Correct and consistent cancer counts and quality data are critical to the mission of the cancer registry. To achieve these goals registrars must apply the solid tumor rules uniformly. During this webinar we will review the structure and format of the Solid Tumor Manual

Identifying geospatial cancer survival disparities is critical to focus interventions and prioritize efforts with limited resources. Incorporating residential mobility into spatial models may result in different geographic patterns of survival compared with the standard approach using a single location based on the patient's residence at the time of diagnosis. In the presentation, we describe the process of linking residential histories from LexisNexis to New Jersey colon cancer cases and describe results from our geospatial analysis of colon cancer survival that included residential histories.

This “How To” webinar will introduce participants to newly developed resources to support spatial analysis and health equity research. These resources, which include census tract-level population estimates for the United States, are freely available and developed specifically for using in cancer surveillance. This webinar addresses how to calculate cancer rates in SEER*Stat by tract-level based social measure, such as NAACCR Poverty Code. How to handle the incidence data, census tract-level population estimates, and the area-based social measures data will be covered step by step. This webinar is appropriate for registry analysts, academic researchers, and anyone interested in the use of cancer registry data.

How to handle the incidence data, census tract-level population estimates, and the area-based social measures data will be covered step by step.
In the "and then some!" portion of this talk we will demonstrate how to calculate rates by census tract, Cancer Reporting Zones, CDC Sub-County Geographic Area, and multiple area-based social measures with your registry data in SEER*Stat. We encourage staff who work on cancer cluster concerns and other small area rate calculations attend. We particularly encourage staff who run SEER*Prep to attend, as we will detail how to include the census tract population estimates along with your registry data in SEER*Prep.
This webinar is appropriate for registry analysts, academic researchers, and anyone interested in the use of cancer registry data.

This NAACCR Talk will present 3 of the Phase II Pilot cohort studies that are linking with registry data via the VPR-CLS. Study updates as well as researchers’ perspective on using the VPR-CLS will be presented. The three studies include the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study, the Transplant Cancer Match Study, and the Cohort Cancer Follow-up Study.

Greg Armstrong, MD MSCE
Member, Department of Epidemiology and Cancer Control
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
Greg Armstrong MD, MSCE, joined the Department of Epidemiology and Cancer Control at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in 2006. Dr. Armstrong is the Principal Investigator of the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study (CCCS). The CCSS is a multi-institutional, collaborative cohort study initiated in 1994, which has successfully established and followed a cohort of five-year survivors of childhood cancer diagnosed between 1970-1999 and a sibling comparison group. The cohort, derived through 31 original participating clinical centers, has collected detailed information on cancer diagnosis and therapy received along with health-related long-term outcomes. His research has provided novel identification of a reduction in late mortality among survivors of childhood cancer from more recent eras attributable to reduced treatment exposure, extending the lifespan of these survivors (NEJM 2016). He has been continuously funded by NCI since 2010.
