This study investigates whether and how cancer characteristics are associated with disability status (Social Security Disability Insurance) and timing of onset among prime working-age cancer survivors.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We used the 1999 to 2022 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results file linked with Medicare data. Outcome was a categorical variable indicating no disability, disability onset \u22652\u2009years and 0-&amp;lt;2\u2009years before cancer diagnosis, and 0-&amp;lt;2\u2009years and \u22652\u2009years after diagnosis. Primary independent variables were 16 categories of cancer sites and stage at diagnosis. We employed a multivariable multinomial probit regression model, adjusting for patient and neighborhood characteristics, overall and by 5-year survival.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Of the total sample (n\u2009=\u200997\u2009642), 62.2%, 22.4%, and 15.4% had no, precancer, and postcancer disability, respectively. Likelihood of disability and timing of disability onset differed by cancer sites. Compared with prostate cancer survivors (lowest prevalence of disability), adjusted predicted probability of having disability \u22652\u2009years before diagnosis was higher by 0.46 (95% CI = 0.43 to 0.49) among liver cancer survivors, whereas having disability &amp;lt;2\u2009years after diagnosis was higher by 0.29 (95% CI = 0.27 to 0.32) among brain cancer survivors. Nearly all &amp;lt;5-year cancer survivors had disability, and the patterns of association varied significantly by 5-year survival.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Clinically assessed disability is strongly associated with specific cancer sites.
