If you've been diagnosed with lung cancer, you've done some online research, then one of your next questions is likely: "What are lung cancer remission rates?"

The answer depends on several factors: the type of lung cancer you have, the stage at diagnosis, whether your tumour carries specific genetic mutations, and which treatment options are available to you. Modern lung cancer treatment has changed dramatically in recent years. Targeted therapies, immunotherapy, and advanced radiation therapy techniques like SABR are achieving lung cancer remission rates that would have seemed impossible a decade ago.

This page explains lung cancer remission rates by stage and type, how genetic mutations influence your prognosis, and which treatment approaches offer the best chance of long-term control. Whether you're a lung cancer patient researching options for yourself, or someone seeking cancer information for a person you care about, you'll find the clinical data and treatment pathways that matter most.
