 Cancer Control PLANET
This new Web portal resource is designed to help health educators,
program staff, researchers and cancer control planners bridge the research
discovery-program delivery gap and increase the adoption of evidence-based
approaches across the cancer control continuum. In addition to the
currently available resources on tobacco control and physical activity, in
the near future PLANET will include resources on sun safety; breast,
cervical and colorectal cancer screening; informed decision-making
interventions for screening where benefits are uncertain (e.g., prostate
cancer); and '5 to 9 A Day' fruit and vegetable dietary interventions.
PLANET is a collaborative effort of the National Cancer Institute (NCI),
CDC, the Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration, and the American Cancer Society.

Updated State Cancer Profiles Web Site
The State Cancer Profiles Web site was developed by CDC and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) to provide cancer control planners
and policy makers with a system to characterize the cancer burden in a standardized manner.
The State Cancer Profiles Web site includes data collected from Public health surveillance
systems such as
- NCI's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results program
- CDC's National Program of Cancer Registries, National Vital Statistics System,
and the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System
- 2001 Mortality Data from CDC's National Center for Health Statistics
- Note: The cancer incidence data provided in State Cancer Profiles are
identical to those published in the U.S. Cancer Statistics: 2000 Incidence report,
plus additional data calculations recently authorized by selected states.
