The ASR-Is of cancers related to opportunity screening activities (prostate and breast) increased until the early 21st century and then decreased. The ASR-I of cancers related to infectious agents continues to decrease (cervix, vulva, and stomach). There is evidence of control of cancer-related to tobacco consumption (lung, oral cavity, bladder). In both sexes, the ASR-I of thyroid, colorectal and lymphoma cancers increased and those of ovarian cancer decreased. Between 1984-2020 the ASR-M for all locations decreased annually 0.7% (95% CI: -0.9, -0.5) in men and 1.1% (95% CI: -1.3, -0.9) in women. For both sexes, ASR-M decreased for cancers of the esophagus, stomach, lung, bladder, lymphomas, and leukemias; and increased in colorectal cancer. The ASR-M for cervical and prostate cancer decreased annually by 3.5% (95% CI: -3.9, -3.2) and 0.1% (95% CI: -0.5, -0.3), respectively.</div><div class="focus-handle">&nbsp;</div></div></div></div><div class="content-node heading level-2" data-id="heading_6"><div class="content"><strong><span class="text title">Comment:</span></strong></div></div><div class="content-node paragraph" data-id="paragraph_5"><div class="content"><div class="content-node text" data-id="text_5"><div class="content">This information allows the construction of some indicators to monitor the City Cancer Challenge initiative and the current 10-year plan for cancer control in Colombia, 2011-2021.</div></div></div></div> ER -
