To document levels of labor force participation, occupation, educational attainment, and financial toxicity following cancer treatment in YA cancer survivors aged 25-34 years.

This observational, cross-sectional study will recruit 220 analyzable YA survivors through the Wake Forest National Cancer Institute Community Oncology Research Program (NCORP) Research Base (WF NCORP RB). Data will be collected using a web-based interface and will capture physical, psychosocial and cognitive late effects; work ability; work-related outcomes, including labor force participation, occupation, work place characteristics, and educational attainment; survivor characteristics; and cancer diagnosis/treatment information (from clinical records). We will evaluate the relationships among these measures using the theoretical framework to guide statistical analysis.

Inclusion Criteria:

• >= 2 to < 10 years post-cancer diagnosis (per diagnostic pathology report)
• Diagnosed with first cancer (any type except types listed in exclusion criteria below) at age >= 15 years
• Ability to understand and willingness to sign a written informed consent document
• Must be able to read and understand English

Exclusion Criteria:

• Currently receiving active cancer treatment (acceptable to be on maintenance or hormonal therapies)
• Life expectancy less than 6 months
• Precancerous or pre invasive conditions (myelodysplastic syndrome; carcinoma in situ; non-melanoma skin cancer) without progression to malignancy without another prior primary cancer diagnosis; (those who have had these conditions may participate IF they have a primary cancer diagnosis)
• Non-Hispanic Whites (effective 11/01/2018)

Community Sample

Wake Forest NCORP Research Base is committed to following the NIH Statement on Sharing Research Data (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-03-032.html). As of July 2018, the WF NCORP RB signed an agreement with NCI to contribute de-identified data and data dictionaries from clinical trials conducted through our RB to the NCI NCTN/NCORP data archive within 6 months of primary and non-primary publications of phase II/III and phase III trials to https://nctn-data-archive.nci.nih.gov/. This will become the primary means for sharing raw data, and we will adhere to the guidelines spelled out in the NCTN/NCORP Data Archive Usage Guide. De-identified data from studies not covered by the agreement (e.g., phase II and observational studies) will be made available upon request. All data files will be de-identified. De-identification procedures will meet the HIPAA criteria as detailed in the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 45, Section 164.514.

6 months after publication for a 2 year duration.
