CONCORD: After describing world-wide surveillance of trends in cancer survival for the first time in 2015, the third cycle of the CONCORD programme (CONCORD-3) was updated to include patients diagnosed between 2000 and 2014, with follow-up to 31 December 2014. It included data for 18 cancers or haematological malignancies that collectively represented 75% of the global cancer burden in 2014. Individual patient records for over 37.5 million patients were included in the analyses. These data were provided by 322 population-based cancer registries in 71 countries and territories, of which 47 provided data with 100% national population coverage. Cancer registries in nine Canadian provinces and 42 US states contributed data for a total of 14,320,034 patients. Since 2017, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development has included survival estimates from the CONCORD programme among the indicators of the effectiveness of health systems in managing cancer in all its Health at a Glance reports. VENUSCANCER: Embedded in the CONCORD programme, this is a world-wide project designed to explain the global inequalities in patterns of care, short-term survival and trends in avoidable premature deaths from breast, cervical and ovarian cancers, the three most common cancers in women. The goal of this project, funded by the European Research Council, is to provide levers for health policy to reduce or eliminate avoidable differences in survival from these cancers. During the webinar we will discuss the ongoing data submission to the VENUSCANCER project, and the recent call for data for CONCORD-4. Presentations: VENUSCANCER: Project Overview and Extend Call for Data Claudia Allemani, MSc, PhD, FHEA, MFPH London Scholl of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine SAS-Code to map NAACCR Data Structure to VENUSCANCER data specification Bozena Morawski, BA, MPH, PhD Cancer Data Registry of Idaho CONCORD-4: Scope and Ambition, and Call for Data Michel Coleman, BA, BM BCh, MSc, FFPH London School of hygiene and Tropical Medicine SAS-code to Map NAACCR Data Structure to CONCORD-4 Data Specification Christopher Johnson, MPH Cancer Data Registry of Idaho

This webinar will focus on using Match*Pro to deduplicate registry data at the tumor-level. Using Match*Pro will be an integral part of meeting the duplicate threshold for NAACCR Certification. This webinar will provide an overview of the duplicate protocol and step-by-step instructions for running the updated, tumor-level Match*Pro protocol. How to save a results archive to apply to subsequent years will also be covered. This training will also be recorded and available, along with associated resources, on the NAACCR Call for Data Tools Tab.

This webinar will be focused on NCI’s interactive geospatial tools that are useful for characterizing areas of the country in terms of cancer incidence, mortality, screening frequency, risk factors, socio-demographic and environmental variables relevant to cancer. This presentation will introduce two resources of geospatial tools for visualization of population-based cancer statistics at NCI: 1) State Cancer Profiles, an interactive mapping engine designed to provide a geographic profile of cancer with a combination of maps, charts, tables, and graphs presenting the latest available cancer statistics and other relevant data; and 2) GIS Portal for Cancer Research, a more comprehensive resource of geographically referenced cancer statistics, social and environmental data, several interactive tools, and knowledge related to geographic disparities in cancer burden.

This "How To" webinar is the NAACCR Version 22 update for creating census tract-Level SEER*Stat databases 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 use 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 NAACCR Version 22 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.

This webinar will feature three presentations on Canadian Cancer Surveillance

Speaker: Dr. Loraine Escobedo Presentation: Geographic targeting of breast cancer screening services to high-need neighborhoods in Los Angeles County Dr. Escobedo will discuss geospatial methods to use cancer registry data to identify high-need neighborhoods where early breast cancer screening programs may be targeted to be most cost-effective. Speaker: Dr. Laticia Varella Presentation: Recent developments in breast cancer treatment Dr. Varella will discuss the main developments in breast cancer treatment in the past 2 years, with a focus on practice-changing clinical trials.

Participant enrollment for the National Firefighter Registry (NFR) begins in 2022. The NFR is an exposure registry of U.S. firefighters for tracking and analyzing cancer trends and risk factors among the U.S. Fire Service. It is designed to be linked with population-based cancer registries periodically over time for prospective follow-up of participants' cancer status. Presenters from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) will discuss the design and status of the NFR, progress of participant enrollment, plans for cancer registry linkages, and opportunities for collaboration.
