- Currently, the lung cancer death rate in women is about two-and-a-half times what it was 25 years ago, and lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer death. In comparison, breast cancer death rates were virtually unchanged between 1930 and 1990, and have since decreased. The death rates for stomach and uterine cancers have decreased steadily since 1930; colorectal cancer death rates have been decreasing for over 50 years.
- The next four slides look at the lifetime probability of developing cancer and relative survival rates of cancer. Presently, the risk of an American man developing cancer over his lifetime is one in two. The leading cancer sites are prostate, lung, and colon & rectum.
