Highlights from Facts 2019-2020. Prevalence is the estimated number of people alive on a certain date in a population who previously had a diagnosis of the disease.

The average person’s lifetime risk of getting ALL is about 1 in 1,000. The risk is slightly higher in males than in females, and higher in White people than in African Americans. Most cases of ALL occur in children, but most deaths from ALL (about 4 out of 5) occur in adults.
The overall five-year relative survival rate for leukemia is 66.7 percent, according to the National Cancer Institute SEER (Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results) Program. Five-year relative survival rates differ depending on the type of leukemia.
Using statistical models for analysis, age-adjusted rates for new leukemia cases have been falling on average 0.7% each year over 2012–2021. Age-adjusted death rates have been falling on average 1.9% each year over 2013–2022. 5-year relative survival trends are shown below.
The prognosis for acute myeloid leukemia varies depending on age, subtype, and response to treatment. The best survival is in patients under age 20, with a five-year survival rate of 68%. For people 20 and older, the five-year survival rate is 26%.
