Cancer survival is measured in many ways. One way is what kind of cancer you have, and doctors and specialists can sometimes base life expectancy from that. Also, cancer has stages (e.g. leukemia and breast cancer), and that can also help with the lifetime expectancy.
I'm pretty sure there are more ways than these, though.

Which breast cancer patients have the best chance for survival?
The breast cancer survival rate varies greatly on the patient and their response to treatment. Breast cancer survival rates for early detection are 100%. Stage 2 breast cancer has a survival rate of 93 percent, the stage 3 survival rate is 72 percent, and the stage 4 survival rate is 22 percent.
What is a typical 5-year survival rate if you are diagnosed with colon cancer?

What is the best cancer?
Thyroid cancer is the least deadly, with a 95% survival rate
Why is pancreatic cancer the worst cancer?
While relatively rare, once diagnosed, pancreatic cancer has just a 5% 5 year survival rate, which is the lowest survival rate of cancer at any site location (lung cancer is next at 15%).
What are the survival rates for thyroid cancer?
Thyroid cancer is generally associated with very high survival rates. The prognosis for thyroid cancer is often favorable, with the majority of patients surviving the disease. Survival rates can vary depending on the specific type and stage of thyroid cancer. Here are some general survival rate statistics: Papillary Thyroid Cancer: Papillary thyroid cancer, the most common type, has a high survival rate. The 5-year relative survival rate for localized papillary thyroid cancer is approximately 99%, meaning that almost all patients with localized disease are alive 5 years after diagnosis. Even for regional (spread to nearby lymph nodes) or distant (metastatic) disease, the 5-year survival rate remains relatively high at around 93%. Follicular Thyroid Cancer: Follicular thyroid cancer also has favorable survival rates. The 5-year relative survival rate for localized disease is approximately 97%. For regional disease, it's about 86%, and for distant disease, it's around 67%. Medullary Thyroid Cancer: Medullary thyroid cancer has slightly lower survival rates compared to papillary and follicular types. For localized disease, the 5-year relative survival rate is around 98%. For regional disease, it's about 89%, and for distant disease, it drops to approximately 41%. Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer: Anaplastic thyroid cancer is the most aggressive form of thyroid cancer, and survival rates are much lower. The 5-year relative survival rate for this type is generally less than 10%, and many cases are fatal.
What are the recovery rates and treatments for ovarian cancer?
Ovarian cancer can be treated with rounds of chemotherapy. The earlier the treatment, the greater the chance of survival. Stage 1 of the cancer has a 90 percent survival rate, while stage 4 only has a survival rate of 10 percent.
Is race a factor in cancer?
