Treatment of testicular cancer is one of the success stories of modern medicine, with sustained response to treatment in more than 90% of cases, regardless of stage. [53] In 2011 overall cure rates of more than 95% were reported, and 80% for metastatic disease—the best response by any solid tumor, with improved survival being attributed ...
In the United States there has been an increase in the 5-year relative survival rate between people diagnosed with cancer in 1975-1977 (48.9%) and people diagnosed with cancer in 2007-2013 (69.2%); these figures coincide with a 20% decrease in cancer mortality from 1950 to 2014. [8]
Cancer mortality rates are determined by the relationship of a population's health and lifestyle with their healthcare system. In the United States during 2013–2017, the age-adjusted mortality rate for all types of cancer was 189.5/100,000 for males, and 135.7/100,000 for females. [ 1 ]
For example, adolescents and young adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) may have better outcomes if they are treated with pediatric treatment protocols rather than adult treatment protocols. The 5-year survival rates for 15- to 19-year-olds with ALL has risen to 74% as of 2007–2013, from survival rates of around 50% in the early 1990s.
PT-DLBCL is by far the most common form of testicular cancer in men >60 years of age. [2] It usually develops in this age group (median age ~65 years old, range 10–96 years) and presents as a painless testicular mass or swelling in one testis or, in ~6% of cases, both testes: [1] PT-DLBCL is the most common testicular cancer to present with disease in both testicles. [8]
The research was funded by the National Institute of Cancer in France. ESOPHAGEAL CANCER. This German study looked at 438 people with a type of cancer of the esophagus that can be treated with ...
This treatment method is commonly linked with blood cancers like multiple myeloma, Hodgkin's lymphoma, and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. It is also used in solid tumors such as germ cell tumors and certain high risk or recurrent breast cancers. Multiple myeloma, a type of plasma cell cancer [3] is an indication for HDC. Typically it follows stem cell ...
As is the case for all reproductive cancers, a degree of caution is taken when deciding to use adjuvant therapy to treat early stage testicular cancer. Though the 5-year survival rates for stage I testicular cancers is approximately 99%, there still exists controversy over whether to overtreat stage I patients to prevent relapse or to wait ...
