Cancer Survivorship Research

With continued advances in strategies to detect cancer early and treat it effectively along with the aging of the population, the number of individuals living years beyond a cancer diagnosis can be expected to continue to increase. Most therapeutic modalities for cancer, while beneficial and often lifesaving against the diagnosed malignancy, are associated with a spectrum of late complications ranging from minor and treatable to serious or, occasionally, potentially lethal. Investigators conducting research among cancer survivors are reporting that long-term or late adverse outcomes of cancer and its treatment are more prevalent, serious, and persistent than expected in survivors of both pediatric and adult cancer. However, these adverse sequelae remain poorly documented and understood, especially among those diagnosed as adults. These findings underscore the need for continued cancer survivorship research.
