The type of cancer that spreads the fastest is known as "small cell lung cancer" (SCLC). SCLC is an aggressive form of lung cancer that tends to grow and spread rapidly. It accounts for about 10-15% of all lung cancer cases. Small cell lung cancer has a high tendency to metastasize, meaning it can quickly spread to other parts of the body, such as the liver, brain, bones, and adrenal glands. By the time SCLC is diagnosed, it often has already spread beyond the lungs to distant sites. Due to its aggressive nature and tendency to metastasize early, small-cell lung cancer is usually treated with a combination of chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Despite these treatments, the overall prognosis for small cell lung cancer is often less favorable compared to other types of lung cancer, emphasizing the importance of early detection and treatment.
