Original Research

Researchers who evaluated the versatility and efficacy of the National Oncology Navigation Acuity Tool share their findings and suggest that the tool could become an essential asset in streamlining oncology care and maximizing the effectiveness of patient navigation services.

Oncology nurse navigator involvement in the management of patients receiving oral oncolytic therapy can increase the quality of patient care by advancing patient understanding of their medication, limiting side effects, and improving adherence.

Researchers provide insights into the mechanism and treatment landscape of 2 of the 4 primary leukemia subtypes, acute lymphoblastic leukemia and acute myelogenous leukemia.

Researchers share findings from a study on the creation and early use of the Zone Tool for Oncology, a geriatric-friendly, single-page, color-coded symptom self-assessment tool for patients undergoing anticancer treatment.

Findings from a cross-sectional study of patient navigators, pathologists, and clinicians suggest a need for further interventions and education to support clinicians and navigators disseminating precision oncology.

Breast cancer nurse navigation was created to guide patients through challenges and foster relationships between patients and providers. However, these navigators face significant challenges to providing highquality care in health systems that are siloed and have a mix of private and employed medical staff.

By learning more about the social experiences of people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, with respect to diagnosis disclosure, cancer navigators, nurses, oncologists, and mental health professionals will be better equipped to support the psychosocial needs of patients and their families.
