A simple answer to this question is YES.Yes, canceris curable for some.Unfortunately for some it has cost them life.More than 80% of cancers today are completely curable if treated early.People who have been successfully treated for cancer and it doesn't recur for a period of next the next five years the chances of it appearing are very rare.A patient should get himself examined half-yearly under all conditions.
For a cancer to be curable there are three factors.Type of cancer that a patient has,the stage of cancer and how well does the patient finally respond to the kind of treatment that is decided for him/her.A belief that vaccine can cure cancer is a myth.Vaccine can hel against a disease caused by a germ and since cancer is not caused by a germ,vaccine is not helpful.
If the disease in question is diagnosed early,there are more chances of a person's survival.If it's a tumor in breast or bowel there are more chances of a person's survival by way to operating and removing that part of the body.But if it's not tumor restricted to one place and has spread to other parts also then by way of chemotheraphy the cancer cells are destroyed.There are some types of cancers,which are curable even after they have spread like,Childhood Acute lmyphoid leukemia,(All types),Hodgkin's disease,Large cell lymphoma,APL Testicular cancer,Choriocarcinoma Cancer by itself is not one single disease.there are many,say more than a hundred differrent types of cancer and all of them have different type of cure.
