Abstract

Maintaining or improving the health-related quality of life (QoL) of lung cancer patients is essential throughout treatment. To support shared decision-making and improve patient–physician communication, patients’ preferences should be understood and considered in clinical decision-making; however, existing research indicates notable discrepancies between patient and physician priorities. This study therefore aims to elicit and compare their preferences regarding QoL dimensions in lung cancer care in Germany.
