A member asked:
What is the survival rate for a 46 yr old man with stage 1 pacreatic cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Approxiamate guess: I'm guessing that you have already had surgery. Stage 1 pancreatic cancer has an approximate 5 year survival of 15-20%. That means that if you take every patient that has stage 1 pancreatic cancer, then 15-20% of those patients would be alive in 5 years. Remember that every patient is different and that every cancer is different.
