During 2018, 379 male and 112 female New Jersey residents were diagnosed with cancer of the esophagus. Esophageal cancer does have some modifiable risk factors. You can reduce your risk of developing this disease by avoiding tobacco and alcohol, watching your diet and body weight, and getting treated for gastroesophageal reflux disease or Barrett's esophagus.
Between 1990 and 2018, the age-adjusted esophageal cancer rate in males averaged 8.4 cases per 100,000. In females, the average rate was 2.2 cases per 100,000. The lifetime risk of developing esophageal cancer is 1 in 125 for men and 1 in 417 for women.
A Comprehensive Cancer Control Plan was developed by the Task Force on Cancer Prevention, Early Detection and Treatment in New Jersey which aims to reduce the incidence, illness and death due to cancer among New Jersey residents, [https://www.cdc.gov/cancer/ncccp/ccc_plans.htm]
