Abstract
Poverty has been an important social determinant of health, including cancer. The poverty trap of cancer diagnosis and treatment owing to catastrophic expenditure and subsequent poor outcomes is well documented in the literature. This article aims to explore the role of poverty, leading to biological changes responsible for an increased risk of carcinogenesis. The role of poverty-causing cancers could open the avenues for more comprehensive prevention and control strategies, and subsequent policy implications, in high-burden and poverty-stricken regions in the country.
