The fundamental unit of a human body is a cell. Cells die if they are very old or highly damaged. So, they grow, divide and make new cells to replace them. However, if there is a change in the gene of a body, cells start growing uncontrollably and form a mass of tissue called tumor. There are cancerous tumor and benign tumor. Sometimes cancerous tumor spread to the other body parts, and we commonly have known this as a cancer. Now a day, cancer is a great challenge of human being. In Manipur, lung cancer is very high in both gender and nasopharyngeal cancer is also relatively high. In this paper it studied about the significant difference between age group and gender affected by the cancer and an attempt has been made to predict the number of cancer cases in Manipur. Secondary data are collected from PBCR, RIMS, IMPHAL and analysed with help of statistical tools using excel and found that Maximum number of cancer cases found in Imhal West and Imphal East districts and less number cancer cases found in Tamenglong district during the year 2012-2016. Among the age group there is difference of cancer cases in year 2012-2016. Age group 60-69 has maximum number of individual affected by cancer. Females are more affected by cancer than male. Finally, the prediction of cancer cases follows a linear pattern increasing year by year as Y =86.4X-172370.

Cancer, prediction of cancer cases.
