Brief Summary   The purpose of the study is to estimate the prevalence of depressive disorder in adult patients with advanced cancer referred to palliative care services, identify the severity of the depressive disorders and socio-demographi and clinical associated with depressive disorders in this group of patients.

We hypothesize that there will be a high rate of depressive disorder in adult patients with advanced cancer on palliative care and certain socio-demographic and clinical factors will affect the presence or absence and severity of depressive disorder in this group of patients.
