From a previous answer from Answers.com:
Absolutely! Moderately to poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma is treatable - these terms refer to the histologic grade of the tumor (how "bad" or "disorganized" it is). Well-differentiated SCC forms "keratin pearls" - or balls of skinn epithelium - within the tumor. Moderately to poorly differentiated tend not to do so, and instead are made of sheets of what can be "ugly"-looking cell.
The bottom line is that prognostically - in predicting a given patient's outcome - histological grade of SCC is not related very well at all to how well a patient will respond to treatment. The SIZE of the tumor and whether and lymph nodes are positive for metastasis of the tumor are much more predictive than the degree of differentiation.

Does John McCain have skin cancer?
John McCain has been treated several times for skin cancer. He was treated for Squamous Cell Carcinoma before the election in 2008. Squamous Cell Carcinoma is a common type of skin cancer and easily treatable type of skin cancer. He has been treated for melanoma, a much more dangerous type of skin cancer, four time. Three of those times, the cancer was found in a very early stage and quickly taken care of. The cancer that caused the most worry was a melanoma on his left cheek that was diagnosed and treated in 2000. It went to a depth of about 2.2 millimeter's, making it a Stage 2 cancer. The cancer did not spread to the lymph nodes and presumably not to any other organ. At this stage, the five year survival rate is about 80%. Seeing as it has been nearly twelve years since he was treated, there is a good chance the melanoma was cured.

There are hundreds and hundreds of types of cancer. Some are readily curable (e.g. basal cell carcinoma of the skin, for example).
