However, the rate can vary depending on various factors, especially the stage of the disease, with a 5-year survival rate of 90% in people with early-stage colorectal cancer compared with approximately 10% once metastases occur. This means that colorectal cancer detected early is potentially curable in 9 out of 10 patients2.
