   Sep 12, 2024 · Read the IARC Monographs Q&A for answers to commonly asked questions on the evaluation process. Note: In September 2022, four additional individual Group 1 agents were created by splitting up some existing agent groupings because not all agents in the groups had the same cancer sites with sufficient and limited evidence for cancer in humans.

   What are IARC assessments of carcinogenicity based on?

   • IARC assessments of carcinogenicity are based on, and necessarily limited to, scientific evidence available at the time of the review. The evidence comes from epidemiologic studies, animal bioassays, pharmacokinetic/mechanistic experiments, and surveys of human exposure.

   How does the IARC select a carcinogenic agent?

   • The IARC staff makes the final selection of agents for review by taking into account the prevalence and intensity of exposure (of both occupational groups and the general population) and availability of sufficient literature for an evaluation of carcinogenicity, as well as advice from the Advisory Groups.

   What is an IARC monograph?

   • An IARC Monograph is not a new study. It is a comprehensive and critical review and evaluation of the published scientific evidence on the carcinogenicity of human exposures. This review includes data on cancer in humans, cancer bioassays, and the mechanisms of carcinogenesis.

   Why did IARC create a list of agents that cause cancer?

   • Shortly after IARC’s establishment, its parent entity, the World Health Organization (WHO), asked IARC to prepare a list of agents known to cause cancer in humans. IARC recognized the need for a systematic process to determine which agents should be listed.
