1 The Cancer Burden in California Janet Bates MD MPH California Cancer Registry California Department of Public Health April 25, 2012

2 Goals Introduce you to the California Cancer Registry (CCR) Provide an overview of California s cancer burden Highlight cancers associated with overweight/obesity and lack of sufficient physical activity Present data on California s cancer burden compared to that of the U.S.

3 The California Cancer Registry The mission of the California Cancer Registry is to serve the public by collecting statewide data, and conducting surveillance and research into the causes, controls, and cures of cancer, and communicating results to the public.

4 The California Cancer Registry Established by state law passed in 1985 The CCR has collected information on all new cancer cases and deaths for the entire state of California since 1988 Hospitals and physicians are required to report cancer cases to the CCR

5 The California Cancer Registry We receive over 200,000 cancer case reports each year After weeding out duplicate reports, we end up with about 170,000 new cases added to the database each year We now have over 4 million cases diagnosed from 1988 forward in our database

6 Cancer Surveillance Terms Incidence = number of new cancers diagnosed in a population during a specific time period Mortality = number of cancer-related deaths in a population during a specific time period Incidence Rate or Mortality Rate = number of new cancers or cancer-related deaths occurring in a population during a specific time period, divided by the population at risk (often expressed as the number of new cancers or deaths per 100,000 population at risk)

7

8 The Cancer Burden: Objective #1 By 2015, decrease the overall cancer incidence rate in California by 5%, from a baseline rate of 431 per 100,000 in 2009 to a target rate of 409 per 100,000 in 2015

9 The Cancer Burden: Objective #1

10 Cancer Incidence in California Cancer incidence rates in California declined by 7% from 1988 to 2009 This decrease was driven by declines in lung, prostate, colon and rectum, and bladder cancers among men and breast, colon and rectum, and lung cancers among women Despite these improvements, nearly one out of every two Californians born today will develop cancer at some point in their lives

41 Summary In general, cancer incidence and mortality rates in California are lower than the rest of the United States Overall cancer incidence and mortality rates in California are declining but disparities by race/ethnicity still exist The decline in California s cancer incidence is being threatened by an obesity epidemic

42 Summary California adults and teens have a high prevalence of excess weight and insufficient physical activity Cancers associated with excess weight and lack of sufficient physical activity are on the rise in California

43 Summary The CCR is a rich resource for cancer information in California This information supports cancer control efforts and cancer research that are vital to winning the war on cancer We hope that this information will be helpful to you all, and welcome the opportunity to work with you again
