TAILIEUCHUNG - Cancer Research in ICMR Achievements in Nineties

Population-based cancer registries are important resources for cancer epi- demiologists since they hold information on the distribution of cancer in well defined populations. This information may be analysed without the need for any additional data collection. Cancer site-specific incidence rates can be cal- culated and compared according to many different variables such as age, sex, country of birth, place of residence at the time of diagnosis, etc. | Cancer Research in ICMR Achievements in Nineties The process of carcinogenicity presents a major challenge to scientists and provides limited tools for its control. Indian health services are also not adequately equipped with facilities and expertise for management of cancers. Mortality and morbidity due to tobacco use is very high. In view of the national priorities the focus of research in the field of cancer has been on the aetiology with identification of preventable risk factors understand the mechanism of carcinogenesis and on operational research for control of tobacco use and common cancers through existing infrastructures. The multidisciplinary research involved clinical epidemiological as well as basic sciences including modern molecular techniques. The cancer registries helped in understanding the magnitude trends in cancer occurrence and plan control activities. The above mentioned task force projects helped in addressing national priorities. However high importance was also accorded to supporting projects submitted by individual scientists which spanned practically all specialties concerned with cancer and different sites in the body. National Cancer Registry Programme The National Cancer Regsitry Programme NCRP was initiated in 1982 with three population based existing Mumbai registry and new registries at Bangalore and Chennai and three hospital based registries at Chandigarh Dibrugarh Thiruvananthapuram . Further expansion saw the initiation of urban population based cancer registries at Bhopal Delhi rural population based cancer registry at Barshi Maharashtra hospital cancer registries at Mumbai Bangalore Chennai. Chandigarh registry functioned till 1992. At present the network has 6 population based and 5 hospital based cancer registries. Coordinating unit at Bangalore Delhi with the help of a steering commitee carries out the monitoring and coordination of activities. The data from cancer registries helped in highlighting the magnitude and common
