I know about oral SCC in cats and they are extremely aggressive, untreatable cancers: death can occur within weeks of diagnosis - are they as fast for humans?

This is a tricky question as the prognosis will depend on where it arise if a source can be located, the nature of SCC (keratinizing vs non-keratinizing), and how early was it detected. Generally, yeah it's bad and aggressive but the stuff that makes it better are factors mentioned above.
On cervical SCC, HPV dependent has a better response to chemo than HPV independent SCC as an example.
