Abstract Background In the year 2020, depression will cause the second highest amount of disability worldwide.

Integration of oncology and palliative care: a Lancet Oncology Commission.

2018

© 2018 Elsevier Ltd Full integration of oncology and palliative care relies on the specific knowledge and skills of two modes of care: the tumour-directed approach, the main focus of which is on treating the disease; and the host-directed approach, which focuses on the patient with the disease.

Randomised clinical trials on integration of oncology and palliative care point to health gains: improved survival and symptom control, less anxiety and depression, reduced use of futile chemotherapy at the end of life, improved family satisfaction and quality of life, and improved use of health-…

Investigator-initiated trials of targeted oncology agents: why independent research is at risk?

Design: An expert panel assembled by the Biotherapy Development Association-a nonprofit international forum for academic and indus…
