Annual Statistical Report 2026 has just launched.
Cancer outcomes in Ireland show sustained improvement across three decades:
- More than 30 years of NCRI data show sustained improvements in cancer survival and reduced mortality
- Improvements reflect progress in earlier diagnosis, and significant advances in treatment
- Survival rates for some cancers can be as high as 95% five years after diagnosis
- Rising baseline numbers are mostly a factor of a growing and ageing population – not a significant increase in population risk
