Please note the life tables used in this analysis do not take into account differences in background mortality rates between geographies, and do not take into account changes to background mortality due to the coronavirus pandemic. This can affect the accuracy of the survival estimates. Also, the background mortality data includes cancer deaths. This is unlikely to skew our net survival figures for specific cancer sites, but it would likely have an effect on deaths from all cancers. For that reason, we have not included survival figures for all cancers combined. Please see the accompanying technical guide for more information.
For timeliness of data this publication is in excel format only. We apologise for this temporary inconvenience.
