Mesothelioma Survival Statistics

GITNUXREPORT 2026

Mesothelioma Survival Statistics

See how multimodality decisions change the odds with benchmarks like 23.0 months median overall survival in the MAPS2 surgery inclusive pathway, versus about 12 months for typical real world malignant pleural mesothelioma and 7.7 months for non surgical patients. You will also find survival linked details such as 19 months with EPP plus chemotherapy, platinum chemotherapy plan duration and maintenance timing, and immunotherapy disease control signals like the higher complete or partial response and stable disease rate in CheckMate 743 that help explain why some patients last far beyond the median.

Survival with mesothelioma can look very different depending on where the disease starts and how completely treatment is delivered, from about 12 months for peritoneal mesothelioma to 23.0 months in MAPS2 when surgery is part of multimodality care. Even within the same broad category, the gap can be striking, with CheckMate 743 reporting 18.1 months median overall survival on nivolumab plus ipilimumab versus lower benchmarks in other real world groups. This post breaks down the most telling survival statistics so you can see which factors likely move outcomes and which ones mostly reflect typical prognosis.
