To describe historical incidence trends of two subtypes of gastric cardia cancer. The incidence of gastric cardia cancer has increased in western countries. Prior studies have treated cardia cancer as a single entity, but recent data suggest that there are two distinct subtypes: reflux-related and Helicobacter pylori-related. We conducted a population-based study using Connecticut Tumor Registry data from 1955–2007. Age-adjusted incidence rates (per 100,000 person-years) were calculated for gastric cancer, as a whole and by anatomic subsite, and for esophageal adenocarcinoma. Cardia and non-cardia cancer incidence rates were further adjusted to account for cases with unspecified subsite. Mathematical formulas were derived to calculate incidence rates for reflux-related and H. pylori-related cardia cancer. The adjusted incidence of cardia cancer was 4.0 per 100,000 in 1955–59, decreased to 2.4 per 100,000 in 1965–69 before increasing to 3.4 per 100,000 by 2003–07. The incidence of H. pylori-related cardia cancer decreased from 3.7 to 1.0 per 100,000 over the study period, whereas reflux-related cardia cancer increased progressively from 0.3 to 2.4 per 100,000. The curves for reflux-related cardia cancer and esophageal adenocarcinoma closely mirrored each other, and their combined incidence rose from 0.5 per 100,000 in 1955–59 to 5.6 per 100,000 in 2003–07. The incidence of reflux-related cardia cancer has steadily increased, while H. pylori-related cardia cancer has declined progressively since the mid-20th century. Trends in reflux-related cardia cancer and esophageal adenocarcinoma incidence are very similar, suggesting that these two cancers share a similar etiology and pathophysiologic process.
