This $1,073,982 National Cancer Institute project grant will fund research at Washington University in University City, Missouri from January 2023 through December 2027 under the Cancer Cause and Prevention Research program (CFDA 93.393). The research aims to document unmet social needs among 300 patient-caregiver dyads where the patient has breast or gynecologic cancer. It will analyze how social needs affect biopsychosocial outcomes for patients and caregivers, including depressive symptoms, quality of life, emergency department visits, and treatment adherence. Semi-structured interviews with 60 participants will explore experiences with unmet social needs and preferences for intervention. The relationship between neighborhood deprivation, social needs, and depressive symptoms will also be assessed. Findings seek to provide the first comprehensive analysis of how unmet social needs impact female cancer patients and their caregivers. The goal is to develop targeted screening and interventions to address mental health and social service needs, thereby improving outcomes.
