ABSTRACT
We characterized trends in early onset (aged 20-49) cancer incidence by race/ethnicity and sex using the 2011-2020 Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program dataset. We estimated age-standardized cancer incidence rates, incidence rate ratios (IRR), and annual percentage changes (APC) with 95â¯% confidence intervals (CI). During the time period examined, cancer incidence increased for female breast (APC 0.64; 95â¯% CI 0.10, 1.20), female colorectal (APC 2.16; 95â¯% CI 1.22, 3.10), and male colorectal (APC 2.49; 95â¯% CI 1.81, 3.19) cancer. Among racial/ethnic groups examined, Hispanic individuals had the largest increases in female all sites (APC 1.31; 95â¯% CI 0.38, 2.25), female breast (APC 1.04; 95â¯% CI 0.29, 1.81), and female (APC 4.67; 95â¯% Cl 3.07, 6.30) and male (APC 3.53; 95â¯% CI 2.58, 4.49) colorectal cancer incidence. Further research is needed to clarify the causal mechanisms driving these patterns.
