The overall rate of cancer diagnosis is declining in Canada, but an aging and growing population means the number of cases and deaths due to the disease are estimated to rise, according to a new study. The projected cancer rates for 2022 expect lung cancer to account for nearly a quarter of all cancer deaths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The study, published on Monday in the Canadian Medical Association Journal <\/a>(CMAJ), estimates that 233,900 new cancer cases will be diagnosed in Canada this year, up from an estimated 229,200 cases in 2021. An estimated 85,100 deaths are projected for 2022, up from 84,600 last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAlthough the estimates for diagnoses and death in 2022 are estimated to be higher than past years, we’re seeing that we are making tremendous progress against cancer in Canada,\u201d co-author Dr. Darren Brenner, an epidemiologist at the University of Calgary\u2019s Cumming School of Medicine, said in a phone interview on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSince 1988, where we have a peak rate of cancer deaths, it’s decreased almost 30 per cent since that time, so that’s really a positive news story.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The authors noted that the potential impact of COVID-19 on cancer incidences and mortality were not included in the study\u2019s projections. Earlier this year, an Ontario report found a 34 per cent drop<\/a> in people being diagnosed with cancer in the province in 2020 during the first waves of the pandemic, likely due to an overwhelmed health-care system and fewer visits to the doctor. The sharp decline has raised concerns over the consequence of detecting cancers at later stages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the latest study, an estimated 24.3 per cent of cancer deaths are expected to be attributed to lung cancer, while colorectal cancer is expected to account for 11 per cent, researchers said. Pancreatic cancer is projected to make up 6.7 per cent of deaths, while breast cancers are estimated to account for 6.5 per cent of deaths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe projected high burden of lung cancer indicates a need for increased tobacco control and improvements in early detection and treatment,\u201d the paper said, noting that smoking rates were higher especially among individuals with lower income, those living in rural areas, and First Nations, Inuit and Metis people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSuccess in breast and colorectal cancer screening and treatment likely account for the continued decline in their burden. The limited progress in early detection and new treatments for pancreatic cancer explains why it is expected to be the third leading cause of cancer death in Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IMPACT ON HEALTH CARE SYSTEM<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The impact of cancer on the Canadian population and health care systems is substantial, the authors wrote in the study, which was developed by the Canadian Cancer Statistics Advisory Committee and conducted in collaboration with the Canadian Cancer Society, Statistics Canada and the Public Health Agency of Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn addition to its impact on health, cancer is costly. The economic burden of cancer care in Canada rose from $2.9 billion in 2005 to $7.5 billion in 2012, annually,\u201d the authors wrote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Mary Gospodarowicz, a radiation oncologist with the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, said health care should be talked about in terms of benefit as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe always talk about expense, we don’t talk about the benefit of making people healthier, keeping people healthy, treating people, and then being able to live longer and better,\u201d Gospodarowicz, who was not part of the study, told CTVNews.ca in an interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe don’t think in terms of people living an extra five or extra seven years of life \u2013 being able to work, being able to contribute to the economy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LEADING TYPES OF CANCERS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Researchers made projections for 22 types of cancers, broken down by sex and geography, and found that four leading types of cancers will account for 46 per cent \u2013 nearly half \u2013 of all new cancer diagnoses this year: 30,000 cases of lung cancer, followed by 28,900 cases of breast cancer, 24,600 cases of prostate and 24,300 cases of colorectal cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eastern provinces are generally projected to have a higher rate of incidence and mortality than western provinces, according to the study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two main hypotheses for this regional difference was a larger population of older people in eastern provinces and a higher distribution of risk factors like smoking and alcohol consumption, Brenner said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among men, one in five diagnoses will be for prostate cancer, followed by lung cancer. Among women, breast cancer accounts for one in four diagnoses, also ahead of lung cancer at 13 per cent of cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An estimated 43 per cent of Canadians will be diagnosed with some form of cancer in their lifetime, according to the 2021 Canadian Cancer Statistics report<\/a>, killing more Canadians than any other source. After adjusting to standardize the age groups, males were estimated to have a 34 per cent higher mortality rate than females.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite these numbers, however, the prognosis for many forms of cancer has improved significantly over the last 30 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MORE GRANULAR DATA, HEALTH LITERACY<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Gospodarowicz said the projections released by the group have usually been right, but said that more granular data would offer even greater insight. She pointed to the detailed data gathered during the pandemic that allowed COVID-19 hot spots to be identified so that more resources could be pushed into those areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe same thing has to happen with cancer,\u201d she said, adding the data can be used for planning of resources and care delivery, rather than just for information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe’re talking about increasing screening, increasing early detection, prevention, but there’s probably less effort in trying to engage and inform the public in cancer that there has been for many other diseases, including, obviously the COVID.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Better health literacy allows patients to better advocate for themselves, engage more in their own health care and demand more, she said. She noted that breast cancer screening exams cost money in many countries, but are free in Canada, yet only 70 per cent of women participate in these exams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt’s all free and it’s promoted and yet people don’t take advantage of it. And the same with cervical and other cancer screenings, so better information would make better engagement of the public,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe can do so much more for cancer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brenner agrees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe know that more people could be getting screened. We know we could be doing a better job in making sure everyone gets screened on time,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn terms of helping people survive a cancer diagnosis, it’s important that we continue to invest in novel life saving treatments, both from the research and from the governmental perspective.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The study is based on data from the National Cancer Incidence Reporting System from 1984 to 1991, the Canadian Cancer Registry from between 1992 and 2018 for new incidences. The Canadian Vital Statistics\u2019 Death Database was used for mortality data from 1984 to 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The authors said while the most recent and complete data available was used for their analyses, the complexities around registration and verification of cancer means that there is a considerable lag in data collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe anticipate that measures to combat the spread of COVID-19 have affected many cancer-control activities in Canada. Interruptions in screening programs and diagnostic pathways may have led to a reduction in diagnoses and may result in a shift in some cancers to more advanced stages,\u201d the authors wrote, adding that they expected the pandemic disruption would eventually balance out over the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe hypothesize that the shift to later-diagnosed cancers and any pandemic-related delays in treatment will affect mortality and survival.\u201d <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
