每年，美国癌症协会（ACS）估计当年美国预计的新发癌症病例和死亡人数，并根据国家癌症研究所、疾病控制和预防中心、以及北美中央癌症登记协会和国家卫生统计中心的死亡率数据。本报告考虑了截至2003年的发病率数据和截至2004年的死亡率数据。发病率和死亡率按2000年美国标准百万人口的年龄标准化，预计2007年美国将发生总计1，444，920例新发癌症病例和559，650例癌症死亡。癌症发病率和死亡率的显著趋势包括：从1995年至2003年，男性所有癌症合并的年龄标准化、延迟调整的发病率稳定;女性发病率持续增加，每年增加0.3%; 1991年至2004年，男性和女性合并的年龄标准化癌症死亡率总共下降13.6%。本报告还按研究中心、性别、种族/民族、地理区域和日历年检查了癌症发病率、死亡率和生存率，以及选定研究中心对总体趋势的比例贡献。虽然美国癌症死亡的绝对人数连续第二年下降（2003年至2004年减少了3 000多人），而且在降低死亡率和提高存活率方面取得了很大进展，但在85岁以下的人中，癌症死亡人数仍然多于心脏病。通过支持新的发现和在所有人群中应用现有的癌症控制知识，可以加速进一步的进展。
Each year, the American Cancer Society (ACS) estimates the number of new cancer cases and deaths expected in the United States in the current year and compiles the most recent data on cancer incidence, mortality, and survival based on incidence data from the National Cancer Institute, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the North American Association of Central Cancer Registries and mortality data from the National Center for Health Statistics. This report considers incidence data through 2003 and mortality data through 2004. Incidence and death rates are age-standardized to the 2000 US standard million population, A total of 1,444,920 new cancer cases and 559,650 deaths for cancers are projected to occur in the United States in 2007. Notable trends in cancer incidence and mortality rates include stabilization of the age-standardized, delay-adjusted incidence rates for all cancers combined in men from 1995 through 2003; a continuing increase in the incidence rate by 0.3% per year in women; and a 13.6% total decrease in age-standardized cancer death rates among men and women combined between 1991 and 2004. This report also examines cancer incidence, mortality, and survival by site, sex, race/ethnicity, geographic area, and calendar year, as well as the proportionate contribution of selected sites to the overall trends. While the absolute number of cancer deaths decreased for the second consecutive year in the United States (by more than 3,000 from 2003 to 2004) and much progress has been made in reducing mortality rates and improving survival, cancer still accounts for more deaths than heart disease in persons under age 85 years. Further progress can be accelerated by supporting new discoveries and by applying existing cancer control knowledge across all segments of the population.
