In a study based on the Los Angeles County, United States, Cancer Surveillance Program, white male chemists with malignant melanoma and with other cancers (used as controls) were interviewed (Wright et al., 1983). Four of the seven chemists with malignant melanoma gave a history of exposure to benzoyl peroxide (among many other chemicals) and none of the nine controls. 

Isacson et al. (1985) examined the association between cancer incidence and indices of water contamination in an ecological study conducted in the central United States. Cancer incidence rates in towns with populations between 1000 and 10 000 were compared by level of volatile organic compounds and metals in the drmking-water. Among men, significant associations between the level of 1,2-dichloroethane (>0.1 ppm) and colon p = 0.009) and rectal cancer p = 0.02) were observed. The authors stated that 1,2-dichloroethane might be an indicator for other types of contamination rather than a causal agent.

Cancer is uncommon during the first two decades of life, but is nonetheless a substantial concern. In the United States, cancer is diagnosed in approximately 12 400 children and adolescents annually and is the most common cause of death from any kind of disease between 1 and 19 years of age. In the United States and other developed countries, lymphoid neoplasms (leukaemia, lymphoma) and cancers of the central nervous system are the most common paediatric malignancies. Other kinds of childhood tumours include embryonal tumours of the retina, sympathetic nervous system, kidney, and liver tumours of bone and soft connective tissues and certain gonadal neoplasms. Different kinds of cancer (e.g. carcinomas of liver or thyroid) may predominate in children in parts of the world where specific environmental risk factors are more prevalent.
