Cancer survival for common cancers. Survival varies between cancer types, ranging from 98% for testicular cancer to just 1% for pancreatic cancer. Many of the most commonly diagnosed cancers have ten-year survival of 50% or more (2010-11).
Survival rates vary by cancer type as well as being influenced by stage of detection, diagnosis and treatment. For example, the latest UK data shows the 5-year age-standardised survival rate for breast cancer – that is, the percentage of people who are alive 5 years after diagnosis – is over 80%.
