Background: Cancer itself and its treatment process cause a range of physical and psychological discomforts to patients. Drawing therapy, as a form of complementary alternative medicine, has been proven to be effective in alleviating the physical and psychological discomforts of cancer patients, such as chemotherapy-associated nausea and vomiting, and negative emotions such as anxiety and depression.
Objective: This scoping review aims to organize and describe the literature on drawing therapy in cancer patients, including implementers, intervention methods, and effects.

Objective: The Worries About Recurrence or Progression Scale (WARPS) was recently validated in four common chronic illnesses other than cancer, after a rigorous development process based on the COSMIN criteria. Available measures of fear of progression or fear of cancer recurrence (FCR) have been criticised for not meeting all COSMIN criteria. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the psychometric properties of the WARPS in a cancer sample to assess its applicability to measure FCR.
