Seniors older than 74 make up almost 28% of all new cancer cases. Researchers aren’t sure why this is so. It could be that the passing decades give your cells more time to turn faulty, or mutate, and grow into cancer. Or older age simply means you’ve been exposed to sunlight, cigarette smoke, chemicals, and other cancer-causing agents for longer. Cancer Incidence This is another way of saying the number of new cancer cases in a certain group of people. In the U.S., the number of new cancer cases per year has been falling slowly for more than a decade. Incidence rates give an important but incomplete picture of cancer. For example, cancer incidence can go up if more people are getting screened. Such was the case during the early 1990s, when incidences of prostate cancer in men surged after widespread testing. An estimated 1.81 million people in the U.S. are expected to be diagnosed with cancer in 2020. About 606,000 people are expected to die from any type of cancer. Cancer death rates have improved steadily since the early 1990s. About four out of 10 Americans will have cancer at some point in their lifetime. Cancer Cases by Age Groups You can get cancer at any age, including as infants and toddlers. But cancer is mostly a disease of middle age and beyond. The median age at diagnosis is 66, meaning that half of all new cases are found before then and half are diagnosed later. The following is the share of diagnoses for all types of cancer in the U.S. by age groups: Under 20: 1%

Radiosurgery, brachytherapy, chemoradiation therapy, etc. are also possible. Most often, the use of chemo does not work if the cancer cells mutate or if the tumour is resistant to the drug.
Chemotherapy is the use of medications to fight cancer, infectious and parasitic diseases. In 90% of cases, it is an effective treatment. The drugs can be delivered in different ways. Most often, patients are given chemo intravenously or orally. The pills can be taken at home. Chemo drugs are grouped based on their effect on cancer cells: cytostatic drugs – drugs that prevent the division of cancer cells, and cytotoxic drugs – the ones that destroy the tumour. Intravenous injection of chemotherapy takes approximately 2-3 hours. The chemotherapy course is calculated for each patient individually. This is influenced by the age, weight and condition of the patient, as well as the characteristics of the neoplasm. The total duration of treatment can vary from one month to a year.
