Challenges in shared decision making in advanced cancer care: a qualitative longitudinal observational and interview study

Abstract: BackgroundPatients' preferences and expectations should be taken into account in treatment decision making in the last phase of life. Shared decision making (SDM) is regarded as a way to give the patient a central role in decision making. Little is known about how SDM is used in clinical practice in advanced cancer care.ObjectiveTo examine whether and how the steps of SDM can be recognized in decision making about second‐ and third‐line chemotherapy.MethodsFourteen advanced cancer patients were followed over t… Show more

“…Recognition of individual patient priorities including both treatment characteristics and contextual considerations (e.g., efficacy, toxicities, impact of daily life, responsibilities) is essential for patients to garner the needed information from support sources and exert autonomy in the decision‐making process. The desire for decision engagement observed in this study is consistent with previous quantitative and qualitative studies outside MBC showing that patients desire involvement in decisions .…”

“…Patients in this analysis desired both substantial engagement in decision‐making and consideration of their unique preferences when deciding on a treatment course. This individualistic nature of decision‐making has been previously demonstrated in breast cancer, as well as in other advanced cancers . Recognition of individual patient priorities including both treatment characteristics and contextual considerations (e.g., efficacy, toxicities, impact of daily life, responsibilities) is essential for patients to garner the needed information from support sources and exert autonomy in the decision‐making process.…”

“…Results of a German qualitative interview study demonstrate that the involvement of patients in the decision-making process may even increase further during the course of their illness, due to increasing experience with the disease and treatment [28]. However, overall the involvement of patients in the decision-making process remains limited [29,30]. Some previous studies, assessing different pancreatic cancer populations (non-metastatic pancreatic cancer, stage I pancreatic adenocarcinoma and advanced pancreatic cancer), have also investigated reasons and predictors for withholding tumor targeting treatment.…”
