A new study led by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), in collaboration with the European Network of Cancer Registries (ENCR) and the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC), estimates 3.9 million new cases of cancer (excluding non-melanoma skin cancer) and 1.9 million deaths from cancer in Europe in 2018. The report, published in the European Journal of Cancer, describes the estimated incidence and mortality burden from 25 common cancers in 40 European countries, in the European Union’s 28 Member States, and in Europe, for 2018.
