| Popis: | Background: The landscape of treatment options and associated prognosis for patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is rapidly evolving. In response to these advances in therapy, numerous organizations have invested considerable resources into developing evaluation frameworks seeking to clarify the value of new therapies. While some of these frameworks foster patient-provider shared decision making, others are more payer focused, and all are limited in their incorporation of patient perceptions of value and evidence on treatment aspects most meaningful to patients. Objectives: 1) To identify the attributes of treatment that patients with MBC value most, and 2) to explore the alignment between patient valuation of treatment attributes and healthcare provider perceptions of what patients value. METHODS: Four 90-minute focus groups were conducted: two with patients (aged Results: A total of 24 patients and providers (n=5 patients Conclusion: This analysis reveals that while patient and healthcare provider assessments of value in treating MBC are well-aligned with respect to clinical factors such as managing side effects and depth of treatment response; patients also prioritize emotional and psychological factors, -- like having hope and avoiding suffering -- in addition to clinical factors. Moving forward, patient-centered value frameworks for MBC will need to address this gap between what providers and payers value and patient goals and priorities.
