摘要

Evidence suggests that cancer-related accelerated aging contributes to an earlier onset of chronic diseases; persistent symptoms; and decrements in patients’ quality of life. This review presents the Multifactorial Model of Cancer-related Accelerated Aging (MMCRAA), a conceptual framework that is grounded in Life Course Theory and supported by empiric evidence. The model includes six inter-related concepts: person, behavioral, biological, treatment, symptom, and life course factors. The MMCRAA can be used by clinicians and researchers to identify patients at increased risk for cancer-related accelerated aging; guide personalized treatment planning; and inform the development of interventions and research.
