Cancer Facts & Figures 2014
This annual report provides the estimated numbers of new cancer cases and deaths in 2014, as well as current cancer incidence, mortality, and survival statistics and information on cancer symptoms, risk factors, early detection, and treatment. In 2014, there will be an estimated 1,665,540 new cancer cases diagnosed and 585,720 cancer deaths in the US. Cancer remains the second most common cause of death in the US, accounting for nearly 1 of every 4 deaths.? (Please note: The projected numbers of new cancer cases and deaths in 2014 should not be compared with previous years to track cancer trends because they are model-based and vary from year to year for reasons other than changes in cancer occurrence. Age-standardized incidence and death rates should be used to measure cancer trends.)
Cancer Facts & Figures 2014: Special Section
The topic of the special section of Cancer Facts & Figures 2014 is childhood and adolescent cancer. In this section you'll find current information on cancer in children (ages 0 to 14) and adolescents (ages 15 to 19), including incidence and mortality rates and trends, risk factors, and an overview of treatment and outcomes for the major types of cancer that occur during childhood. This special section is intended to inform anyone interested in learning more about cancer in children and adolescents, including policy makers, researchers, clinicians, cancer control advocates, patients, and caregivers.
Cancer Facts & Figures 2014 Supplemental Data
This supplemental data set provides the estimated numbers of new cancer cases and deaths in 2014 by state for 20 cancer sites and by age group for the four major sites (lung, breast, colorectum, and prostate). Also included is the lifetime probability of developing and dying from cancer for 23 cancer types and the estimated number of cancer survivors who were diagnosed within the past 5 years by state. This data can be used as a resource for cancer control planning at the state level, as well as to address questions from the media or constituents. Divisions are encouraged to share this information with staff and volunteers, and to use it with state and local officials, reporters, and other public health and advocacy groups in local communities.
