Cancer – is the major cause of death globally, with incidence and mortality rates on the rise over the last few decades. The disease is responsible for ~100L deaths globally (WHO Cancer Report 2020), of which ~9L (9%) recorded deaths occurred in India. The incidence is growing at an alarming rate of 9% y-o-y, as per National Cancer Registry Program 2012-16. India is a lower-middle-income country, and findings from the World Cancer Report 2020 suggest that socioeconomic background has an impact on whether an individual/population is at risk of exposure to cancer. In India, the incidence of cervical and oral cancer is higher among those from lower socioeconomic status, while breast and colorectal cancer is more prevalent among those from a higher socioeconomic status. Oral cancer is linked to tobacco use, while breast and colorectal cancers are attributed to a sedentary lifestyle and obesity. In 2016, it was also found that approximately 70% of deaths from cancer occurred in low and middle-income countries, highlighting a visible inequality in cancer awareness, prevention, diagnosis, and care.
