Patient, Caregiver, and Clinician Perspectives on the Time Burdens of Cancer Care.

Importance: Cancer and its care impose significant time commitments on patients and care partners. The oncology community has only recently conceptualized these commitments and the associated burden as the "time toxicity" of cancer care. As the concept gains traction, there is a critical need to fundamentally understand the perspectives of multiple stakeholders on the time burdens of cancer care.

Addressing social needs in oncology practices: A case study of a patient-centered approach using health information technology.

Given the dramatic growth in the financial burden of cancer care over the past decades, individuals with cancer are increasingly susceptible to developing social needs (e.g., housing instability and food insecurity) and experiencing an adverse impact of these needs on care management and health outcomes.

Cardio-Oncology and Heart Failure: a Scientific Statement From the Heart Failure Society of America.

Heart failure and cancer remain 2 of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality, and the 2 disease entities are linked in a complex manner. Patients with cancer are at increased risk of cardiovascular complications related to the cancer therapies. The presence of cardiomyopathy or heart failure in a patient with new cancer diagnosis portends a high risk for adverse oncology and cardiovascular outcomes.

Frailty and pre-frailty associated with long-term diminished physical performance and quality of life in breast cancer and hematopoietic cell transplant survivors.

Physical frailty as a sign of accelerated aging is not well characterized in breast cancer (BC) and hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) survivors and its correlation with outcomes and quality of life (QOL) is not defined. We conducted a prospective study to determine the prevalence of frailty in adult BC and HCT survivors, examine its impact on QOL, and determine its association with , a molecular biomarker for biological aging. The study included 59 BC and 65 HCT survivors.
