Do not go by survival rates or statistics. They can be used as an overall tool, but you can not apply them to an individual. It just doesn't work that way.
Much depends upon an individuals overall health, age, the stage of the cancer, and the grade of the tumor. Much may also depend upon the skills of the oncologist, the ability of the patient to locate effective treatment options, and on lucky circumstances.
You can find survivors for all cancers, all stages, and all tumor grades . . people can beat the odds of their particular cancers.
That being said, you can find this type of information at the National Cancer Institute website. There is good information there about treatment options, diagnostics, and statistics:

Depends how early you catch it. I've known 4 friends and friend of friends to have a form of that cancer and it was very quickly spreading overall.

5-year survival: ~76%
This compares to 5-16% for lung cancer.

It depends on which cancer you are referring to. Stage is determined by the extent of the disease, not how long you have it.
