Considering patient preferences, goals, and values is of increasing importance in lung
cancer because the complexity of the treatment landscape is growing, resulting in more
options and the need for more individualized approaches to treatment selection, and
planning that, in addition to considering the evidence and best practice
recommendations, should take into account the needs and preferences of patients with
lung cancer and their caregivers
Shared decision-making (SDM)—a process of two-way communication during which
clinicians and patients work together to make treatment and other care-related
decisions—has been found to provide many important benefits to patients, clinicians,
healthcare systems, and society as a whole
Providers share key disease state and
treatment-related information
Patients communicate values, risk
attitudes, and treatment goals
High quality information and resources are essential in supporting shared
decision-making in lung cancer!
