Data on cancer deaths were obtained from the National Center for Health Statistics National Vital Statistics System. Trends in age\u2010standardized incidence and death rates for all cancers combined and for the leading cancer types by sex, race, and ethnicity were estimated by joinpoint analysis and expressed as the annual percent change. Stage distribution and 5\u2010year survival by stage at diagnosis were calculated for breast cancer, colon and rectum (colorectal) cancer, lung and bronchus cancer, and melanoma of the skin.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title><jats:p>Overall cancer incidence rates from 2008 to 2014 decreased by 2.2% per year among men but were stable among women. Overall cancer death rates from 1999 to 2015 decreased by 1.8% per year among men and by 1.4% per year among women. Among men, incidence rates during the most recent 5\u2010year period (2010\u20102014) decreased for 7 of the 17 most common cancer types, and death rates (2011\u20102015) decreased for 11 of the 18 most common types. Among women, incidence rates declined for 7 of the 18 most common cancers, and death rates declined for 14 of the 20 most common cancers. Death rates decreased for cancer sites, including lung and bronchus (men and women), colorectal (men and women), female breast, and prostate. Death rates increased for cancers of the liver (men and women); pancreas (men and women); brain and other nervous system (men and women); oral cavity and pharynx (men only); soft tissue, including heart (men only); nonmelanoma skin (men only); and uterus. Incidence and death rates were higher among men than among women for all racial and ethnic groups. For all cancer sites combined, black men and white women had the highest incidence rates compared with other racial groups, and black men and black women had the highest death rates compared with other racial groups. Non\u2010Hispanic men and women had higher incidence and mortality rates than those of Hispanic ethnicity. Five\u2010year survival for cases diagnosed from 2007 through 2013 ranged from 100% (stage I) to 26.5% (stage IV) for female breast cancer, from 88.1% (stage I) to 12.6% (stage IV) for colorectal cancer, from 55.1% (stage I) to 4.2% (stage IV) for lung and bronchus cancer, and from 99.5% (stage I) to 16% (stage IV) for melanoma of the skin. Among children, overall cancer incidence rates increased by 0.8% per year from 2010 to 2014, and overall cancer death rates decreased by 1.5% per year from 2011 to 2015.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title><jats:p>For all cancer sites combined, cancer incidence rates decreased among men but were stable among women. Overall, there continue to be significant declines in cancer death rates among both men and women. Differences in rates and trends by race and ethnic group remain. Progress in reducing cancer mortality has not occurred for all sites. Examining stage distribution and 5\u2010year survival by stage highlights the potential benefits associated with early detection and treatment. <jats:bold><jats:italic>Cancer<\/jats:italic> 2018;124:2785\u20102800<\/jats:bold>. \u00a9 <jats:italic>2018 American Cancer Society<\/jats:italic><\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/cncr.31551","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,5,22]],"date-time":"2018-05-22T09:31:16Z","timestamp":1526981476000},"page":"2785-2800","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":922,"title":["Annual Report to the Nation on the Status of Cancer, part I: National cancer statistics"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"124","author":[{"given":"Kathleen A.","family":"Cronin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences National Cancer Institute Bethesda Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andrew J.","family":"Lake","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Information Management Services, Inc.
