    Research Is the risk of cancer in Australia overstated? The importance of competing mortality for estimating lifetime risk Anthea C Bach1,2,* , Kelvin SE Lo2,3,*, Thanya Pathirana4,5, Paul P Glasziou5 , Alexandra L Barratt6, Mark A Jones5,7, Katy JL Bell6 Abstract The known: The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW), like many cancer registries, calculates cumulative risk Objectives: To calculate lifetime risks of cancer diagnosis and from cross- sectional data to estimate lifetime risks of cancer cancer- specific death, adjusted for competing mortality, and to diagnosis and mortality. Its method assumes there are no compare these estimates with the corresponding risks published by competing causes of death, which may lead to overestimation of the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW). lifetime risk.

  • Lung Cancer Screening Enquiry – Consultation Paper
    Lung Cancer Screening enquiry – consultation paper On 1 August 2019, the Minister for Health, the Hon. Greg Hunt MP, invited Cancer Australia to conduct an enquiry into the prospects, process and delivery of a national lung cancer screening program for people at high risk of lung cancer in Australia. Cancer Australia is seeking input and submissions from all Australians with an interest in lung cancer to help inform the enquiry. Consultation paper This consultation paper is for stakeholders who wish to provide input to the Lung Cancer Screening enquiry (the enquiry) through the Lung Cancer Screening enquiry Consultation Hub. It includes information about why the enquiry is being held, describes the policy context and provides an overview of the proposed approach to the enquiry and the issues under consideration in design of a possible national lung cancer screening program for Australia. Why is the enquiry being held? The enquiry is being held to investigate the feasibility of a national lung cancer screening program for people at high risk of lung cancer in Australia. Cancer Australia will submit a report to the Minister for Health on the prospects, process and delivery of such a program. The enquiry recognises the need for continuing effort to reduce deaths from lung cancer in Australia. Lung Lung cancer in Australia cancer is a common cancer in Australian men and • In 2019, 12,817 people are women and the leading cause of cancer-related estimated to be diagnosed with deaths in Australia. lung cancer in Australia (8.9% of all new cancer cases) More than half of all cases of lung cancer are • In 2019, 9,034 people are diagnosed at an advanced stage, when the likelihood estimated to die from lung of effective treatment is lower.

    Cancer in Australia 2000 The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare is Australia’s national health and welfare statistics and information agency. The Institute’s mission is Better health and wellbeing for Australians through better health and welfare statistics and information. The Australasian Association of Cancer Registries (AACR) is a collaborative body representing state and territory cancer registries in Australia and New Zealand. Most are members of the International Association of Cancer Registries. The AACR was formed in November 1982 to provide a formal mechanism for promoting uniformity of collection, classification and collation of cancer data. The purposes of the AACR are: S to provide a continuing framework for the development of population-based cancer registration in Australia and New Zealand; S to facilitate the exchange of scientific and technical information between cancer registries and to promote standardisation in the collection and classification of cancer data; S to facilitate cancer research both nationally and internationally; and S to facilitate the dissemination of cancer information. The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare has joined with the AACR to produce national cancer statistics from the National Cancer Statistics Clearing House.
