Cancer-causing environmental pollutants can occur naturally (e.g., radon or arsenic) or are man-made (e.g., air pollution from burning fuels), and they can be found in the air, soil, or water. Radon, a radioactive gas that can accumulate in buildings, is the second leading cause of lung cancer in many countries,1

The delivery of high-quality, patient-centered cancer care requires capacity across multiple domains (infrastructure, staffing, resources, research, and data management systems) and multidisciplinary collaboration among health care centers, governments, nongovernmental organizations, and the international community. There remain unmet needs across the main modalities of cancer treatment in many areas of the1

Lung cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer death worldwide, with about 2.5 million new cases and 1.8 million deaths in 2022. Overall rates are twice as high in men than women. The highest incidence and mortality rates in both sexes are found in1

About 30% of individuals facing serious health-related suffering are affected by cancer (Figure 38.1). Cancer pain remains a common and distressing symptom both during treatment and in survivorship, affecting approximately half of all cancer patients and two-thirds of those with advanced disease.

Climate change impacts cancer control in multiple ways (Figure 11.1). First, human activities cause climate change and increase exposures to cancer-causing agents. For example, extraction, processing, and use of fossil fuels not only exacerbates the greenhouse effect but also increases the risk of certain cancers. There is a strong relationship1

Southern, Eastern, and Southeast Asia are some of the most densely populated regions globally, with over 4.3 billion people (55% of the world population). The region contributes 49% of all new cancer cases (9.2 million) and 53% of cancer deaths (5.1 million) worldwide each year. China and India combined account1

Nearly 7 million lives were lost due to COVID-19 during the 2020-2023 pandemic. Patients with cancer were affected both directly and indirectly by the disease (Figure 47.1).

Among the numerous potentially modifiable risk factors for cancer, reductions in tobacco use, infectious agents, excess body fatness, unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, alcohol consumption, excess exposure to ultraviolet radiation, environmental pollutants, and occupational exposures can have an important impact in reducing the morbidity and mortality associated with cancer in every1

Global cancer control requires a coordinated response from national governments, researchers, funders, practitioners, advocates, patients, and international organizations. Multiple high-level resolutions have called for reduced cancer mortality, but work remains to meet targets and understand what approaches work best, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where burden is increasing.1
