Pancreatic cancer is one of the few cancers for which survival has not improved substantially over nearly 40 years. Pancreatic cancer has the highest mortality rate of all major cancers. 91% of pancreatic cancer patients will die within five years of diagnosis â only 9% will survive more than five years.
The one-year survival rate of people with pancreatic cancer is 28%, and the five-year survival rate is 7%. If the cancer is detected at an early stage when surgical removal of the tumor is possible, the five-year survival rate is about 26%.
