Summary

This study tests whether an extra meeting with a team of doctors, a palliative care specialist, and a psychologist can help patients with advanced cancer feel less torn about their next treatment. 62 adults with metastatic lung, breast, colon, ovarian, or prostate cancer who need a third round of therapy will be randomly assigned to standard care or the extra team talk. The goal is to see if this shared decision-making approach reduces decisional conflict and improves satisfaction.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Interdisciplinary shared decision-making consultation (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could help patients with advanced cancer feel more confident and less conflicted about their treatment choices.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 62 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention is behavioral, not a drug, so it won't change the disease itself.
