The gold standard for tumor-associated chronic pain is multimodal therapy. Non-adherence causes high costs and may put patients at risk. The aim of this study was to investigate the adherence behavior and subjective treatment compliance of patients with tumor-associated chronic pain. The focus was on the patients' perspective. Different groups of medications, such as NOPA, opioids, co-analgesics and cannabinoids, as well as non-drug treatments were included.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Semistructured guided interviews with 10 patients with chronic tumor pain were conducted within a qualitative research approach.

Other main categories were \"History of illness\", \"Relationship with treatment providers\" and \"Attitudes and beliefs\". A total of 77 additional subcategories were formed and interpreted. Adherence behavior from the patients' perspective differed between the different medication groups. A palliative setting influenced treatment decisions and adherence. The medication regimens used were complex and dynamic, especially when there were multiple practitioners involved. Furthermore, there was ambiguity in the use of cannabinoids.

Adherence factors known from previous research were reflected in the subjective perception of the group of patients with chronic pain after tumor diseases.
