Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cancer has been one of the leading causes of death in the world. Due to the advancement of early detection and development of new and more effective cancer treatments in the last few decades, the mortality from cancer has been decreasing steadily. As such, adverse events during cancer treatment have been increasingly recognized as an important consideration in improving patients’ long-term outcomes and quality of life. The adverse events during cancer treatment range from mild to severe or even life-threatening. This Special Issue will highlight various aspects of adverse events during cancer treatment, including, but not limited to, cardiotoxicity related to cancer medications or radiation therapy, immune-related adverse events during immunotherapy, and other relevant topics.
