Although there can be an onset during the 20’s. Most lung cancer develops when people are in their 50’s and beyond and most are related to smoking, though non-smokers can get it too. It is one of the most deadly forms of cancer. If discovered at stage IV which is not uncommon the likelihood of living more than five years is about than 1 in 10.
