Deaths From Uterine Cancer Projected to Rise Sharply over Next Two Decades

  • In 2024, a study from the American Association for Cancer Research projects uterine cancer cases will rise over 50% by 2050, with Black women three times more likely to die from it.
  • The increase stems from rising obesity, declining hysterectomy rates, and social determinants that worsen racial disparities, amplifying uterine cancer risk among Black women.
  • Epidemiological data show uterine cancer cases rose over 50% from 43,000 to 65,000 , with annual incidence increasing 0.7% and mortality 1.6%.
  • Public health officials are urged to improve screening and develop targeted strategies for high-risk groups, especially Black women, amid rising uterine cancer projections and disparities.
  • Future projections suggest that implementing screening at age 55 could reduce uterine cancer incidence for up to 16 years, while obesity reduction via weight loss medications may significantly lower future cases.
