Lung Cancer What Is The Approximate Survival Rate Of The Stage IV Lung Cancer?

What is the approximate survival rate of the stage IV lung cancer? - lung cancer

One of my closest relatives were diagnosed with kidney cancer last September. It operates, which was obviously very good. But check this summer again, and it was found that the cancer has spread to two of his lungs. From September this year, found a drug called gefitinib, allegedly the only effective drug against lung cancer today.

But I really wonder what their real chances of survival of lung cancer.

Thank you very much.

Your family is in an advanced stage ..... Although every patient is different, it is my experience could be something a few weeks to months, unfortunately, lung cancer is very fast and aggressive and are often not recognized in the later stages, so. .. Why is the rate of survival and hope is very low .... I send greetings to you and your family xx

Therefore, your question can not be doubted. You should maintain the possibility of surgery or radiofrequency ablation monitoring the Mets are below a certain size. However, gefitinib, at work. . tolerated and has few side effects a patient for a long time. . Well, this may be the best choice at this point. It depends on decisions by her.
