About The Study: In this cross-sectional temporal analysis, the marked reductions in excess mortality indicate meaningful progress achieved for several major cancer types through population-wide cancer control efforts. Persistent or worsening disparities in breast cancer and uterine corpus cancer and substantial residual disparities in prostate cancer highlight priorities for equitable interventions. These findings may guide more targeted and efficient cancer prevention and control strategies to further accelerate progress.
