It is possible to survive any of the 4 stages of cancer, but stage 4 is the least likely to survive because the tumor is no longer localized in one place but has metastasized, spawning thousands of small tumors everywhere in the body. Strong chemotherapy is usually required to treat stage 4 cancer (and some of the toxic drugs used for chemotherapy can kill you faster than the cancer itself if they are not carefully managed by the oncologists).
