| Abstract |
Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable and treatable forms of cancer, yet it remains a significant global health challenge, claiming the life of a woman approximately every two minutes. The incidence (ASR) in Malaysia as reported by the National Cancer Registry in 2017-2021 was 6 per 100,000 women with 4,473 new cases (Ministry of Health). It stands as the sixth most common cancer among women globally. The objective of this study is to outline Malaysia’s progress toward cervical cancer elimination by 2030, aligned with WHO 90-70-90 targets. Conclusion, Malaysia is commited to eliminating cervical cancer by 2030. Sustaining HPV vaccination, expanding HPV DNA screening, and improving treatment access are key strategies to achieving the 90-70-90 elimination goal. |
