Cancer Facts & Figures 2022 is an educational companion for a scientific paper published in the American Cancer Society journal, CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians. The Facts & Figures annual report provides:

  • Estimated numbers of new cancer cases and deaths in 2022 (In 2022, there will be an estimated 1.9 million new cancer cases diagnosed and 609,360 cancer deaths in the United States.)
  • Current cancer incidence, mortality, and survival statistics
  • Information on cancer symptoms, risk factors, early detection, and treatment

Please note: The projected numbers of new cancer cases and deaths in 2022 should not be compared with previous years to track cancer trends because they are model-based and vary from year to year for reasons other than changes in cancer occurrence. Age-standardized incidence and death rates should be used to measure cancer trends. In addition, estimates for 2022 do not reflect the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic because they are based on incidence and mortality data reported through 2018 and 2019, respectively.
