Factors Associated With Health-Related Quality of Life Among Cancer Survivors in the United States

Abstract

Cancer survivors in the United States have generally good HRQOL, with similar physical and mental health scores to the general US population. However, comorbidities, poor health behaviors, and recent treatment may be risk factors for worse HRQOL. Multimorbidity management and healthy behavior promotion may play a key role in maximizing HRQOL for cancer survivors.
