abstract = {Survival in multiple myeloma (MM) has developed favorably
over the past decades for reasons that have been ascribed to
new medications and treatment. However, development of
survival over a long period and comparison to other
hematopoietic neoplasms (HN) is less well known. Here we
used Swedish cancer data from the Nordcan database, spanning
a 50-year period from 1967 to 2016, and analyzed 1- and
5-year survival data. As a novel type of analysis we
calculate the difference in survival between year 1 and 5
which indicates how well survival was maintained in the
4-year period following year 1 after diagnosis. The relative
1- and 5- year survival increased constantly; the 5-year
survival graph for women was almost linear. The difference
between 1- and 5-year survival revealed that the 5-year
survival gain was entirely due to the improvement in 1-year
survival, except for the last period. Survival improvement
in all HNs exceeded that in MM. The linear 5-year survival
increase for female MM patients suggests a contribution by
many small improvements in the first year care rather than
single major events. The future challenges are to push the
gains past year 1 and to extend them to old patients.},
