Fear of Cancer Recurrence or Progression: What Is It and What Can We Do About It?
Open accessAbstract
Patients with cancer face a trajectory marked by emotional and physical distress that can be associated with both diagnosis and treatment. Fear of cancer recurrence or progression has been considered one of the most common unmet needs reported by patients diagnosed with both localized and metastatic disease. Fear of cancer recurrence or progression has been defined as the "fear, worry, or concern relating to the possibility that cancer will come back or progress." Often overlooked by health care teams, fear of cancer recurrence or progression has been associated with impaired quality of life and psychosocial adjustment, elevated emotional distress, and a range of physical symptoms. Several interventions for fear of cancer recurrence or progression are currently under investigation. Early recognition, support, and validation of feelings associated with fear of cancer recurrence or progression, and appropriate referrals to psychosocial oncology, can be beneficial for many patients. Assessing patients early in their cancer trajectory, and at important milestones, including a change in therapies, at the end of active treatment, and during follow-up visits, can help identify individuals at risk and help individuals engage in supportive programs.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
