Assessment of distress, quality of life and communication in cancer patients has equal importance to revealing the bio-psychosocial etiology and cancer risk, since it has been evidenced that quality of life is a significant prognostic factor of cancer progression and mortality, comparable with medical and treatment–related factors.

Assessment of distress, quality of life and communication in cancer patients has equal importance to revealing the bio-psychosocial etiology and cancer risk, since it has been evidenced that quality of life is a significant prognostic factor of cancer progression and mortality, comparable with medical and treatment–related factors. For example, in developed countries in the past 20 years, the high proportion of unmet, untreated psycho–social needs in cancer patients has not changed, except for significant progress in pain relief and alleviation of adverse reactions to oncologic treatments. In Romania, although almost 4.5 million individuals and their families are affected by cancer and incurable diseases only few receive integrated, medical, psychological and social care services. No statistics exist regarding the prevalence of pain and distress among patients with different types of cancer and only 5% of individuals with cancer have access to palliative care services. The over-arching goal of the study is to explore and examine cancer-related distress (depression and anxiety), communication, and quality of life aspects, with specifics of cancer diagnosis disclosure in Romania. The relevancy of our clinical research should be addressed and evaluated starting from the fact that in Romania, there are no previous scientific data about cancer diagnosis non-disclosure, cancer distress and cancer–related quality of life, based on comparative and multivariate statistical analyses.
