* In the United Kingdom it is also the second most common cause of cancer death after [[lung cancer]], where around 35,000 cases are diagnosed every year and of which around 10,000 die of it. However, many men who develop prostate cancer never have symptoms, undergo no therapy, and eventually die of other causes. That is because malignant [[neoplasm]]s of the prostate are, in most cases, slow-growing, and because most of those affected are over 60. Hence they often die of causes unrelated to the prostate cancer, such as heart/circulatory disease, [[pneumonia]], other unconnected cancers or old age.

* Prostate cancer develops most frequently in men over fifty. This cancer can occur only in men, as the prostate is exclusively of the male reproductive tract. It is the most common type of cancer in men in the United States, where it is responsible for more male deaths than any other cancer, except [[lung cancer]].

Overview

Epidemiology and Demographics

Prevalence

  • Rates of prostate cancer vary widely across the world. Although the rates vary widely between countries, it is least common in South and East Asia, more common in Europe, and most common in the United States.[1]
  • In the United Kingdom it is also the second most common cause of cancer death after lung cancer, where around 35,000 cases are diagnosed every year and of which around 10,000 die of it. However, many men who develop prostate cancer never have symptoms, undergo no therapy, and eventually die of other causes. That is because malignant neoplasms of the prostate are, in most cases, slow-growing, and because most of those affected are over 60. Hence they often die of causes unrelated to the prostate cancer, such as heart/circulatory disease, pneumonia, other unconnected cancers or old age.
  • In the United States, the age-adjusted prevalence of prostate cancer is 1.48% in 2011.[2]

Incidence

  • The delay-adjusted incidence of prostate cancer in 2011 was estimated to be 145.2 per 100,000 persons in the United States.[2]
  • In 2011, the age-adjusted incidence of prostate cancer was 139.89 per 100,000 persons in the United States.[2]

Age

  • Prostate cancer develops most frequently in men over fifty.
  • While the overall age-adjusted incidence of prostate cancer in the United States between 2007 and 2011 is 147.6 per 100,000, the age-adjusted incidence of prostate cancer by age category is:[2]
    • Under 65 years: 57.8 per 100,000
    • 65 and over: 768.2 per 100,000

Race

  • According to the American Cancer Society, prostate cancer is least common among Asian men and most common among black men, with figures for white men in-between.[3][4] However, these high rates may be affected by increasing rates of detection.[5]
  • Shown below is a table depicting the age-adjusted prevalence of prostate cancer by race in 2011 in the United States.[2]
All Races White Black Asian/Pacific Islander Hispanic
Age-adjusted prevalence 1.48% 1.56% 1.64% 0.7% 0.53%

Shown below is an image depicting the incidence of prostate cancer by race in the United States between YEAR and YEAR.[2]
