Efficient development and usability testing of decision support interventions for older women with breast cancer

Abstract: BackgroundAround one-third of breast cancers diagnosed every year in the UK are in women aged ≥70 years. However, there are currently no decision support interventions (DESIs) for older women who have a choice between primary endocrine therapy and surgery followed by adjuvant endocrine therapy (surgery+endocrine therapy), or who can choose whether or not to have chemotherapy following surgery. There is also little evidence-based guidance specifically on the management of these older patients. A large UK cohort… Show more

“…The prognostic model is part of a decision support intervention (DESI) including an online tool (https://agegap .shef.ac.uk/) with two other patient-facing decision aids 24 , tailored to the information needs and preferences of older women 25,26 in decision-making between surgery and primary endocrine therapy. This DESI has been developed for women whose choice between surgery and primary endocrine therapy is not clear cut.…”

“…Shared decision-making suggests that patients should be informed of their treatment options [ 17 ] and for some older women it may be appropriate to offer PET as an alternative to ‘standard’ surgical treatment and allow the patient to decide what is best for them. Previous work by our group supports an individualised approach to treatment decision-making in this group [ 55 ] and consequently, we have recently developed, validated and trialled a decision aid to support decision making for older women facing the choice of surgery or PET [ [56] , [57] , [58] , [59] ]. This tool is available on line at https://agegap.shef.ac.uk/ .…”
