Pancreatic Cancer Survival Rate Low in India

Pancreatic cancer is a very serious and fast-spreading disease.

In India, only 3% of people survive for five years after being diagnosed with it.

This is much lower than other cancers like breast or lung cancer.

The main problem is that people usually find out they have pancreatic cancer very late, when it's hard to treat.

Doctors say that more people need to know about the early signs, like stomach pain, weight loss, and jaundice.

They also say that the government and researchers need to pay more attention to this cancer.

There are not many new treatments, and the ones that exist, like chemotherapy, don't work very well.

Doctors believe that if more people know the signs and if there's more research, more people can survive this cancer.
