Resumo: Introduction: Breast cancer stands out as the highest incident cancer in Brazil’s Southeastern region. Cancer patients in chemotherapy, the most common therapeutic modality for this disease, have several reactions and to minimize these effects, they seek for non-pharmacological strategies. Hope and religiosity are two coping strategies often utilized because they have been promoting positive and beneficial results for patients undergoing cancer treatment. Objective: To assess the levels of religiosity and hope and analyze the current relationships of women with breast cancer submitted to chemotherapy. Method: Quantitative research, with the application of a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Herth hope scale (HHS) and the Duke University religion index (DUREL). Results: 41 women participated of this study, with mean age of 53.61±11.8 years. The median score obtained in the HHS was 39 (±9) and the variation was from 32 to 48 points. The median score of organizational religiosity was 5 (±2) and the variation obtained was 1 to 6 points. The median intrinsic religiosity score was 15 (±1) and the variation obtained was 9 to 15 points. In the study sample, it is possible to identify high score and homogeneity of the responses. Conclusion: Hope and religiosity of patients with breast cancer did not show a positive correlation. However, high levels of hope and religiosity were found in the patients interviewed, which demonstrates the search for non-pharmacological therapies to cope with the disease.

En la quimioterapia, que es la modalidad terapéutica más utilizada para esta enfermedad, los pacientes con cáncer pueden presentar varias reacciones, por lo que en un intento por minimizar estos efectos, buscan estrategias no farmacológicas. Destacan dos estrategias de afrontamiento, la esperanza y la religiosidad, que han promovido resultados positivos y beneficiosos para los pacientes sometidos a tratamiento oncológico. Objetivo: Evaluar los niveles de religiosidad y esperanza y analizar las relaciones actuales, en mujeres con cáncer de mama sometidas a quimioterapia. Método: Investigación cuantitativa, con la aplicación de un cuestionario sociodemográfico, la escala de esperanza de Herth (HHS) y la escala de religiosidad de la Universidad Duke (DUREL). Resultados: En esta investigación participaron 41 mujeres, con una edad media de 53,61±11,8 años. La mediana de la puntuación obtenida en la EHSS fue de 39 (±9) y el rango fue de 32 a 48 puntos. La puntuación media de la Religiosidad Organizativa fue de 5 (±2) y la variación obtenida fue de 1 a 6 puntos. La puntuación media de la Religiosidad Intrínseca fue de 15 (±1) y la variación obtenida fue de 9 a 15 puntos. En la muestra de la investigación se puede identificar una alta puntuación y homogeneidad en las respuestas. Conclusión: La esperanza y la religiosidad de las pacientes con cáncer de mama no mostraron una correlación positiva entre ellas. Sin embargo, se encontraron altos niveles de esperanza y religiosidad en los pacientes entrevistados, lo que demuestra la búsqueda de terapias no farmacológicas para afrontar la enfermedad.Introdução: O câncer de mama tem-se destacado como a neoplasia de maior incidência na Região Sudeste do Brasil.
