Methods: A cross-sectional design was used with 1862 cancer survivors aged 18\u201392 years who had completed primary treatment with curative intent and were disease-free. Participants responded to the Cancer Survivors\u2019 Unmet Needs (CaSUN) questionnaire. Descriptive and multivariate analyses explored SCNs in the total sample and subgroups, as well as differences according to sociodemographic and cancer-related variables. Results: At least 20% of participants reported 18 needs out of a total of 35 identified by the CaSUN questionnaire. One-third to half reported needs in the comprehensive care and information domain. Risk factors for reporting more needs included younger age; female sex; not having a partner; being on sick leave or unemployed; having a diagnosis of haematological, breast or gynaecological cancer; receiving systemic treatment (chemotherapy and\/or hormone therapy); and being at an earlier stage of survival. Conclusions: The study highlights significant unmet care needs among cancer survivors in Spain and the urgency of improving management of the physical and psychosocial effects of cancer and its treatment. Special attention should be given to those at greatest risk through personalised and comprehensive care strategies integrated into survivorship programs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/curroncol32090524","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,19]],"date-time":"2025-09-19T10:08:58Z","timestamp":1758276538000},"page":"524","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Unmet Supportive Care Needs in Cancer Survivors in Spain: A Multicentre Cross-Sectional Study on Prevalence and Sociodemographic and Disease-Related Risk Factors"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"Yolanda","family":"Andreu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Personality, Assessment and Psychological Treatments, Faculty of Psychology and Speech Therapy, University of Valencia, 46010 Valencia, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Beatriz","family":"Gil-Juli\u00e1","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Personality, Assessment and Psychological Treatments, Faculty of Psychology and Speech Therapy, University of Valencia, 46010 Valencia, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9537-3181","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carmen","family":"Picazo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology and Sociology, Faculty of Social and Human Sciences of Teruel, University of Zaragoza, 44003 Teruel, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ana","family":"Garc\u00eda-Conde","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Fundaci\u00f3n Instituto Valenciano de Oncolog\u00eda, 46009 Valencia, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2036-2039","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ana","family":"Soto-Rubio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Developmental and Education Psychology, Faculty of Psychology and Speech Therapy, University of Valencia, 46020 Valencia, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"120","article-title":"Cancer statistics for American Indian and Alaska Native individuals, 2022: Including increasing disparities in early onset colorectal cancer","volume":"73","author":"Kratzer","year":"2023","journal-title":"CA Cancer J.
