IARC estimates 317 new cancer cases and 139 cancer deaths in Samoa in 2024; the commonest new cancers are breast, trachea, bronchus and lung and prostate. This page is assembled automatically from OnCo's data, and says what OnCo does not yet hold.
Built partly from other countries' data. IARC's method code for Samoa's incidence and mortality estimate is 5: rates based on incidence estimates or registry data from neighbouring countries. Read the figures as a regional estimate, not a count.

No trial record in OnCo lists a site in Samoa. OnCo reads sites from ClinicalTrials.gov; studies registered only elsewhere are searchable through the WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform.
OnCo holds no institution, company or person in Samoa.
OnCo records approvals for United States, European Union, United Kingdom, Japan, China, Australia and India. Samoa is not one of them, so no approval in OnCo speaks for it. See the approvals by region matrix for what is held.
Samoa is not among the 60 countries ranked in the country coverage queue (November 2026), which ranks countries without a page by cases, deaths, research output and population. Know a source? Suggest an edit.
