Population-based cancer staging for oesophageal, gastric, and pancreatic cancer 2012-2014: International Cancer Benchmarking Partnership SurvMark-2

Citadel J. Cabasag, Melina Arnold, Marion Pineros, Eileen Morgan, James Brierley, Jim Hofferkamp, Sean Kehoe, John Butler, Oliver Bucher, Freddie Bray, Isabelle Soerjomataram, D. Maxwell Parkin

Summary: Cancer stage at diagnosis is crucial for managing individual patients and evaluating health care system effectiveness. International comparison of cancer survival by stage is challenging due to lack of standardized recording and variation in stage completeness across countries. Development of stage conversion algorithms and improvement of staging data completeness are recommended for valid international comparison.

Global patterns of Hodgkin lymphoma incidence and mortality in 2020 and a prediction of the future burden in 2040

Deependra Singh, Salvatore Vaccarella, Andrea Gini, Neimar De Paula Silva, Eva Steliarova-Foucher, Freddie Bray

Summary: This study examines the global patterns of Hodgkin lymphoma in 2020 and predicts the future incidence and mortality burden. The findings show that males have consistently higher incidence and mortality rates across different regions. Incidence rates vary significantly by regions, with the highest rates observed in Southern Europe, while mortality rates are elevated in Western Asia and Northern Africa. The study predicts an increase in the number of cases by 2040.

Burden of Kaposi sarcoma according to HIV status: A systematic review and global analysis

Ahmadaye Ibrahim Khalil, Silvia Franceschi, Catherine de Martel, Freddie Bray, Gary M. Clifford

Summary: This study estimates the burden of HIV-associated and non-HIV-associated Kaposi sarcoma (KS) globally by investigating the HIV prevalence and KS cases. The results highlight the significant burden of HIV-associated KS in sub-Saharan Africa, even in the era of combined antiretroviral therapy.

Age-specific burden of cervical cancer associated with HIV: A global analysis with a focus on sub-Saharan Africa

Hawes, Nathalie Broutet, Shona Dalal, Gary M. Clifford

Summary: HIV substantially worsens HPV carcinogenicity and contributes to excess cervical cancer cases, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. Quantifying cervical cancer burden by age and HIV status can inform prevention efforts in this region. HIV has a greater impact on younger women and HIV-attributable cases tend to shift towards younger age groups.

Progress in reducing premature mortality from cancer and cardiovascular disease in the former Soviet Union, 2000-19

Ariana Znaor, Marilys Corbex, Bochen Cao, Mathieu Laversanne, Anton Ryzhov, Vitaly Smelov, Freddie Bray

Summary: Cardiovascular disease is the main cause of premature death in the Newly Independent States, while cancer is the main cause of premature death in the European Union. The NIS has achieved significant reductions in premature cardiovascular disease mortality, but the death probabilities remain five times higher compared to the EU. Limited progress has been made in reducing cancer mortality in the NIS, except for Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, which are on track to meet the 2030 target.

Ovarian cancer today and tomorrow: A global assessment by world region and Human Development Index using GLOBOCAN 2020

Citadel J. Cabasag, Paula J. Fagan, Jacques Ferlay, Jerome Vignat, Mathieu Laversanne, Lihua Liu, Maaike A. Aa, Freddie Bray, Isabelle Soerjomataram

Summary: This study provides an overview of the global burden of ovarian cancer and predicts the future burden, particularly in low Human Development Index (HDI) countries. It shows geographic variations in incidence and mortality rates, with higher burden in low HDI countries. The study highlights the need for global action to reduce the burden and inequality of ovarian cancer in access to quality cancer care and treatment.

Global patterns in testicular cancer incidence and mortality in 2020

Ariana Znaor, Niels Erik Skakkebaek, Ewa Rajpert-De Meyts, Tomislav Kulis, Mathieu Laversanne, Jason Gurney, Diana Sarfati, Katherine A. McGlynn, Freddie Bray

Summary: Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in young men of European ancestry and has been increasing in incidence, although mortality rates have been declining in high-income settings. Globally, testicular cancer is the most common cancer in men aged 15 to 44, with the highest incidence rates in Western, Northern, and Southern Europe and Oceania, and the lowest rates in Asia and Africa. Mortality rates are highest in Central and South America, and lowest in Northern Europe, Northern Africa, and Eastern Asia. There is significant variation in incidence and mortality rates among different countries.

Global patterns of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in 2020

Summary: Global patterns of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in 2020 were evaluated using the GLOBOCAN 2020 database. The study found that Eastern Asia, Northern America, and South-Central Asia had the highest number of NHL cases. Incidence rates were higher in men than in women, with the highest rates in Australia, New Zealand, Northern America, Northern Europe, and Western Europe. The highest mortality rates were found in regions in Africa, Western Asia, and Oceania.

Global burden of HPV-attributable squamous cell carcinoma of the anus in 2020, according to sex and HIV status: A worldwide analysis

Ashish A. Deshmukh, Haluk Damgacioglu, Damien Georges, Kalyani Sonawane, Jacques Ferlay, Freddie Bray, Gary M. Clifford

Summary: Squamous cell carcinoma of the anus (SCCA), caused by HPV, has a higher incidence in persons living with HIV (PLWHIV). Globally, the number of female SCCA cases is twice that of males, with a higher burden in countries with a very high Human Development Index (HDI). Approximately 21% of male SCCA cases globally occur in PLWHIV, while only about 3% of female SCCA cases occur in this population.

Recent Mortality Patterns and Time Trends for the Major Cancers in 47 Countries Worldwide

Ephrem Sedeta, Hyuna Sung, Mathieu Laversanne, Freddie Bray, Ahmedin Jemal

Summary: Using the World Health Organization mortality database, this study examines patterns and trends in cancer mortality rates for eight common forms of cancer in 47 countries across five continents (except Africa). The results show significant variations in cancer-specific mortality rates among countries, with infection-related and tobacco-related cancers having the largest differences. Most countries have seen a decrease in overall cancer mortality rates, except for lung cancer in females and liver cancer in males. The findings emphasize the importance of implementing targeted cancer prevention and control programs globally to reduce the growing cancer burden.

Cancer inequalities in incidence and mortality in the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil 2001-17

Adeylson Guimaraes Ribeiro, Jacques Ferlay, Salvatore Vaccarella, Maria do Rosario Dias de Oliveira Latorre, Jose Humberto Tavares Guerreiro Fregnani, Freddie Bray

Summary: There are significant disparities in cancer incidence and mortality based on area-level socioeconomic status (SES) in Sao Paulo, Brazil. A clear SES-cancer gradient was observed in the city of Sao Paulo, with higher SES areas having higher cancer incidence rates. In the Barretos region, there was no significant social gradient for cancer mortality. In Sao Paulo, higher SES was associated with higher incidence rates for colorectal, lung, female breast, and prostate cancer, while lower SES was associated with higher incidence and mortality rates for cervical cancer in both regions.
