Tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of cancer and cancer deaths.
- About 3 in 10 cancer deaths are caused by cigarette smoking. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death for both men and women.
- Quitting tobacco use at any age can reduce the risk of getting or dying from cancer.
- Getting screened for cancer can lead to fewer people getting or dying from some tobacco-related cancers (cervix, colorectal, and lung).
