Since 1967, Fermilab has worked to answer these and other fundamental questions and enhance our understanding of everything we see around us. As the United States' premier particle physics laboratory, we work on the world's most advanced particle accelerators and dig down to the smallest building blocks of matter.
So, survival rate and life expectancy for stage 4 prostate cancer cannot be favorable. âº The five-year relative survival rate for prostate cancer that has spread to distant organs is 28%. This means about 28% of the patients with stage 4 prostate cancer will live for five years.
If the cancer has spread to a distant part of the body (stage IV), which is its latest stage, the five-year survival rate is 4%. Lung cancer makes up 13% of all cancer diagnoses and 27% of all cancer deaths.he one-year survival rate is the percentage of people who survive at least one year after the cancer is found. For all people with lung cancer, the one-year survival rate is 44%. The five-year survival rate is 17%. Survival rates depend on several factors, the subtype of lung cancer and the stage of disease.
