I had bone cancer in 2002. So far, so good. I had triple negative breast cancer in 1011. Still here.

In both cases I had very aggressive treatment.

Answer 2

It's presently not possible (theoretically or otherwise) to "cure" cancer. There are over 200 different forms of cancers, and it's not possible to "cure" them all. They can all be treated; but treatment isn't a "cure". 

If would be possible to "cure" cancer, if medical science and research could develop a vaccine that that would PREVENT cancer in the first place. But, that wouldn't be a "cure"; it would be a preventative.

Even if a cancer vaccine was developed and if you weren't vaccinated against cancer, you could still develop cancer - just as you can develop polio if you're not vaccinated again polio. 

Answer 3

It would be more accurate to say effectively tre a than cure.  Many cancers can be treated if caught early enough.

Answer 4

You can kill cancer cells & be in remission with treatment but there is no cure yet.

Answer 5

Steve Grohman claimed that cancer has been cured by hyperbaric chamber therapy.

Answer 6

No. Not for the next 500 years at least

Answer 7

While doctors and scientists hesitate to use the word 'cure' many cancers ARE curable if treated early or are of a particularly treatable type. 

(If you have a stage one breast lump removed, and 40 years later there is still no evidence of recurrence ... for all practical purposes you are cured.)

Answer 8

not right now but maybe in the future

Answer 9

not right now but maybe someday

Answer 10

Probably not if it's spread a lot.  But if caught early enough yes.
