Mesothelioma Survival Rates About 40 percent of patients with
mesothelioma survive the first year after diagnosis. That survival rate
depends on many factors, including age, cancer stage, cancer type, race
and gender.
Long-term survivors attribute their success to treatment from a
mesothelioma specialist, alternative medicine and nutritional changes.
Average mesothelioma survival rates Mesothelioma claimed nearly 30,000
American lives between 1999 and 2010. About 40 percent of U.S. patients
live to the one year mark. By the second year, about 20 percent of
patients are still alive.
And by the third year, the number is 8 percent. How is survival rate
measured? Researchers describe the mesothelioma survival rate in several
ways. They usually talk about it in terms of one-year survival, the
percentage of people who survive for a year after diagnosis. Through
their studies, they also look at longer survival times, including the
number of people who live two years, three years and five years.
