My post needs clarification has members reading it do not know what I'm asking .I posted like 7 questions but not getting the asnswer I want I think do to a language problem with english.

My question was most deadly cancer and no progress in lung cancer, pancreatic cancer , stomach cancer ,prostate cancer and cholangiocarcinoma cancer.

But the question should be I'm not knowable to make the claim if very little to no progress can some one here more knowable explain and I'm looking for a 10 year stats chart to see if very little to no progress .


I got one chart.

All sites 66%
Breast 89%
Colon 65%
Leukemia 50%
Lung cancers 16%
Melanoma 92%
Non-Hodgkin lymphoma64%
Ovary45%
Pancreas 5%
Prostate 99%
Rectum 66%
Urinary bladder 81%
stomach ?
cholangiocarcinoma ?

But looking for a stats of 10 year like from 1999 to 2009 to see if my claim if very little to no progress true or false.

Also I made a claim (((( There are 300 types of cancer and the vast majority have a 50% five year survival rate and the non majority are from one spectrum to 80% higher to other spectrum of only 10% or 5%. ))) Is some one more knowable to explain if this claim is true or false.

I should also put a disclaimer do to I'm not knowable with cancer topic it may be offensive to doctors or cancer researchers as a person not knowable like my self on this topic it seems there is little to no progress , but that may be do to the media does not talk about healthcare breakthroughs or what is going on in the lab and research as this is not cool has it is more cool to talk about ipad or police shooting /bank robbery in the news than healthcare .



Well hopefully this where clear up my bad post and get the proper answer has I think we have language problem with english and I keep posting the old post and not getting the asnswer I want , hopefully this clarification should help what I'm asking for.

If you want cancer statistics you look them up at the National Cancer Institute’s website.

The key search words are "5 year survival rates" or "prognosis and stages of cancer" I think.



You can try websites like:

http://www.cancer.gov/statistics

http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/

http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/

http://www.nih.gov

http://www.cdc.gov

http://www.rarediseases.org (look up the disease, then scroll down for support organizations)

http://www.clinicaltrials.gov (may have some statistics from finished clinical trials and the reports and stats from those trials).

http://www.unicef.org/health/index_statistics.html

http://www.paho.org/english/dd/ais/hsa2006.htm

http://www.who.int/whosis/whostat/2010/en/index.html



Or websites like for the American Cancer Society or specific cancer support groups for specific cancers and their websites.
