Cancer Incidence
• Roughly 1.5 million new cases of cancer every year
• >500,000 deaths from cancer every year• Cancer is 2nd leading cause of death (after
heart disease)• Most common cancers
• Men: Prostate• Women: Breast
• Deadliest cancers• Men: Lung• Women: Lung
![Page 6: Kristine Krafts, M.D. Neoplasia III: Cancer Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5697bf951a28abf838c90d23/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Recent Changes in Death Rates
Decreased death rates:• Cervical cancer (pap smears)• Colon cancer (earlier detection)• Breast cancer (earlier detection)• Lung cancer in men (less smokers)• Some types of leukemia (new treatment)
Increased death rates:• Lung cancer in women (more smokers)

Some Stats
• Breast cancer death rate in US is 5x that in Japan!
• Stomach cancer death rate in Japan is 7x that in US!
• Liver cancer infrequent in US, common in Africa.
• Probably due to environmental (not hereditary) factors.
• Most sporadic cancers are caused by environmental factors.

Environmental Carcinogens
• Sunlight: skin cancer
• Smoking: lung cancer
• Alcohol: liver, breast cancers
• HPV: cervical carcinoma

Occupational carcinogens
Asbestos roofing, tiles mesothelioma
Benzene light oil, solvents leukemia
Beryllium missile fuel lung cancer
Ethylene oxide ripening agents, fumigants leukemia
Radon uranium decay, mines lung cancer
Vinyl chloride refrigerants angiosarcoma and liver cancer
Nickel welding, ceramics nose and liver cancers

Age
• Cancer is more frequent at the two extremes of age.
• Elderly• Frequency of cancer increases with age• Most cancer deaths occur between 55-75
• Children• 10% of all childhood deaths • Leukemia/lymphoma, CNS tumors, sarcoma

Three Types of Hereditary Cancer
• Inherited cancer syndromes
• Familial cancers
• Syndromes of defective DNA repair
![Page 15: Kristine Krafts, M.D. Neoplasia III: Cancer Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5697bf951a28abf838c90d23/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Three Types of Hereditary Cancer
• Inherited cancer syndromes• Dominantly inherited• Retinoblastoma• Familial polyposis coli
![Page 16: Kristine Krafts, M.D. Neoplasia III: Cancer Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5697bf951a28abf838c90d23/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Familial polyposis coli
![Page 17: Kristine Krafts, M.D. Neoplasia III: Cancer Epidemiology](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061616/5697bf951a28abf838c90d23/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Three Types of Hereditary Cancer
• Inherited cancer syndromes
• Familial cancers• Most common sporadic cancers
have familial forms too• Breast, colon, ovary, brain• Occur earlier, are often deadlier

Three Types of Hereditary Cancer
• Inherited cancer syndromes
• Familial cancers
• Syndromes of defective DNA repair• Recessively inherited• Xeroderma pigmentosum
