EpiCast Report: Head and Neck Cancers – Epidemiology Forecast to 2024
Powered by
All the vital news, analysis, and commentary curated by our industry experts.
Head and neck cancers (HNCs) are a heterogeneous group, consisting of cancers of the mouth, including the lip, tongue, gum, floor of mouth, palate, and other parts of mouth; the salivary glands; the pharynx, including the tonsil, oropharynx, nasopharynx, pyriform fossa, hypopharynx, other mouth/pharynx; the nose, sinuses, and related structures; the larynx; and the thyroid. HNCs usually begin in the squamous cells that line the moist mucosal surfaces of the tissues and organs of the head and neck — more than 80% of all HNCs are squamous cell carcinomas. HNCs are common in several regions across the globe and account for 600,000 new cases annually worldwide.GlobalData epidemiologists forecast an increase in diagnosed incident cases of HNCs in the 7MM from 151,393 diagnosed incident cases in 2014 to 174,056 diagnosed incident cases in 2024, with an Annual Growth Rate (AGR) of 1.50% during the forecast period. In 2024, the US will have the highest number of diagnosed incident cases of HNCs in the 7MM, with 65,663 diagnosed incident cases, whereas the UK will have the lowest number of diagnosed incident cases of HNCs, with 12,702 diagnosed incident cases in 2024. The diagnosed incident cases of thyroid cancer in the 7MM are expected to increase from 93,225 diagnosed incident cases in 2014 to 123,504 diagnosed incident cases in 2024, with an AGR of 3.25% during the forecast period. In 2024, the US will have the highest number of diagnosed incident cases of thyroid cancer in the 7MM with 81,286 diagnosed incident cases, whereas Spain will have the lowest number of diagnosed incident cases of thyroid cancer with 3,233 diagnosed incident cases in 2024.
Scope
The Head and neck cancers (HNCs) EpiCast Report and EpiCast Model provide an overview of the risk factors, comorbidities, and the global and historical trends for HNCs in the seven major markets (7MM) (US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK, and Japan). It includes a 10-year epidemiological forecast of the diagnosed incident cases of HNCs segmented into three sub-groups: cancers of the lip, oral cavity, and pharynx; cancers of the nose, sinuses, and related structures; and cancers of the larynx, in these markets. It also includes a 10-year epidemiological forecast for the five-year diagnosed prevalent cases of HNCs (excluding nose, sinuses, and related cancers). Additionally, it includes a 10-year epidemiological forecast for the diagnosed incident cases and the five-year diagnosed prevalent cases of thyroid cancer in the 7MM. The diagnosed incident cases of HNCs (excluding nose, sinuses, and related cancers) and thyroid cancer are segmented by age, sex, clinical stage at diagnosis, and histology.
The HNCs epidemiology report and model were written and developed by Masters- and PhD-level epidemiologists.
The EpiCast Report is in-depth, high quality, transparent and market-driven, providing expert analysis of disease trends in the 7MM.
The EpiCast Model is easy to navigate, interactive with dashboards, and epidemiology-based with transparent and consistent methodologies. Moreover, the model supports data presented in the report and showcases disease trends over a 10-year forecast period using reputable sources.
