Review the scientific evidence regarding the relationship between diabetes and cancer incidence, prognosis, shared risk factors, biological mechanisms, and diabetes therapies.
Convened an expert panel jointly organized by the American Diabetes Association and the American Cancer Society.
Synthesized current epidemiologic and biological literature examining cancer risk, outcomes, and therapies in individuals with diabetes.
Epidemiologic evidence identifies elevated cancer incidence and altered prognosis among individuals with diabetes, mediated partly by common risk factors.
Biological pathways linking metabolic dysregulation in diabetes to enhanced oncogenesis and tumor progression were characterized.
Evidence indicates potential influences of specific diabetes treatments on cancer risk and prognosis, identifying critical priorities for future investigation.
