This volume comprises two monographs: talc and acrylonitrile. In response to public health demand, the monograph on talc was first released in advance on 30 June 2025.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Working Group evaluated acrylonitrile as <em>carcinogenic to humans<\/em> (Group 1) on the basis of <em>sufficient<\/em> evidence for cancer in humans. There was also <em>sufficient<\/em> evidence for cancer in experimental animals, and <em>strong <\/em>mechanistic evidence that acrylonitrile exhibits key characteristics of carcinogens in experimental systems.<\/p>\r\n<p>Talc was evaluated as <em>probably<\/em> <em>carcinogenic to humans<\/em> (Group 2A) on the basis of the combinations of <em>limited<\/em> evidence for cancer in humans, <em>sufficient<\/em> evidence for cancer in experimental animals, and <em>strong<\/em> mechanistic evidence in human primary cells and experimental systems. This evaluation for talc supersedes the previous classifications of \u201ctalc not containing asbestos or asbestiform fibres\u201d and \u201cperineal use of talc-based body powder\u201d. \u201cTalc containing asbestos\u201d was not re-evaluated and retains its classification in Group 1, within \u201cAsbestos\u201d.<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/publications.iarc.who.int\/646\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Visit the Volume 136 webpage<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":60518,"template":"","class_list":["post-60516","news-events","type-news-events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","cancer-site_taxonomy-bladder-cancer-fr","cancer-site_taxonomy-lung-cancer-fr","cancer-site_taxonomy-ovarian-cancer-fr","research-topic_taxonomy-cancer-hazard-identification-fr","risk-factor_taxonomy-environmental-exposures-fr","risk-factor_taxonomy-occupational-exposures-fr","risk-factor_taxonomy-tobacco-fr"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iarc.spherical.horse\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-events\/60516","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iarc.spherical.horse\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iarc.spherical.horse\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news-events"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iarc.spherical.horse\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/60518"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iarc.spherical.horse\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=60516"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
