154 Increasing incidence of cutaneous t-cell lymphoma in the United States: A SEER population data analysis

Abstract

Recent incidence patterns of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) in the United States are not well described. Our goal was to evaluate incidence trends of CTCL by subtype and examine associations to sex, age, race/ethnicity, and socioeconomic status (SES). Using data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Registry, we calculated age-adjusted incidence rates and annual percentage change (APC) in incidence of CTCL. We identified 14,942 patients with a new diagnosis of CTCL between 2000 and 2018.
