NKCA SotN 2025 Report and Supporting Documents
Source: data.gov.uk (2025-09-24)

National Kidney Cancer Audit State of the Nation Report 2025. The National Kidney Cancer Audit (NKCA) aims to evaluate the patterns of care and outcomes for people with kidney cancer in England and Wales, using routinely collected data and to support services to improve their care quality.

This second State of the Nation report aims to help NHS organisations to benchmark their kidney cancer care against measurable standards, to identify unwarranted variation in measures of processes and outcomes, and to describe national levels and patterns of these measures in England and Wales.

This report includes people diagnosed with kidney cancer between January 2018 to December 2022 in England, and January 2022 to December 2023 in Wales. It reports on eight performance indicators for England and four for Wales outlined in the NKCA Quality Improvement Plan 2024. The report also describes the national picture and variation between NHS trusts in England/health boards in Wales.
