Therapeutic strategies
View through CrossRef
A wide range of therapeutic strategies to manage cancer-related psychopathology are described. Evidence-based interventions include: surgery (e.g. oophorectomy for anti-NMDAR limbic encephalitis), radiotherapy, immunotherapy, anti-glucocorticoids, correction of electrolyte abnormalities, correction of vitamin or endocrine deficiencies, and the use of carefully selected antidepressant or antipsychotic medication. Particular attention is paid to the management of cancer-related delirium and mania, and to the depressive phenomena provoked by systemic cancer treatments. The quality of the evidence-base for these treatments is critically reviewed.
