Each stage of cancer has a different survival rate, and stage 4 renal cancer survival rates are 23 percent—this number signifies the percentage of stage 4 cancer patients who will live for five years after diagnosis. However, this statistic is just a general guideline; many factors, including the patient’s age, general health, and tumor characteristics can affect their outlook. Your doctor will give you a better idea of stage 4 cancer survival rates as they apply to you or your loved one. Caring.com has a good story about survival rates.
