T h t topic of ca/cmogeos it one about which there it much confusion and a lio much m Hundenanding. `Thii in turn leadt to the development of lean and apprehensions. At tn clinical medicine, the w ord cancer in indtnliy immediately tcem i to lead to despair, whereat our approach should be straight forward and intelligent. I think of cancer in induttry juit at I d o about any other potentially toxic problem in in* dutiry. What w e need when a problem develops is knowledge-- knowledge of the process, knowledge of the chemistry, know ledge of the exposure The more w e know 0
more likely we are to arrive at satisfactory solution. In this respect, then, cancer in industry is like any other problem solving.
first we have to have some knowledge of the experimental methods used by oncologists to test for carcinogenicity. In the case of the skin, the tests are relatively straightforward. You w ill note that I say "refabveiy" because tn fact even a skin car cinogenesis test has many elements that may serve to com plicate it Thus w e know that mice, hamsters, and rabbits do develop skin cancers in response to chemical agents painted on the skin white rats and guinea pigs seem to be refractory, and monkeys are resistant taking long periods to d o so. Thus the m ouse hat generally become the animal species used in this type of experiment Painting is usually done three times a week. If done more frequently the material applied may so severely damage the skin as to make TterpreUlion of results difficult If done less frequently the latent period for cancer development may be so long tint the animals die before developing cancer. Painting should be done with a minimum of rubbing to avoid damaging the skin. Som e workers even use a microoipttte so that no nabbing at all is done, just letting the material spread over die shaved skin in an accurately measured dose at each application The animals should be weighed periodically because if the material being painrad is toxic it may interfere w ith their growth and w e know that this in turn wiH interfere with tumor development
cause a skin-painting experiment rakes so long--u p to iw o years-- people are always looking for shortcuts. They want a chemical test or an accelerated biological test that w ill give them an answer in a few days or a few weeks. However desirable this may be, to far none of them have held up when examined closely. Thus it w as found that tome carcinogens w ould cause atrophy of the sebaceous glands of the skin and this was once proposed as a " q u < W test However, in a study of 130 compounds, Bock & M u rid ' found that some car cinogenic com pounds did not cause sebaceous gland atrophy, white som e non-carcinogenic com pounds d id Some chemical

tests may have limited application, but because of the wide variety of chemical com pounds that have been shewn to have carcinogenic activity it would be anticipated tlut no single chemical test w ould have universal applicability. Suffice it to say that an expert panel convened to advise (he food 4 Diug Administration concluded dial there were no truly satisfactory short-term tests that had been sulficientlTproven that they could substitute for long-term carcinogenesis tests.'
Some people h ive recommended that the material to be tested simply be injected or implanted s- hcutaoeously into rats or truce. This has the advantage of a known dote end minimal handling of the anim als.' But this method so fur has been shown to produce malignant tumors (sarcomas) in response to cellophane. Dacron, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, silastic, Pliofilm, Nylon, pofymethyl methacrylate, polystyrene. Suren. Ivulun, W -T, IHor\ silk,* and glass cover slips.' in our hands, w e found that a complex oil shown to be carcinogenic to the skin when painted caused a local abscess when injected subcutaneously w hich subsequently sloughed out without tumor formatiors Thus this route of testing may have limited application, especially if turnon are produced ai a site distant from the site of injection but if sarcomas at the site of injection are the only turnon formed, interpretation of their significance becomes extremely difficult
Another suggested test is that of implanting the material in the bladder of mice. This suggestion arose. I believe, from an entire misconception Thus in the study of bladder tumors oc culting in workers in the dye industry, beu-naphthylamine, when administered subcutaneously, was show n to produce bladder tumors in dogs but not m mice In searching (or the reason for this discrepancy it w as found that both man and dogs excrete 2-amino-1-naphthol as a metabolite of beta-
naphthylamme in their urine, whereas mice do not Dr. Ceotgianna Bonier, In England, concluded that maybe betanaphthytamme was not the carcinogen alter ail but the metabolite 2-amino-1-naphthol was. To test out this theory she Impregnated small wax pellets with 2-am ino-l-m phlhol and implanted them suigically into the bladders of mice. Sure ik enough, the mice developed bladder cancer. However, subsequenlly it has been show n that cholesterol, glass, stoanc acid, magnesium stearate, hexadccanol, ocradecanot, and
naphthalene* the oM-lathioned moth bail) all produced blad der tumors and cancers when implanted into the mouse blad der. None of these are suspected of being carcinogenic. Thus this lest does not seem to be a very sound one.
Incidentally, these studies of the metabolism of beunaphthylamine have ted to extensive metabolic studies and brisk scientific arguments about what truly is the caicmogemc agent. One school supports the 2-amino-l-naphthol metabolite

Him evr-r 'h e studies <i the implantation o< cholesleroh staanc t a d end other materials into the bladder,
previously mentioned. itw> hive serious practical con-
sid eriin x tor other studies Thus drettwlerw ulvcol and other material* ire claimed by tame to be 1 carcinogen on the b in s
thit they h iv e produced blidder cancers m mice. However,
such tumors and o n c e rs never developed unless (m l 1 ^ted
der stone s s it produced The question then irises-- is the
chem icii i carcinogen, or is the stone the carcinogen* It is in
teresting to note that the first experiments with cyclamates
were undertaken w ith such bladder implantation techniques
and had to be discounted until (ceding experiments were com
pleted Even now the eyetamale picture is m i c l because
them is som e question that the experimental anim als may hive
been infected with bladder parasite*, it is well know n tlwr
Silharaia. a bladder infestation of hum ans by Schistosoma
trematobium. is asiociaied with bladder cancer. In Egypt,
where B ifh iizi* is endemic, bladder cancer incidence is quite
high- The Schistosom es enter the body through the flan horn
water in w hich the Egyptians are w alking in eating for thru
fields from there they enter dvr bloodstream and ultimately
end :ip m the bladder. Incidentally, the secondary reservoir for
the Schivtosoma hematobtum is the snail, and m uch work is
going on trying to find an agent that w ill kill the snail without
producing other undesirable scological effects. The approach is
like killing the mosquito to eluniisale malaria.
Another approach that has been recommended to try to
shorten the necessary test period for carcinogens is the use of
newborn or sery young (suckling) m ice /ll was suggest* thtl an increased incidence and earlier appearance of malignancies could be obtained trom 1 single injection of potent car
cinogens However, newborn rats did not respond in the same
way as newborn mice.* Rather, they responded like adult
mice, further, more complete studies have show n that this lest
method probably has few true advantages * it may be that the
use of newborn or ,ery young mice w as predicated on the ab
sence of detoxifying enzymes m the newborn w hich sub.
sequently appear as the animal ages. It is know n that a benz
pyrene hydroxylase exisrs in the gastrointestinal tract," and it is
further know n that newborns are frequently lacking enzyme
systems that are present in adults. Even today, however, there
are those w ho strongly urge tht new born as a test animal
system.
Turning to experimental lung carcinogenesis, it is now
beginning to appear that multiple factors are probably
necessary to produce lung cancers in experimental animals
Thus in rats a com bination of repeated influenza vuus in
fections plus ozonized gasoline " or suitor dioxide and b e n zoU lp ym n e " or 7,12-d*nethyf-ben*(a)anthracene plus india in k " or, in hamsters, hematite plus beruo(a)pyrene" til
have led to lung cancer production. The evidence indicate*
that pure poiyaromanc com pounds Uk# beruofa) pyrene are

If in fact this is so. ^ may represent the fit lim e the ttaection of a carcinogen b ^ Jaboratory test* has subsequently beeiOofTowcd by th a u jvo itin cx gt cancers in humans. U sually eptdemioiogicjl studies have show n the presence of cancers in humans, and this in him has led to an intensnrt search in the laboratory far the carcinogen It is of interest that these workers have also been able to produce lung cancers In experimental animats w ith 2 .3-dtChloro-a-dioxane, ethyl brom oacetate, and f r em chlorbvdnn.** although these are week carcinogens. T h e / fit dem orw 'iMion of weak pulm onary carcinogenesis in anim ais/' / with these com pounds should alert everyone to minimize human expo- ares to (hem and to follow workers exposed to them w ith extra vigilance.
for completeness it should b e mentioned that pulmonary Carcinogenesis in anim als has been demonstrated for beryllium." mckel carbonyl," and radioactive materials.1* In terestingly enough, inhalation pulm onary carcinogenesis has not yet been demonstrated in expenm enu! anim als lor chromates" or asbestos," although the f o m h\ prntmwl f n . m ahg.yn.lex when imecuid fnt/jm u^ylyrly" ifttragleuraffy." /-* *, and tht latter has produced pulm onary fibrosis (asbestosis) when administered by inhalation" and m alignancy when given intrapJeuratly" in animals. Finally, various epoxides, lac tones. and peroxy com pounds have been show n to have a car cinogenic potential."
W ith this far-from-complete review of experiments) car cinogenesis w hich has been given only to emphasize the com plexity of the problem, I should now (ike to turn to som e in teresting recent epidemiological work. I shall not try to cover skin cancers in coal tar workers, m ule spinners, cutting oil users, wax pressmen, and the like, lung cancers m chromate workers, nickel refining, or asbestos workers (other than in sulators), bladder cancers in (he dye industry, nasal cancers in nick refining and isopropyl alcohol manufacture, or bone sar com as in radium dial painters because these have been covered in m y book" or other works. Presumably we arc discussing recent developments.
M u ch publicity has been given recently to asbestos as a pulm onary carcinogen and producer of pleural or peritoneal mesothelioma. Actually pulm onary cancer in asbestos workers h is been recognized for 25 to 30 ye a rs" The condition was catapulted into prominence by the observations of W agner*7! South Africa am ong miners and processors of asbestos and especially by Sehkoff and his cowodrers" am ong m .uiaiion workers What has made Sehkoff and his associates' work

It h to be hoped that the industrial hygiene measures introduced among these workers w ill soon have this situation under control.* There is still some dispute among workers m this field of whether the asbestos is a direct carcinogen or whether its carcinogenicity is due to certain oils that may he present m the asbestos naturally or through Con tamination." " O f perhaps more concern has been the ob servation that asbestos bodies can be found in the lungs of a very high percentage of people w ho come to autopsy and have never been exposed to asbestos in their work.11 Although this is of concern to many people, no one is yet prepared to say what its significance is. It is important not to jump to as-yct unwarranted conclusions on this observation, as I have often heard Dr. Selikoff say in talks on the subject.
As many people suspected, lung cancer incidence among
uranium miners has been shown to be increased." Again, the nsk seems to be much higher among smoking miners than among nonsm oking tinners There have been 62 lung cancer deaths am ong 3.414 white miners and two among 761 non white miners Them -- tns lr> have been estabished a dosem pom e iela)irwhip which may Hopefully permit the elimination of Ihrs disease in the future
Recently an outbreak of bladder cancers occurred among workers in the etectnc cable industry." This apparently resulted from the former use of beta-naphthytamine as an an tioxidant in the lubber sheathing used on the cables. Since this material has not been used by the rubber industry as an an tioxidant since about 1945, il is anticipated that these tumors wilt soon disappear However, it does poinl out the long latent period that can occur, and that in searchtng for etrologic agents m occupational cancer it may be important historically to go far back into the processes lo find the responsible agent
Am ong 8.047 workers in a metal smelter works, 147 res piratory cancer deaths among 1,877 total deaths were report ed M The causa: e agent in this case w as believed lo be ar senic trioside exposures by inhalation, although some relation ship to 5 0 r exposures was also demonstrated. This recalls the association between sulfur dioxide and beoio(a)pyrene in animals demonstrated by the NYU group and previously d iscuss'd "
A_ real surgrise has been the demonstration in England'1 of an increased risk of nasal cancer occulting in woodworkers in ihe lumiture industry Thts seems to be associated with the use of hsnf woods To date, no one has come forward with a good cu-ss to what the causative agent might be in this situation U rd-xihvdly, this observation w ill lead to extensive laboratory srud'es, both chemical and biological, m an attempt to ure <nve* (*- causative agent

However, the more recent observations seem to establish this association beyond a doubt More recent observations of chromosome changes in workers exposed to ben m e " * lend further weight to the leukemogrnic nature of benzene, tn any event in our own operations we are proceeding as it benzene w as a teuken.ogrnic agent eliminating exposures wherever possible and reducing them to the lowest passible level where com plete elimination cannot be accomplished
It has been teported" * that hang cancer Incidence In Poor- . ^ 7 f spar miners is 29 ernes the expected rue It was found in this situation that radon and radon daughter exposures are in ex cess of the maximum permissible concentrations and H is believed that this is the cause In this respect these lung can cers are similar lo those seen In uianlum miners and in Ihe okf (oachimstfwI-Schneebuig mines.
A study ol lung cancer among coke oven workers in the sled industry" showed that they suffered a 2-1/2 6mes in creased Incidence of that disease. This increased to five times among men w ho worked topside on the ovens, and to ten limes if they worked five or more years fullrime upside. If is likely that exposure ro very high levels of benzo-a-pyrene and similar polycyclic aromatic com pounds occurred, although H is rjurte possible, due lo the compter chemical nature of coal lar, that other promoting or (-carcinogenic, such i s phenols or nitrogenous, com pounds have contributed to the increased in cidence- Undoubtedly, intensive chemical end biological studies ol this situation w in be undertaken w hich w ill In time elucidate the causative agents and their comparative significance.
I have tried to develop lor you tonight some of the more recent developments in experimenal carcinogenesis as applied to Industrial problem , and some recent epidemiological studies of industrial cancers. I believe our approaches to oc cupationally induced cancer should not differ from the ap proaches we use in any potential occupational toxicity problem. W e should study and become intimately acquainted with the processes involved, not sim ply by studying engineering or Row diagrams, but by actually getting out into the work place end observing just what Is done. This w ill give us some idee of the personal hygiene of the workers involved as well as possible industrial hygiene measures that may be ap plicable. W e should conduct appropriately designed toxicologicil less, in this case carcinogenic tests, un derstanding fully the limitations and pitfalls of any such tests we conduct. W e should carefully examine the workers in volved to detect early signs of exposure or early pre-canceroui changes. Thus appropriate urine or blood analyses lor nickel or chromium, or lor phenols in the case ol benrene exposures should be made. In some cases early biopsy or Papanicolaou smears of appropnale secretions should be undertaken At every opportunity, we should stress the avoidance of un necessary exposure I can think of no area where the '"operative efforts of industrial hygienists, indusinat nurses and industrial physicians can have a more salutary effect than in the control of industrial carcinogens and thus in the control of occupational cancers
