Good news! Impressive! Cancer is history (soon)!
Keep in mind: With every extra year, a cancer patient has the chance to receive the latest new cancer treatments as they become available possibly extending the life even further. Every extra year matters a lot.
"The five-year relative survival rate for US cancer patients rose from 49 percent for patients diagnosed in 1975–1979 to 71 percent for those diagnosed in 2016–2022, according to a recent report from the American Association for Cancer Research. Relative survival adjusts for deaths from causes other than cancer by comparing patients with the general population."
