Video

The panelist discusses how, when discussing first-line treatment decisions for cancer patients, healthcare professionals primarily consider patient-specific factors like disease stage, molecular profile, comorbidities, and performance status. When discussing options with high-risk patients, healthcare professionals typically take a shared decision-making approach, thoroughly explaining both potential benefits and side effect management strategies. These conversations weigh factors like quality-of-life impact, monitoring requirements, and individual patient preferences to arrive at an optimal treatment strategy.
