Abstract
Personalized psycho-oncology represents a major challenge for the holistic care of cancer patients. It focuses on individualized psychotherapeutic and psychiatric interventions to address specific psychological needs. This narrative review summarizes the current literature on personalized psycho-oncology and highlights the prevalence and impact of psychiatric/psychological disorders in cancer patients. Personalized approaches, including tailored interventions and interdisciplinary collaboration, have been shown to be effective in improving mental health and overall quality of life. The integration of inflammatory biomarkers into treatment plans is a promising but challenging way to alleviate mental health problems. In addition, there is a need for specific diagnostic tools and treatment guidelines that take into account the specific psychological impact of different types of cancer. Future research should aim to refine these personalized strategies, improve diagnostic accuracy, and evaluate the cost-effectiveness of these interventions to improve both the psychological well-being and treatment outcomes of cancer patients.
