dc.description.abstractThe increasing number of cancer survivors due to advancements in early detection and treatment has shifted the focus of oncology to the long-term health and well-being of these individuals. Cancer survivorship encompasses a wide range of challenges that extend beyond the completion of treatment, including physical, psychological, social, and economic issues. This review explores the long-term physical health consequences of cancer treatment, such as neuropathy, cardiotoxicity, and chronic conditions, and highlights the psychological burdens, including anxiety, depression, and cognitive impairment, commonly faced by survivors. The article also addresses the social and economic impacts, such as difficulties in returning to work and financial toxicity, which further complicate the survivorship experience. Additionally, the review emphasizes the importance of assessing and improving the quality of life (QoL) for survivors through personalized interventions and the implementation of survivorship care plans (SCPs). Emerging research on biomarkers, telemedicine, and policy advocacy is discussed as critical components for advancing survivorship care. The review concludes that a comprehensive approach, including ongoing research, personalized care, and supportive policies, is essential to meet the diverse needs of cancer survivors and improve their long-term outcomes and QoL.en_US
