An error was discovered in the statistical significance displayed for several Average Annual Percent Change values within the report. The statistical significance has been corrected. |
The following pages were corrected:

A footnote was found to be missing from the tables that show 5-year relative survival rates by year of diagnosis (Example: Table 2.8 (PDF, 12 KB)). In this example, the 2005-2011 relative survival rates were missing footnote e which indicates that the differences between the 2005-2011 rate and the 1975-1977 rate is statistically significant. This footnote was missing from every table of this type in the report. The footnotes have been added to the tables as necessary. |
Tables presenting the both the SEER 9 1975-1977 and the SEER 9 2005-2011 5-year relative survival rates.
These pages appear in CSR Sections 2 through 27.
The tables appear in the following topic:

A footnote was to cite the wrong SEER areas as the data source for a subset of the tables that show 5-year relative survival rates by year of diagnosis. The 1996-1998, 1999-2001, 2002-2004 and 2005-2011 row labels for the rates were incorrectly cited as the SEER 18 areas. They were corrected to cite the SEER 9 areas. |
The following pages were corrected:
