Cancer Survival Rates

Estimates for observed survival and age-standardized relative survival, confidence intervals for estimates, trends by cancer type.

Survival estimates

Survival summary plot. This document shows the change in 5-year age-standardized relative survival rates by cancer type for BC adults, 1997-2016

By cancer type. This document shows:
