Guadeloupe's population cancer registry, based at the university hospital. It counts new cancers on the island and studies their causes, including pesticides and the risk of myeloma.
The Registre général des cancers de la Guadeloupe is a general registry of the French network of cancer registries (Francim). With the Martinique and La Réunion registries it collected the data for the survival study of the overseas departments published in February 2024. INCa's summary of its 2023 research projects lists work on social and geographical inequalities in cancer in the overseas departments (from 2016), the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori in stomach cancers in the French Antilles (from 2019, stopped in Martinique) and MYELODOM, on myeloma and lymphoma and environmental and occupational exposure to pesticides (from 2017), with the CHU de la Guadeloupe as manager of the funds. Its data also underlie the 2022 study of digestive cancers in Guadeloupe, French Guiana and Martinique, which found stomach cancer incidence above that of mainland France. The coordinates are the point for the CHU de la Guadeloupe.
