Survivorship research in advanced gynecological cancer: A scoping review of cohort studies.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Recent calls to action highlight the need to address gaps in our understanding of survivorship for those living with advanced gynecological cancer to support optimal care. To ensure future research fills these knowledge gaps, we need to understand the breadth of existing survivorship research in this patient group, including the outcomes assessed, the populations included and the duration and retention in follow-up.

Methods

We conducted a systematic scoping review searching PubMed, PsychINFO, and CINAHL during the month of November 2022 to identify prospective cohort studies measuring survivorship outcomes among participants with advanced (stage III-IV) gynecological cancer, or in cohorts in which ≥50% of participants had advanced cancer, or which provide results
