So saying curable doesn't mean that 100% of these patients will be cured. The percentage of getting cured depends on the stage at which we are diagnosed with lung cancer. Like in stage one lung cancer, we will say that around 80% of patients get cured. Similarly, in stage three lung cancer, this percentage falls up to 25 to 30%. In stage four lung cancer, it is not a life sentence for the patient. With the modern advancement in the treatment of lung cancer, now at present we have targeted therapy, immunotherapy, chemotherapy was already there with us. So with these kinds of treatments, we can increase the longevity of the patient, as well as we can also increase the quality of life. For example, if I say that a patient who is diagnosed with stage four lung cancer around 5 to 7 years back, longevity was around 1 year or 1 and a half years, but now with immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and chemotherapy, we can increase the life of the patient even up to 15 to 20 years with the help of immunotherapy, even in stage four. So, giving up hope if the patient is diagnosed with stage four lung cancer is not necessary with the present modes of treatment. #doctorscircle #LungCancer #LungCancerAwareness #CancerHope #NeverGiveUp #Stage4Cancer #CancerSurvivor #HopeAfterCancer #CancerTreatment #Immunotherapy #TargetedTherapy #CancerCare #FightingCancer #CancerSupport #DoctorExplains #MedicalAwareness #HealthAwareness #QualityOfLife #CancerIsNotTheEnd
