Change in the age structure of newly diagnosed cancer patients between 2010 and 2022 in private practices
The aim of the present study was to determine the age of new cancer patients in 2010 and 2022 and to evaluate the changes in the proportion of early-onset cancers in the total number of cancer cases in private practices. This retrospective cross-sectional study included adult patients (≥18 years) with an initial cancer diagnosis in 557 private practices in Germany in 2010 or 2022 from the Disease Analyzer database (IQVIA).
