Overview
In the United States, the age-adjusted prevalence of invasive pancreatic cancer is 11.7 per 100,000 in 2011.[1]. Pancreatic cancer is more prevalent in males than females.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Prevalence
- In the United States, the age-adjusted prevalence of invasive pancreatic cancer is 11.7 per 100,000 in 2011.[1]
Incidence
- The delay-adjusted incidence of invasive pancreatic cancer in 2011 was estimated to be 12.63 per 100,000 persons in the United States.[1]
- In 2011, the age-adjusted incidence of invasive pancreatic cancer was 12.30 per 100,000 persons in the United States.[1]
Age
- While the overall age-adjusted incidence of invasive pancreatic cancer in the United States between 2007 and 2011 is 12.3 per 100,000, the age-adjusted incidence of invasive pancreatic cancer by age category is:[1]
- Under 65 years: 4 per 100,000
- 65 and over: 69.4 per 100,000
Gender
- In the United States, the age-adjusted prevalence of invasive pancreatic cancer by gender in 2011 is:[1]
- In males: 12.3 per 100,000
- In females: 11.2 per 100,000
- In the United States, the delay-adjusted incidence of invasive pancreatic cancer by gender in 2011 is:[1]
- In males: 14.75 per 100,000 persons
- In females: 10.93 per 100,000 persons
- In the United States, the age-adjusted incidence of invasive pancreatic cancer by gender on 2011 is:[1]
- In males: 14.38 per 100,000 persons
- In females: 10.62 per 100,000 persons
Shown below is an image depicting the delay-adjusted incidence and observed incidence of invasive pancreatic cancer by gender and race in the United States between 1975 and 2011. These graphs are adapted from SEER: The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program of the National Cancer Institute.[1]
Race
- Shown below is a table depicting the age-adjusted prevalence of invasive pancreatic cancer by race in 2011 in the United States.[1]
| All Races | White | Black | Asian/Pacific Islander | Hispanic | |
| Age-adjusted prevalence | 11.7 per 100,000 | 11.7 per 100,000 | 13 per 100,000 | 10.4 per 100,000 | 9.6 per 100,000 |
Shown below is an image depicting the incidence of invasive pancreatic cancer by race in the United States between 1975 and 2011.[1]
