United States

Cancer incidence and mortality for United States as published by the source registry: per site group, per year and sex, with age-standardized rates where the source provides them. Population statistics describe groups, never individuals.

Summary

2003 · Female · all ages

Totals across all cancer sites are shown only when the source publishes an all-sites row. Otherwise the per-site figures below stand on their own; CancerIndex never sums site groups (definitions overlap between sources).

Clinical research

Clinical trial activity in United States

Registrant-entered study locations on ClinicalTrials.gov mapped to this country (any study type, any phase). A site is one location; a multi-site study weighs by its number of sites. Recruiting = location status RECRUITING, or the study status when the site has none.

Age-standardized rates use the 2000 U.S. standard population (19 age groups); they are not comparable with rates standardized to the World (Segi) population used by IARC. Global comparisons are not available: the IARC Global Cancer Observatory remains under license review and the SEER API awaits credentials (CLAUDE.md §10.3-10.4). Only geographies with licensed observations get a page; see /countries.
