Abstract
Cancer is a worldwide public health priority with a high socioeconomic burden. Unfortunately, cancer treatments often lead to side effects and impairments, greatly feared by patients and clinicians, which need to be identified, properly managed, and prevented. However, this is often not achieved, thus reducing the patient's quality of life (QoL) and survivorship. As a follow-up to our previous Frontiers Research Topic (FRT)
