Introduction
• Systemic collection of data on the occurrence and characteristic of neoplasm (Mclennan et al 1978)
• Cancer registration is central to national cancer control programme (Muir, C.S. 1985)

Introduction
• Worldwide-14.1 million new cases and 8.2 million cancer-related deaths in 20121
• By 2030 new cancer cases will increase to 21.7 million, and the cancer-related deaths to 13 million globally
• 13 million of the new cancer cases and 9 million of the deaths will occur in less developed regions
• 2.5 million cancer cases and 0.7 million new cases/year in India2

Epidemiologic principles lay the foundations for evidence based scientific cancer research, determining risk factors, assessing control measures
Introduction Continued
• Extraordinary resources of information for clinicians, researchers, scientists, policy makers, and the public in our fight against cancer1
• Identifying High-Risk Groups• Increasing Screening in Underserved Areas• Investigating Possible Cancer Causes• Evaluating patterns of clinical care

History of cancer registration in India
• Until 1964- information on cancer occurrence in India was available from surveys
• Initiation of population based cancer registries
Bombay in 1964 Pune in 1973 Aurangabad in 1978 Ahmedabad & Nagpur in 1980

National Cancer Registry Programme
• Commenced by ICMR with a network of cancer registries across the country in December 19812
• Started with three PBCR -Bangalore, Chennai and Mumbai and three HBCR -Chandigarh, Dibrugarh and Thiruvananthapuram
• Now there are 28 PBCR and 7 HBCR sites in India

National Cancer Registry Programme Continued
Objectives of this programme
• To generate reliable data on the magnitude and patterns of cancer
• Undertake epidemiological studies based on results of registry data
• Help in designing, planning, monitoring and evaluation of cancer control activities under the National Cancer Control Programme (NCCP)
• Develop training programmes in cancer registration and epidemiology
11/ 38
12/ 38
National Cancer Registry Programme Continued
• Steering Committee and a Monitoring Committee- meets periodically to oversee and guide –functioning
• A review meeting is held annually -Principal Investigators and staff of the registries present results and participate in the discussions-preceded by a workshop
• Cancer registration in India is active• Death certificates are also scrutinized from the
municipal corporation units
13/ 38
National Cancer Registry Programme Continued
• Information collected on a core form -subsequently entered into a computer
• Use modern advances in electronic information technology (enter the checking of the data, verification of duplicates and matching mortality and incidence records)
• Electronic processing of data -tried out in some registries
14/ 38
Population Based Cancer Registries
• Basic thrust of a PBCR is cancer in community • PBCR provides - data on incidence and mortality (also
variation in incidence and mortality)• Three new centers Patiala, Naharalagun,Pasighat has
started • Good PBCR requires Meticulous planning Cooperation from medical institutes Dedicated personal and adequate funding

Population Based Cancer Registries ContinuedEssential variables1
• Personal identification (names (in full) and/or unique • Sex• Date of birth or age• Address (usual residence)• Ethnic group (when the population consists of two or more
groups)• Most valid basis of diagnosis (enables cases to be registered
with a non-histological diagnosis)• Topography (site) of primary cancer• Tumour morphology (histology)• Tumour behaviour (benign, uncertain, in situ or malignant)• Source of information

Population Based Cancer Registries Continued
Recommended variables1
• Date of last contact• Status at last contact (at least dead or alive)• Stage or extent of disease at diagnosis• Initial treatment

Hospital Based Cancer Registries
• The primary purpose -to contribute to patient care by providing readily accessible information on the patients
• Data - used for clinical research and for epidemiological purposes
• Within the hospital, a registry - integral part of the hospital’s cancer programme or health care delivery system
22/ 38
Hospital Based Cancer Registries Continued
Objectives (Maclennan et al, 1978; Young, J.L. 1991) GENERAL:
-Assess Patient Care
-Participate in Clinical Research to Evaluate Therapy -Provide an idea of the patterns of cancer in the area -Help plan hospital facilities
23/ 38
Hospital Based Cancer RegistriesContinued
• Data collection is done by the individual registries using a standardized common core form
• The information of patient Identifying and demographic information Details of diagnosis the clinical stage of the disease Broad type of treatment instituted
24/ 38
25/ 38
Development of an Atlas of Cancer in India
• A major advance for using Information Technology in Medicine
• Web-based design and approach with on-line transmission
• Unlike the working of PBCRs, no systematic attempt was made to actively visit every diagnostic and treatment centre
26/ 38
Development of an Atlas of Cancer in India
•Strengthening of departments of pathology Providing orientation/ training in cancer registration
• Cost-effective

Critical appraisal-1
• Coverage of population based cancer registry (only 7.5%) in India is low1
• Cancer Registries covering 21% of the world population2
• Less in rural (2 wholly rural) and tribal (0) area

Critical appraisal -2
• Quality check. Few indicators of quality check are still far from good quality data
Age unknownUnknown duration of stayMicroscopic verification Clinical extent of disease before treatmentUnspecified site/subsiteUnspecified histology
30/ 38
Critical appraisal -3
• Linkage of various data (patient level, local level and national level) needs to be improved
e.g English National Cancer Online Registration Environment (EnCORE)
• Real time data entry

Are patients following local treatment guidelines? 33/ 38
Critical appraisal -4
• Shortage of manpower• Interviewing the patient becoming difficult
due to time convience• Lacking of ICD proper coding in many hospitals• Laborious and time-consuming process for
going through all records and death certificate• New Private hospitals providing soft copy but
not hard copy of patient

Reach at primary levelDo we really need a cancer registry to reach
primary level?Histopathology and staging of cancer-tertiary

• Role of ASHA, ANM, information assistant• Data quality, duplication of data, increasing
work burden will be a issue38/ 38

Evolution of NCCP 1975-76 National Cancer Control Programme was launched with priorities given for equipping the premier cancer hospital/institutions. Central assistance at the rate of Rs.2.50 lakhs was given to each institution for purchase of cobalt machines. 1984-85 The strategy was revised and stress was laid on primary prevention and early detection of cancer cases. 1990-91 District Cancer Control Programme was started in selected districts (near the medical college hospitals). 2000-01 Modified District Cancer Control programme initiated. 2004 Evaluation of NCCP was done by National Institute of Health & Family Welfare, New Delhi. 2005 The programme was further revised after evaluation.
