The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what information his Department holds on the number and proportion of prostate cancer cases that had presented with stage 4 metastatic disease at first diagnosis in Leyton and Wanstead constituency in the most recent year that data are available.

Answered by Ashley Dalton

The Department does not have specific data for Leyton and Wanstead. However, we can provide diagnosis data at an integrated care board (ICB) level. Specifically, we can offer information on diagnoses at stages 3 and 4 for the North-East London ICB. In 2022, 400 men were diagnosed with stage 3 or stage 4 conditions within the NHS North East London ICB.
