What to Know About Rising Rates of 'Early-Onset' Cancer > News > Yale Medicine

While some cancers have been declining in older people, various reports and studies have shown that cancer is on the rise in younger adults. One of the most recent is Cancer Statistics, 2024, an American Cancer Society (ACS) annual report on cancer facts and trends. Published in January, the report revealed that while cancer deaths are falling, new cases are ticking upwards—from 1.9 million in 2022 to over 2 million in 2023.

More of those new cases involve younger people. The ACS report showed younger adults to be the only age group with an increase in overall cancer incidence between 1995 and 2020—the rate has risen by 1% to 2% each year during that time period.

The study defined early-onset cancer as a diagnosis that occurs between the ages of 14 and 49.
