The later the stage of diagnosis the lower the survival rates tend to be. PERCENTAGE (%) 1. SEER. Fast Stats Online. 5 year survival by diagnosis All races. All ages. Male and Female.

NSCLC (83.6% of lung cancer) Lung Cancer (100%) NSCLC makes up approximately 84% of lung cancer 1 Other NSCLC (19.1% of lung cancer) Squamous cell carcinoma (18.6% of lung cancer) Adenocarcinoma (44.1% of lung cancer) 1.Howlader N, Noone AM, Krapcho M, et al. (eds). SEER Cancer Statistics Review, , National Cancer Institute. Bethesda, MD, based on November 2013 SEER data submission, posted to the SEER web site, April 2014, accessed on 12/03/2015.

The distribution of NSCLC subtypes is changing 1 Since the 1980’s, squamous cell carcinomas have become relatively less common Meanwhile, adenocarcinomas have become relatively more common 1.
