Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to contribute to this Special Issue on cancer-therapy-related adverse events in different organ systems. With new cancer treatment strategies emerging rapidly, we recognize the limitations and the need for expanding upon our knowledge of toxicity management. These hurdles frequently disrupt cancer treatments and compromise patients’ outcomes. There is a critical knowledge gap in current clinical practices that needs to be bridged by research data to help practitioners and patients improve their quality of care and outcome.
This Special Issue aims to cover the various organ toxicities related to cancer therapies in the current era. This Special Issue will help to facilitate optimization in the clinical management of cancer care and to reduce symptom burden due to adverse events for cancer populations.
Original research articles and reviews are welcome in this Special Issue. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) cancer-therapy-related adverse events in different organs from one or more of the following categories.
- Toxicity topic
- Cardiology
- Dermatology
- Endocrinology
- Gastroenterology
- Hematology
- Hepatology
- Nephrology
- Neurology
