Blood cancer is a type of cancer that affects your blood cells. Leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma are some of the most common types of blood cancer. There are also types called MPNs and MDS. Blood cancer is caused by changes (mutations) in the DNA within blood cells.
Research breakthroughs over the last few decades mean that the five-year survival rates for chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML), chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) and follicular lymphoma are over 85%. But with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), mantle cell lymphoma and myeloma, the five-year survival rate is less than 50%.
Because treatments for blood cancer have vastly improved over the last several decades, many types of blood cancers are now highly treatable.
In the United States, overall, 5-year survival among people diagnosed with leukemia is 65%. However, these statistics vary greatly according to the specific subtype of disease: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) 5-year survival rate is 88%. Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) 5-year survival rate is 71.3%.
Stage 1 – A patient has high levels of white blood cells and enlarged lymph nodes. Stage 2 – A patient has high levels of white blood cells and is anemic. He or she may also have enlarged lymph nodes. Stage 3 – A patient has high levels of white blood cells and is anemic.
Lung and bronchus cancer is responsible for the most deaths with 125,070 people expected to die from this disease. That is nearly three times the 53,010 deaths due to colorectal cancer, which is the second most common cause of cancer death. Pancreatic cancer is the third deadliest cancer, causing 51,750 deaths.
Blood cancers are serious illnesses, but other cancer types are more deadly. Blood cancers represent about 10% of all cancers diagnosed in the United States each year, and an estimated 3% of all cancer-related deaths.
There isn't a cure for leukemia, but this doesn't mean some people don't achieve long-term remission. Being cured of leukemia means that the cancer's gone, it's not coming back and no more treatment is needed — but this is hard to know for sure with leukemia.
Usually, blood cancers stem from an excessive reproduction of white blood cells in the body's blood-forming tissues and organs. Blood cancer often begins in the bone marrow, where blood is produced, or in the lymphatic system, a major part of the body's immune system that manages fluid levels.
Can you live 20 years with ALL leukemia? It is possible for a person who achieves complete remission from ALL leukemia to live for 20 years. The Canadian Cancer Society notes that 40–50% of people with ALL achieve complete remission and do not relapse.
