  2. Lung cancer incidence and mortality Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers, with 1.6 million new cases per year worldwide1 Lung cancer is the most common cause of death from cancer, responsible for 18.2% of all cancer deaths1 • Ferlay J, Shin HR, Bray F, Forman D, Mathers C and Parkin DM.

Rates of lung cancer incidence and mortality differ worldwide1 Northern America Central and Eastern Europe More developed regions Eastern Asia Micronesia Western Europe Polynesia Northern Europe Southern Europe Australia/New Zealand World South-Eastern Asia Less developed regions Caribbean Southern Africa Western Asia South America Central America Melanesia Northern Africa South-Central Asia Eastern Africa Western Africa Middle Africa 55% of new lung cancer cases occur in developing countries Highest lung cancer rates are found in Northern AmericaLung cancer is the most common cancer in men and the second most common in women Lowest lung cancer rates are found in Middle AfricaLung cancer is the 15th most common cancer Incidence Mortality Male Female 80 60 40 20 0 20 40 60 80 Estimated age-standardized rates (World) per 100,000 • Ferlay J, Shin HR, Bray F, Forman D, Mathers C and Parkin DM.

  6. NSCLC makes up approximately 85% of lung cancer1 Large cell carcinoma (2.6% of lung cancer) Lung Cancer (100%) Other NSCLC (20.2% of lung cancer) Squamous cell carcinoma (21.4% of lung cancer) Adenocarcinoma (40.1% of lung cancer) NSCLC (85.3% of lung cancer) • Howlader N, Noone AM, Krapcho M, et al. (eds). SEER Cancer Statistics Review, 1975-2010, National Cancer Institute. Bethesda, MD, http://seer.cancer.gov/csr/1975_2010/, based on November 2012 SEER data submission, posted to the SEER web site, April 2013, accessed on 15/09/2013.

  7. The distribution of NSCLC subtypes is changing1 Since the 1980’s, squamous cell carcinomas have become relatively less common Meanwhile, adenocarcinomas have become relatively more common The reasons for these changes are unclear, but may be due to changes in the composition and filtering of cigarettes 1.
