This statistic shows the amount of registrations of newly diagnosed cases of cancer in England in 2017, by age group and gender. With a a total of 27,883 cases in 2017, the age group most affected by cancer in terms of number of cases was that of 70 to 74 year old males. 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.
