The 6 most deadly cancers which kill 60% in a year – and the first symptoms to look out for

SHOCKING figures lay bare how almost 60 per cent of people diagnosed with the six least survivable cancers die from their disease within a year.

Over 90,000 people in the UK are diagnosed with one of these deadly cancers every year.

But cancer registry data from England shows that just 42 per cent of patients will live more than a year after diagnosis.

By contrast, the overall one-year survival rate for all cancers is 70 per cent.
