Cancer Patient Population Projections in Australia

Welcome to the Cancer Patient Population Projections Dashboard, a data visualisation tool for exploring patient population projections for a range of cancer types in Australia, developed using the Daffodil Centre’s Policy1 platform statistical and simulation models. 

These estimates are projections of cancer burden. The reported outcomes are estimates and projections based on available data and information as of the date of upload. New data, evolving understanding of cancer development, and new circumstances may change estimates in the future.

About the Project

The results have been generated using the Daffodil Centre’s Policy1 platform. In order to predict the future burden of cancer, the Cancer Patient Population Projections (Cancer-PPP) Project has facilitated the development, or in some cases refinement, of statistical and simulation models for a variety of cancer types and biomarkers, as part of the Daffodil Centre’s world renowned, extensively published and validated predictive platform, Policy1.
