How long advanced lung cancer can live depends on the following factors:

1. Lung cancer staging.

2. Types of lung cancer, such as small cell carcinoma and non-small cell carcinoma, have different responses to treatment.

3. The basic situation of patients, the survival rate of patients with good basic situation and poor basic situation is also different.

4, treatment plan, standardized treatment and non-standardized treatment have different outcomes, the treatment intensity is appropriate or not, and the survival time is also different. In short, the survival time of advanced lung cancer is generally not too long, and the probability of common advanced lung cancer surviving for five years does not exceed 10%, that is, 100 patients with advanced lung cancer can survive for five years, so the survival rate of lung cancer is not optimistic.

Matters needing attention in advanced stage of lung cancer

If the patient has bad symptoms of hemoptysis, he should stay in bed fully and stop bleeding actively at the same time. In addition, advanced lung cancer may induce adverse symptoms of liver pain, which is often unbearable and needs to be treated with some painkillers.

There is no cure for patients with advanced lung cancer, so it is meaningless to accept pathological biopsy at this time. This kind of examination will only make the patient more desperate, bring serious pain and suffering to the body and mind, and also lead to the weakness of the patient.
