Cancer statistics

In response to frequent requests for up-to-the-minute statistical cancer information, here you will find a comprehensive range of worldwide cancer statistics from sources such as the Office of National Statistics (ONS), the International Agency for the Research on Cancer (IARC) and the World Health Organization (WHO).

These accredited statistical resources relate to UK and international cancer mortality and incidence. National figures may vary and therefore data interpretation instructions from each information provider should be read carefully to assist interpretation.
