In November, 2023, a Working Group of 30 scientists from 11 countries met at the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) in Lyon, France, to finalise their evaluation of the carcinogenicity of two agents: perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), including their corresponding isomers and salts.PFOA was classified as “carcinogenic to humans”(Group 1) based on “sufficient” evidence for cancer in experimental animals and “strong” mechanistic evidence in exposed humans. The evidence for cancer in experimental animals was “sufficient” because an increased incidence of an appropriate combination of benign and malignant neoplasms was observed in both sexes of a single species in a Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) study. The mechanistic evidence was “strong” in exposed humans because PFOA was found to induce epigenetic alterations and to be immunosuppressive. Additionally, there was “limited” evidence for cancer in humans for renal cell carcinoma and testicular cancer. PFOS was classified as “possibly carcinogenic to humans”(Group 2B) based on “strong” mechanistic evidence. The evidence for cancer in experimental animals was “limited” for PFOS, and the evidence regarding cancer in humans was “inadequate”. These assessments will be published in Volume 135 of the
