This study aims to construct life tables for true data of breast cancer
patients treated with chemotherapy in Nineveh Governorate for the
period 2006 to 2010 for both sexes and for different disease's stages.
Patient's life table, the probability of survival starting from the beginning
of treatment and the most important factors for treatment and follow-up
of such patients were assessed. The results show that by using life tables
technique, the probability of survival the patients treated with
chemotherapy for five years since enrolled treatment decrease with
advance of stages from 85.8% for stage I to 43.5% for stage IV, that
indicate the importance of starting therapy during the earlier stage of the
disease
