Abstract:
This chapter provides instructions for conducting the second session of meaning-centered group psychotherapy. The reader is instructed to reintroduce the basic concepts and sources of meaning from the first session, and to explore the topic of ‘Cancer and Meaning’ in light of the guiding theme ‘Identity before and after Cancer Diagnosis.’ By the end of Session 2, the facilitator will have ensured that group members have a general understanding of what their authentic sense of self is and the impact cancer has had on it.

Abstract:
This text outlines the empirical research, theoretical underpinnings, and clinical application of a novel supportive-expressive psychotherapy for patients with metastatic cancer and their caregivers. Managing Cancer and Living Meaningfully, known by its acronym of CALM, provides a framework for therapists with diverse backgrounds and training to help patients and their caregivers to address the practical and profound challenges of advanced cancer and to live their lives as meaningfully as possible. CALM provides reflective space for them to consider treatment decisions and communication with their health care providers, disruptions in identity, attachment security and the sense of meaning in their life, and to address fears, hopes, and concerns related to the end of life. Particular attention is paid in CALM to the regulation of affect, to the renegotiation of attachment relationships and to helping patients and their caregivers to sustain “double awareness” of the possibilities for living, while also managing their disease and planning for the end of life. Such an approach not only helps to prevent depression and death anxiety, but also helps to reclaim the loss of the imaginative possibilities for living in the context of all-consuming cancer care. The universal dimensions of advanced cancer and the semi-structured nature of CALM permit it to be delivered in the language and cultural idiom of cancer treatment settings in virtually all parts of the world. This text provides the most comprehensive and up-to-date description of the evidence base for CALM, its theoretical foundations and a manualized guide to its clinical application, filled with rich clinical illustrations.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter offers an approach to the clinical psychiatric assessment of the patient with cancer. A narrative medicine approach to history-taking is recommended, followed by assessments of mood, cognitive function, and risk. In the main body of the chapter the emphasis is on the assessment and medical investigation of psychopathology arising from the tumour or its treatment through direct biological mechanisms. Much of this material was presented in Chapters 4–9 but is organized here strictly by tumour type as a reference source for clinicians. The common psychological and psychosexual problems associated with particular cancers and their treatment are also briefly described, but much fuller accounts of adjustment and identity issues are available in more comprehensive psycho-oncology textbooks.

Abstract:
Breast cancer survivors face a number of unique psychosocial challenges following completion of treatment. In particular, having confronted their own mortality, the desire to live meaningful lives is often intensely heightened. However, a significant subset of survivors feel “stuck,” disconnected, and a decreased sense of meaning, identity, and purpose. Although breast cancer survivors have expressed that their greatest unmet need is support for existential issues, there is an absence of empirically supported interventions that focus on enhancing meaning. Meaning-centered group psychotherapy for breast cancer survivors (MCGP-BCS), which has been adapted from meaning-centered group psychotherapy for advanced cancer patients, addresses this need. This chapter describes the rationale for developing MCGP-BCS; presents a description of the intervention adaptation process; and provides an overview of the intervention, including presentation of excerpts from a sample group.

Abstract:
There is a lack of validated psychotherapeutic interventions for the adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer population, despite years of evidence of significant need. AYAs with cancer experience distress, anxiety, grief, life disruption, and loss of meaning. Meaning-making is a core developmental task of adolescence and contributes to identity development. This chapter reviews narrative and structural theories of identity development, viewed through the lens of a disruptive life event such as cancer. Clinical therapeutic issues are discussed, including the selection of AYA patients for participation in meaning-centered work, the therapeutic approach to difficult subjects such as prognosis or end of life, working with parents and caregivers, and dealing with grief and suicidality in a meaning-centered framework. Formal development of a manualized meaning-centered psychotherapy for AYAs is also discussed. A clinical vignette is presented to illustrate the main themes of a meaning-centered psychotherapeutic approach.

Abstract:
The immune response is a highly complex system that has developed to protect individuals from morbidity and mortality induced by exogenous exposures, including infections. As summarized in this chapter, alterations in the immune response, whether due to immunosuppressive or immune stimulatory effects, have important consequences with respect to cancer risk. Individuals with inherited immunological defects, acquired immunological deficiencies, chronic unresolved infections, and autoimmune conditions are at considerably increased risk for multiple cancers, suggesting an important role for the immune response in the development of cancer at various anatomical sites. Studies that have directly evaluated immunogenetic and immunological factors and cancer risk are beginning to identify specific immunological risk factors associated with individual cancers. Furthermore, technological advances have made it increasingly feasible to evaluate specific immunological factors and their relationship to cancer risk, suggesting that additional insights are likely in the coming years.

Abstract:
Lung and colorectal cancers account for high numbers of preventable deaths. Because of this, scaling up effective interventions to increase routine screening and lower tobacco use is critically important. Screening programs for these diseases vary greatly in their anticipated outcomes. Colorectal cancer screening can both prevent colorectal cancer and identify it in early, treatable stages. Screening for lung cancer, on the other hand, cannot prevent most lung cancer-related deaths, and up to 80% of deaths could be averted from smoking cessation. In this complicated environment for ongoing refinement of screening programs, the two case studies presented in this chapter showcase promising interventions for addressing the troubling high rates of mortality from lung and colorectal cancers. They underscore the value of designing experiments considering long-term implementation, aligning the intervention with existing clinic workflows and processes and incorporating end user feedback.

Abstract:
Current regulatory programs for drug safety are not designed to identify adverse events that have a long induction time or are rare, such as most cancers. Meta-analyses of randomized clinical trials of medications can sometimes provide information on shorter-term risk of common cancer types, though large observational studies with long follow-up are needed to examine most drug–cancer associations. Over the last few decades, a number of new methods have been developed to address several types of confounding and bias of particular concern in pharmacoepidemiology, and better data sources have become available. Of the approximately twenty medications with sufficient evidence to be classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as human carcinogens, most are anti-neoplastic agents or immunosuppressants. Substantial data from studies in humans indicate that use of aspirin and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) protects against colorectal cancer and possibly a number of other common cancers.
