Despite a rapidly growing research interest in fear of cancer recurrence, lack of consensus on definition and measurement including clinical fear of cancer recurrence, sparse model development and testing, and limited available clinical interventions have impeded knowledge transfer into patient services. To move forward, a 2-day colloquium was held in Ottawa, Canada in August 2015 to progress knowledge and identify future research directions. A comprehensive research program was proposed, including development of a clinical definition, an updated review of screening measures, and a review of existing interventions. A new special interest group was created with the International Psychosocial Oncology Society to facilitate the implementation of this research program and future international collaborations.

尽管对癌症复发恐惧的研究兴趣迅速增长,但在定义和测量方面缺乏共识,包括临床对癌症复发的恐惧、模型开发和测试稀少,以及可用的临床干预措施有限,这些都阻碍了知识向患者服务的转化。为了取得进展,2015年8月在加拿大渥太华举行了为期两天的学术研讨会,以推进相关知识并确定未来的研究方向。会上提出了一项全面的研究计划,包括制定临床定义、更新筛查措施综述以及审查现有干预措施。国际心理社会肿瘤学会成立了一个新的特别兴趣小组,以促进该研究计划的实施和未来的国际合作。版权所有© 2016约翰·威利父子有限公司。
