Disease-modifying therapies in advanced cancer
Keyword(s):
In many situations, anti-cancer therapies may be critical components of a palliative care plan to optimize patient comfort, function, quality of life, and duration of survival. Optimal care often requires the integration of oncological and palliative care and it is important for palliative care clinicians to be familiar with oncological approaches to improve patient well-being, and also the limitations of such approaches. This integrative role requires that palliative care clinicians have a basic literacy regarding anti-cancer therapies and that they be familiar with information resources to update them on new and developing therapeutic options which may be of benefit to their patients.
