Unprecedented progress in medical research is increasing our understanding of the collection of diseases we call cancer and is driving improvements in cancer prevention, early detection, diagnosis, and treatment. These advances are made possible by investments in NIH, NCI, FDA, and CDC by the U.S. federal government. As the first and largest professional organization in the world dedicated to preventing and curing all cancers, AACR continues to be a catalyst for scientific breakthroughs that save the lives of patients with cancer. AACR is committed to increasing public understanding of cancer and advocating for increased funding for medical research.The annual AACR Cancer Progress Report to Congress and the American public is a cornerstone of AACR's educational efforts. This thirteenth edition of the report highlights how research continues to extend and improve the lives of Americans, including the lives of the eight courageous individuals featured in the report and their family members who have shared their experiences with cancer. It also underscores how unwavering, bipartisan support from Congress, in the form of robust and sustained annual increases in funding for NIH, NCI, FDA, and CDC, is urgently needed.The remarkable progress being made against cancer is resulting in a steady reduction in cancer death rates, and a consistent rise in the number of people who live longer and fuller lives after a cancer diagnosis. In fact, the overall U.S. cancer death rate has fallen by 33 percent between 1991 and 2020, a reduction that translates into averting an estimated 3.8 million deaths from cancer. The reduction in overall cancer mortality is driven largely by the decline in the U.S. lung cancer death rate, the pace of which has accelerated in recent years because of reduction in smoking and advances in early detection and treatment. Additionally, the reduction in death rates for melanoma, colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, and female breast cancer has contributed to the progress against overall U.S. cancer mortality. Notably, among U.S. children and adolescents, overall cancer death rates have declined by 70 percent and 64 percent, respectively, over the past five decades.

Transformative research and technological innovations are driving unprecedented progress against the collection of diseases we call cancer. As the first and largest professional organization in the world dedicated to advancing all areas of cancer research and patient care, AACR has been and continues to be a catalyst for scientific breakthroughs that save and enhance the lives of cancer patients. It is also committed to increasing public understanding of cancer and advocating for increased federal funding for cancer research and related sciences. The annual AACR Cancer Progress Report to Congress and the American public is a cornerstone of AACR's educational efforts. This twelfth edition of the report highlights how research continues to extend and improve lives, including the lives of the five courageous individuals featured in the report and their family members who have shared their experiences with cancer. It also underscores how unwavering, bipartisan support from Congress, in the form of robust and sustained annual increases in funding for NIH, NCI, CDC, and FDA, is urgently needed if we are to realize our vision of eradicating cancer for all populations. The remarkable progress being made against cancer-in particular, improvements in reducing smoking rates and developments in early detection and treatment-is resulting in a steady fall in cancer death rates, and a consistent rise in the number of people who live longer after a cancer diagnosis. In fact, in the United States, the age-adjusted overall cancer death rate has been declining since the 1990s, with the reductions between 1991 and 2019 translating into nearly 3.5 million cancer deaths avoided. Additionally, the number of cancer survivors living in the United States has exceeded 18 million as of January 1, 2022. Unfortunately, certain U.S. populations, including racial and ethnic minorities and several other medically underserved groups, have not benefited equally from the advances against cancer. Complex factors referred to as social determinants of health have contributed to cancer health disparities in the United States. It is imperative that all stakeholders work together to eradicate the systemic and structural injustices that are current barriers.

Cancer health disparities are one of the most pressing public health challenges we face today in the United States, and the AACR Cancer Disparities Progress Report 2020 highlights areas of progress in addressing this challenge. It also emphasizes the need for continued research and for increased collaboration among stakeholders if we are to achieve the bold vision of health equity. Racial and ethnic minorities are among the populations groups that have long experienced significant cancer health disparities, although progress in the form of narrowing of the disparities in the overall cancer death rate among racial and ethnic groups in the United States is evident in recent years. We have also made progress in deepening our understanding of the many complex factors that contribute to cancer health disparities. Most important among these are social, clinical, behavioral, cultural, psychological, environmental, and genetic and biological factors. Unfortunately, as pointed out in the report, most data on cancer biology comes from white individuals and there is an urgent need for much more research to increase our understanding of the genes and mutations associated with cancer in racial and ethnic minorities.Despite recent advances in cancer treatment, racial and ethnic minorities are often less likely to receive the standard of care recommended for the type and stage of cancer with which they have been diagnosed. To achieve health equity for everyone, stakeholders must work together to remove the barriers that prevent all segments of the population benefiting equally from lifesaving progress in cancer treatment, including a serious lack of racial and ethnic diversity among those who pariticipate in cancer clinical trials. Over the past decade, the field of cancer health disparities research has evolved from simply describing different outcomes among populations into an established multidisciplinary field of research. To further accelerate the pace of progress against cancer health disparities concerted efforts by all stakeholders is absolutely critical. Thus, the report concludes with a call to action to Congress. Through robust and sustained funding, Congress help us achieve the bold vision of health equity.

Advances in cancer research have led to an improved understanding of the molecular mechanisms underpinning the development of cancer and how the immune system responds to cancer. This influx of research has led to an increasing number and variety of therapies in the drug development pipeline, including targeted therapies and associated biomarker tests that can select which patients are most likely to respond, and immunotherapies that harness the body's immune system to destroy cancer cells. Compared with standard chemotherapies, these new cancer therapies may demonstrate evidence of benefit and clearer distinctions between efficacy and toxicity at an earlier stage of development. However, there is a concern that the traditional processes for cancer drug development, evaluation, and regulatory approval could impede or delay the use of these promising cancer treatments in clinical practice. This has led to a number of effortsâ€"by patient advocates, the pharmaceutical industry, and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)â€"to accelerate the review of promising new cancer therapies, especially for cancers that currently lack effective treatments. However, generating the necessary data to confirm safety and efficacy during expedited drug development programs can present a unique set of challenges and opportunities. To explore this new landscape in cancer drug development, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine developed a workshop held in December 2016. This workshop convened cancer researchers, patient advocates, and representatives from industry, academia, and government to discuss challenges with traditional approaches to drug development, opportunities to improve the efficiency of drug development, and strategies to enhance the information available about a cancer therapy throughout its life cycle in order to improve its use in clinical practice. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.
