Multimorbidity in patients living with and beyond cancer: protocol for a scoping review.

The scoping review will undertake secondary analysis of published literature; therefore, ethics committee approval is not required. Results will be disseminated through a peer-reviewed scientific journal and presented in relevant conferences. The scoping review will inform understanding of the burden of multimorbidity for cancer survivors, thus allow families, practitioners, clinicians and researchers to take the steps necessary to improve patient-centred care.
