One study found that depending on the stage of the metastases (spread) the average survival time following diagnosis of metastatic lung cancer ranged from 6.3 months to 11.4 months. There are a number of factors that can impact life expectancy with metastatic lung cancer. Factors associated with a less favorable outcome include:

Metastatic tumors in the lungs are cancers that developed at other places in the body (or other parts of the lungs). They then spread through the bloodstream or lymphatic system to the lungs. It is different than lung cancer that starts in the lungs. Nearly any cancer can spread to the lungs.
ICD-10-CM Code for Malignant (primary) neoplasm, unspecified C80. 1.
Cancer cells from a primary tumor may spread to other parts of the body and form new, or secondary, tumors. This is called metastasis. These secondary tumors are the same type of cancer as the primary tumor. Also called primary cancer.
C80. 1 - Malignant (primary) neoplasm, unspecified | ICD-10-CM.
Code C80. 1, Malignant (primary) neoplasm, unspecified, equates to Cancer, unspecified.
Cancer is considered historical when: • The cancer was successfully treated and the patient isn't receiving treatment. The cancer was excised or eradicated and there's no evidence of recurrence and further treatment isn't needed. The patient had cancer and is coming back for surveillance of recurrence.
According to the ICD-10 guidelines, (Section I.C. 2. m): When a primary malignancy has been excised but further treatment, such as additional surgery for the malignancy, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy is directed to that site, the primary malignancy code should be used until treatment is complete.

A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere.
Cancer that forms in tissues of the lung, usually in the cells lining air passages. The two main types are small cell lung cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. These types are diagnosed based on how the cells look under a microscope.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM C34.90 became effective on October 1, 2021.
A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM C78.00 became effective on October 1, 2021.
A tumor that has spread from its original (primary) site of growth to another site, close to or distant from the primary site. Metastasis is characteristic of advanced malignancies, but in rare instances can be seen in neoplasms lacking malignant morphology.
A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere.
All neoplasms are classified in this chapter, whether they are functionally active or not. An additional code from Chapter 4 may be used, to identify functional activity associated with any neoplasm. Morphology [Histology] Chapter 2 classifies neoplasms primarily by site (topography), with broad groupings for behavior, malignant, in situ, benign, ...

A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes. It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as C79.9. A type 1 excludes note is for used for when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.
