This statistic shows the amount of registrations of newly diagnosed cases of cancer in England in 2021, by age group and gender. Men aged 75 to 79 years had the highest number of reported cases as 49,340. It should of course be noted that the number of people in England in each age group varies and is therefore not necessarily a reflection of susceptibility to cancer.
