What is the survival rate for clear cell renal cell carcinoma?

As many as 7 in 10 people with small ccRCC tumors are alive five years after the initial diagnosis. Treatment is less effective on large tumors or metastatic cancer. In those cases, five-year survival rates may drop to about 1 in 10. A cancer prognosis depends on many factors, including:

  • Cancer spread.
  • Effectiveness of treatments.
  • Location, size and number of tumors (cancer stage).
