Abstract

Advances in cancer diagnosis, treatment, and supportive care have significantly increased survival rates across many cancer types. Consequently, the growing population of cancer survivors has shifted healthcare priorities beyond survival to encompass long-term quality of life (QoL). Cancer survivorship is often accompanied by physical, psychological, social, and financial challenges that persist long after treatment completion. These challenges may affect functional capacity, emotional well-being, interpersonal relationships, employment, and overall life satisfaction. This study examines the multidimensional aspects of quality of life among cancer survivors, identifies factors influencing survivorship outcomes, and explores interventions that promote well-being. Through a comprehensive review of current literature, survivorship models, and clinical evidence, the study highlights the importance of patient-centered care, psychosocial support, rehabilitation programs, lifestyle interventions, and digital health technologies. Findings indicate that improving quality of life requires multidisciplinary approaches addressing physical health, mental well-being, social integration, and long-term follow-up care. The paper concludes that survivorship care plans and personalized interventions are essential for optimizing health outcomes and enhancing quality of life among cancer survivors.
