Overview

In 2012, the incidence of multiple myeloma was approximately 6.3 per 100,000 cases with a mortality rate of 3.3 per 100,000 cases in the United States.[1] The prevalence of multiple myeloma was estimated to be 89,658 cases in 2012 in the United States.[2][3] Multiple myeloma is the second most common blood cancer after non-Hodgkin's lymphoma & 14th most common cancer overall in United States.[4][5][6] Males are more commonly affected with multiple myeloma than females. The male to female ratio is approximately 1.54 to 1.[7][8] Multiple myeloma usually affects individuals of the African American and Native Pacific Islanders race. Asian individuals are less likely to develop multiple myeloma.[9] The incidence of multiple myeloma increases with age; the median age at diagnosis is between 65 to 70 years.[10]

Epidemiology and Demographics

Incidence

  • In 2012, the incidence of multiple myeloma waws approximately 6.3 per 100,000 individuals with a case-fatality rate of 3.3 per 100,000 in the United States.[11]
  • In 2014, multiple myeloma constituted approximately 1.4 percent of the estimated new cancer cases.[12]
  • In 2015, the estimated incidence of multiple myeloma is 1.6% of all new cancer cases and 1.9% of all cancer mortality cases.[13]
  • Multiple myeloma is the 14th leading cause of cancer death in the United States.[14]
  • Since 1975, the overall multiple myeloma incidence has increased nearly 1 percent annually.[15]

Prevalance

  • Myeloma is the 14th leading cause of cancer death in the United States.[16]
  • Multiple myeloma is the second most prevalent blood cancer (10%) after non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.[4][17]
  • There are approximately 76,000 people in the United States living with multiple myeloma. [18]
  • Multiple myeloma represents approximately 1% of all cancers and 2% of all cancer deaths.[19]
  • In 2012, there were an estimated 89,658 people living with multiple myeloma in the United States.[20]

Age

  • The incidence of multiple myeloma increases with age where the median age at diagnosis is is 65 to 70 years. Recent statistics concerning earlier age of onset in multiple myelom indicate an increase in incidence among the population.[21]
  • Multiple myeloma is a common malignancy of patients above 40 years old (70% of cases are diagnosed between 50 and 70 years of age.[22])

Gender

  • Male are more commonly affected with multiple myeloma than female. The male to female ratio is approximately 1.54 to 1.[23]

Race

  • Multiple myeloma usually affects individuals of the African American and Native Pacific Islanders race. Asian and Native Indian individuals are less likely to develop multiple myeloma.[24]
  • Among African Americans, multiple myeloma is one of the top 10 leading causes of cancer deaths.[25]
