Would you like to see year-by-year survival rates for multiple myeloma?
Unfortunately, the available data doesn't break down survival rates by individual years. The statistics typically show five-year relative survival rates rather than year-by-year percentages.
Here's what is available:
Five-Year Survival Rates by Age:
- Under age 50: 92.7% for localized myeloma, 76.2% for distant spread
- Ages 50-64: 85.4% for localized myeloma, 68.7% for distant spread
- Age 65 and older: 69.2% for localized myeloma, 51.1% for distant spread
Overall Five-Year Rates:
- Localized myeloma: 79.5%
- Distant myeloma: 59%
- Stage 3 myeloma: 60.4%
- All stages combined: about 61%
It's important to remember that these rates are based on people diagnosed between 2013-2019, so they don't reflect the newest treatments approved in recent years. Survival rates have been improving steadily, especially since 2005 when new treatment options became available.
