This study used SEER (Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results) data to update colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence and mortality trends from 1992 to 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The well-known trends of increased CRC incidence and mortality among younger persons mean that Americans aged 50 to 54 are now experiencing increased morbidity and mortality. Rapid declines in incidence in older persons, documented between 2000 and 2010, began to slow around 2010. For example, in 60- to 64-year-olds, CRC incidence decreased by 3% per year from 1998 to 2011 but decreased by <1% per year after 2011. For 70- to 74-year-olds, incidence rates decreased by 6% from 2008 to 2013 but 3.5% per year from 2013 to 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mortality trends typically follow the incidence trends. Overall 5-year survival improved by 0.55% per year until 2005, but no further improvement occurred after 2005.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
