PURPOSE: The growing population of breast cancer survivors (BCS) underscores the need to address ongoing challenges that persist beyond active treatment. This scoping review aimed to systematically map the unmet needs of BCS and inform the development of an evidence-based survivorship care framework.
METHODS: A systematic search of databases identified 13,401 studies, of which 170 met the inclusion criteria. Data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis and descriptive statistics to categorize unmet needs across studies.
RESULTS: Six major categories of unmet needs were identified: physical symptom burden, psychosocial/emotional needs, informational needs, healthcare support needs, relational/sexual needs, and financial/occupational needs. Physical symptoms (33.5% of studies) and psychosocial/emotional concerns (32.4%) were most frequently reported. Based on these domains, a three-phase conceptual framework was developed: (1) universal needs screening, (2) targeted, multidisciplinary interventions tailored to individual survivors, and (3) ongoing evaluation through patient-reported outcomes to optimize care.
CONCLUSIONS: Unmet needs among BCS are widespread and multifaceted, particularly regarding chronic physical symptoms and persistent psychosocial distress. Existing care frameworks are fragmented and insufficient. The proposed three-phase framework provides a structured approach to delivering proactive, patient-centred survivorship care.
IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS: Implementing this framework can improve identification and management of unmet needs, enhance quality of life, support long-term physical and emotional recovery, and foster resilience throughout survivorship.
