I don't get why cancer is so hard to beat. I'm already on stage 4.

    Explanation

    The joke plays on the dual meaning of 'stage'. The person is talking about the stage of cancer, but also implying they are on a literal stage, as in a performance. It's funny because it uses a very serious illness in a lighthearted, ironic way.
