decreased trends. Among state levels, Mississippi (20.6) and Louisiana (18.9) had the highest, while Utah (9.1) and Montana (9.6) had the lowest AAIRs in 2019. New Hampshire and Indiana had significant and highest decreases, while Louisiana and Arkansas had significant and largest increases in AAIR. In individual races, TNBC displayed disparities in temporal trends among age groups, regions and disease stages. Surprisingly, Non-Hispanic White and Hispanic TNBC women (0–34 years), and Non-Hispanic Black women (≥70 years) during the entire period, as well as Asian or Pacific Islander women in the South region had increased trends between 2011 and 2017.ConclusionOur study demonstrates an overall decreased trend of TNBC incidence in the past decade. Its incidence displayed disparities among races, age groups, regions and disease stages. Special attention is needed for a heavy burden in Non-Hispanic Black and increased trends in certain groups.
