In this context, "rise in" suggests a general increase or emergence of the number of cancer cases. It conveys the idea that the change is associated with the overall growth or occurrence of cancer cases in the specified age group, not necessarily emphasising the numerical growth within the existing cases.
Therefore, the complete sentence is: "This change is responsible for a recent rise in the number of cases of cancer in this age group."
