Age-standardized incidence rates and recent trends (five years) for the most common cancers by sex. Rates were age-standardized to the 2000 US standard population (19 age groups Census P25–1130) and were delay-adjusted and covered 89% of the US population. Registries included in analyses: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. AAPC is the average annual percent change and is a weighted average of the annual percent change (APC) over the fixed interval (2009–2013) using the underlying joinpoint model for the period of 1999 to 2013. Joinpoint models with up to two joinpoints are based on rates per 100 000 persons that are age-standardized to the 2000 US standard population (19 age groups Census P25–1130). Joinpoint Regression Program, version 4.2.0.2. June 2015, Statistical Research and Applications Branch, National Cancer Institute. *The AAPC is statistically significantly different from 0 (two-sided t test or z test, P < .05). AAPC = average annual percent change.
