Yep. Even with "old drugs" the new programs using those give significantly better chances than with the old programs. Year of data collecting sure have given results.

I had testicular cancer in 2006 in Chile. I was a teenager so I went with the public system (AUGE back then). My parents friends were giving the condolences for my soon to occur death. The doctors had a laugh as in the last 10 years (by then) my chances of dying of it became basically nil.

Last year we hired a new guy at $JOB that 1 week after being hired was diagnosed with testicular cancer too. He really thought he was gonna die. He was at stage 4 (which is a highly zone specific metric). Last time I saw him he is still coding and more bald. It was more difficult to sort payments than the treatment as he is in the US.
