Abstract. Significance. Over the past decades the country has hardly seen any improvements in major indicators of cancer care. This substantiates significance of the problem and rationale for a multidimensional approach to solve the problem through a comprehensive analysis of several information databases including data on territorial and time peculiarities of cancers that serve as a base for studying malignant neoplasm of male reproductive organs within a particular region.

The study purpose is to scientifically assess major indicators of morbidity and mortality from cancer of male reproductive organs in a particular region of the Russian Federation.

Methods and Data. Data on disease morbidity and mortality as well as reporting forms of statistical registration of cancer patients and governing documents of superior bodies. Data on twenty year observations over dynamics in quantitative indicators of cancer were used.

Results and Discussion. The study outlines basic indicators of care delivery to men with cancer of reproductive organs in the Amur region that are characterized by an ongoing increase in cancer morbidity and mortality. The study shows that the highest number of cases is reported in older ages. The paper tracks a growing number of patients with the initial presentation of the disease and a declining number of patients with advanced cancers. Detection of patients has significantly improved with a substation reduction in deaths within the first year of diagnosis.

Against the background of certain success in the Cancer service performance there is a significant increase in mortality from cancer of the male reproductive organs of all localizations. Quality of the Cancer service activities was estimated using index of reliability of cancer registration that is traditionally comparable with other regions of the country.

The authors recommend to use the study results in practice of the Cancer service of the Amur region to develop priorities for the targeted health, social and economic programs.

Conclusions. Despite major efforts of research institutes and healthcare organizations in the Amur region aimed at reducing morbidity and mortality from malignant neoplasms, their rates remain high with a trend of annual increase in statistical indicators.
