Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) survival rates vary significantly based on the stage of cancer. Here are the 5-year survival rates compared to people without the disease:

• Localized TNBC (confined to one small area): 91% survival rate
• TNBC that has grown into surrounding tissues: 66% survival rate
• Metastatic TNBC (spread beyond breast/chest): 12% survival rate It's important to note that these statistics are based on data from 2012-2018, and survival rates continue to improve as new treatments are developed. Several factors can influence individual outcomes, including:

• Age (particularly those over 65)
• Other health conditions
• Tumor grade
• Lymph node involvement
• Location of metastasis (if present)

Always discuss your individual situation with your healthcare team, as they can best evaluate your specific circumstances.
