Introduction: Gastric Cancer ranks as the fourth most common cancer globally, with the second highest mortality rate. Given its significance, this study aims to ascertain and explore the 1-5-year survival rales of patients diagnosed with Gastric Cancer. Material & Methods: This descriptive analytical study examines data from patients diagnosed with Gastric Cancer in Sagheze city, Ku rd is Lan province, spanning from 2010 to 2018. Data from 236 patients with confirmed Gastric Cancer diagnoses, including demographic information, date of diagnosis, tumor morphology, tumor site, and tumor stage, were collected from the Cancer Registry Center at Kurdistan University of Medical Sciences and the Digestion and Liver Research Center at Tohid Hospital in Sanandaj. The data were then analyzed using SPSS 22 software, employing survival analysis based on the Kaplan-Meier method, Lhc Log-rank Lest statistic, and Cox regression. Results: Of the patients, 159 (67.4%) were male, with a mean age at diagnosis of68.46±15*50 years. Tumor morphology varied, with 132 (55.9%) categorized as unspecified neoplasms, 39 (16.5%) as invasive types, 35 (14.8%) as adenocarcinomas, 22 (9.3%) as intestinal types, and 8 (3.4%) as diffuse types. Gender (p=0.190), tumor site (p=0.084), and tumor stage (p=0.739) showed no significant relationship with the 1-5-year survival rate. However, age at diagnosis (p>0.001) and tumor morphology (p>0.001) were found to influence survival rates, which were estimated al 43%, 40%, 39%, 39%, and 36% for years I to 5, respectively. Conclusion: Age at diagnosis, tumor site, tumor morphology, tumor differentiation, and treatment type emerge as crucial factors influencing disease prognosis and patient survival.
