Aims and scope

The Journal of Cancer Survivorship: Research and Practice publishes original research on cancer survivors, systematic, and meta-analytic literature reviews, clinical investigations and policy-related research that can impact the quality of care and quality of life of cancer survivors. The journal publishes peer reviewed papers related to improving the understanding, prevention, and management of multiple areas related to cancer survivorship that can affect quality care, symptom management, function, and well-being.

The number of cancer survivors continue to increase worldwide. This journal considers cancer survivors as individuals who were diagnosed with and treated for cancer (either living with or free of cancer), as well as those who after primary treatment continue to receive prolonged treatment. Studies can include adolescents or adults treated for cancer as children, as well as young adults, adults, or older adults. Research and practice involving all these types of cancer survivors is growing rapidly and dissemination of evidence-based information is essential for improved understanding and care.

  • Publishes basic research, epidemiological studies, clinical investigations, health services and policy-related research
  • Publishes systematic, meta-analytic and scoping reviews that adhere to the PRISMA reporting guidelines for systematic reviews/meta-analyses or the PRISMA extension for scoping reviews
  • Improves understanding of survivorship topics affecting quality of care, health, function, and well-being
  • Reflects growing interest consistent with increasing prevalence rates and future global impact


For authors: Checklists to improve communication of quantitative or qualitative scientific research
Many papers that are published in JCS tend to follow various STROBE checklists https://www.strobe-statement.org/checklists/ or  https://www.unisa.edu.au/contentassets/72bf75606a2b4abcaf7f17404af374ad/7c-10.1007_bf028206851.pdf or https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/articles/PMC1120242/ for quantitative studies. While JCS does not require that papers follow these various tools, authors may find these various checklists or guidelines  useful in preparing their papers. These tools can provide useful guideposts for the comprehensive communication of a research study.
