This info, poached from the sister forum, appears to be pretty consistent with numbers Bryan reported. All kinds of cancer - different 5-year survival rates, from 99% down to 8%. Overall, 67%.
"The 5-year survival rate for all cancers is 67% (https://ourworldindata.org/cancer-death-rates-are-falling-five-year-survival-rates-are-rising) although varying from a high of 99% (prostate) to a low of 8% (pancreas) That means that although 1.6 million people are diagnosed each year, many of those will live for additional years."
