First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether giving doctors and patients a report generated by artificial intelligence can improve how well risks and benefits of prostate cancer treatments are discussed. About 283 men with newly diagnosed prostate cancer and their doctors will be randomly assigned to receive either standard educational materials or the AI-generated feedback report after their consultation. The goal is to see if the feedback helps patients feel less conflicted and make choices that better match their values.
