Question: what is the survival rate for multiple myeloma without treatment?
Answer: It is estimated that 12,830 deaths (7,190 men and 5,640 women) from this disease will occur this year. The 5-year survival rate tells you what percent of people live at least 5 years after the cancer is found. Percent means how many out of 100. The overall 5-year survival rate for people with multiple myeloma is 54%.
