    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: The Report on Carcinogens (RoC) is a congressionally mandated, science-based public health document that the National Toxicology Program (NTP) prepares for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Secretary. The latest cumulative report, the 15th RoC, includes 256 listings of substances - chemical, physical, and biological agents; mixtures; and exposure circumstances - that are known or reasonably anticipated to cause cancer in humans. For each listed substance, a profile, i.e., a short synopsis of key studies on cancer, exposure data, and regulations to limit exposure, is prepared. For readers' convenience, profiles for related exposures or selected members of chemical families often are grouped. The report also includes supplemental information to provide context for the listings, including an introduction, glossary, indexes, and review process. To determine whether a substance should be listed in the RoC, a rigorous assessment is conducted of publicly available, relevant cancer studies in humans and animals and mechanistic studies using systematic review methods and established criteria. The listed substances include the following. A: Acetaldehyde; 2-Acetylaminofluorene; Acrylamide; Acrylonitrile; Adriamycin; Aflatoxins; Alcoholic Beverage Consumption; 2-Aminoanthraquinone; o-Aminoazotoluene; 4-Aminobiphenyl; 1-Amino-2,4-dibromoanthraquinone; 2-Amino-3,4-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline (see Heterocyclic Amines [Selected]); 2-Amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (see Heterocyclic Amines [Selected]); 1-Amino-2-methylanthraquinone; 2-Amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline (see Heterocyclic Amines [Selected]); 2-Amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (see Heterocyclic Amines [Selected]); Amitrole; Analgesic Mixtures Containing Phenacetin (see Phenacetin and Analgesic Mixtures Containing Phenacetin); o-Anisidine and Its Hydrochloride; Antimony Trioxide; Aristolochic Acids; Arsenic and Inorganic Arsenic Compounds; Asbestos; Azacitidine; Azathioprine.
