A systematic review and meta-analysis of psychosocial interventions for immigrant and limited English proficient cancer patients.

The interventions under review had small but beneficial effects on psychosocial outcomes for immigrant and LEP cancer patients. Notably, effect sizes were smaller than those found in previous meta-analyses of psychosocial interventions conducted in majority U.S.-born, non-Hispanic White, English-speaking cancer patient samples. More research is needed to identify key components and adaptations of interventions that benefit immigrant and LEP cancer patients to strengthen their effects for this growing yet underserved population.
