    Citation Excerpt :

    Cancer is a generic term for large group of disease and involves the rapid formation of abnormal cells with the tendency to invade adjoining tissues and organs, called metastasis (Jiang et al., 2015; Wittekind and Neid, 2005). So far 600 plus types of cancer have been claimed by International Classification of Diseases-11, and skin cancer has remained as one of the most common malignant neoplasms in fair-skinned populations (Hiatt and Beyeler, 2020; Gupta et al., 2016; Dadzie et al., 2014) According to the estimates from Global Cancer Observatory (GLOBOCAN), almost 19.3 million new cancer cases and around 10.0 million cancer deaths has turned out in 2020. Significant increase in the global cancer burden is expected to be 28.4 million cases by the 2040, i.e. approximately double the rise in digits from 2020 (Sung et al., 2021).
