RESUMEN
Millions of individuals worldwide are living with cancer and have remained disease-free for more than 5 years. These individuals are considered to be cancer survivors. The advent of new targeted therapies and personalized treatment modalities have contributed to this increased survivorship. Additionally, earlier diagnosis and detection of cancer, greater access to preventive screenings, and greater focus on cancer pharmaceutical safety have all been contributed to increasing longevity. Of note, all cancer types have benefited in the survivorship arena. The advent of expansive survivorship care planning mandated by national governmental agencies and the emergence of newer classes of drug therapies for cancer are expected to buttress and support cancer survivorship in the coming decades.
