Stage 4 has the lowest life expectancy due to the cancer’s spread, which can limit patients from undergoing more aggressive, life-extending treatments. However, stage 4 mesothelioma survival rates are just an average — they aren’t set in stone and don’t dictate your future. Many patients...

Stage 4 Mesothelioma Prognosis While the prognosis for stage 4 mesothelioma patients is poor, life expectancy and survival rates can vary depending on responsiveness to treatment. Some stage 4 mesothelioma patients have gone into partial remission. Mesothelioma survival rate statistics cannot predict ho...
Stage 2 is one of the four main stages of cancer, including lung cancer from asbestos. Patients who have stage 2 lung cancer often have many treatment options available to remove or kill the tumor, which helps with the survival rates.
Other tumors — such as colon tumors — we’ve seen survival rates of five years that are quite routine. In colorectal cancers treated with standard chemotherapy, the survival rate is about two years. And that’s improved from the past, which is good. So for patients who may not be candi...
OBJECTIVES There is a body of opinion that advocates extrapleural pneumonectomy (EPP) as the only radical treatment option for locally advanced (T3/T4) malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). We tested the hypothesis that lung-sparing total pleurectomy (LSTP) can be as effective as EPP in ...
Overall, in SCLC, early-stage cases in the IASLC data set show higher survival rates than the NCDB, which is consistent with what is seen in NSCLC. The same can be said for both clinically and pathologically staged cases, so that the proportion of surgical cases in the IASLC data set can...

The current study characterizes the overall survival (OS) and cause-specific survival (CSS) of patients with stage I nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who were treated with radiotherapy alone, and analyzes the variables potentially affecting survival outcomes. METHODS: A total of 8524 patients with...
Figure 2. Overall survival did not differ between the cisplatin plus pemetrexed and cisplatin plus vinorelbine arms, with the median survival not reached in the cisplatin plus pemetrexed arm, a rate of 59% in the cisplatin plus vinorelbine arm, and similar 3-year overall survival rates of 75%...
