Increasing Shared Decision Making and Patient Participation in Lung Cancer Clinical Trials (Free to Breathe)
This clinical trial studies how well the Decision Counseling Program works in increasing
patient-physician shared decision making and participation in clinical trials for lung cancer
patients. Decision aids help provide patients with information that may help them select a
course of action related to their cancer care when more than one alternative is available. It
also encourages shared decision making allowing patients and their providers to make health
decisions together. Determining how patients make decisions about participating in a clinical
trial may help doctors facilitate patient decision making and improve participation in lung
cancer clinical trials.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

the Decision Counseling Program (DCP).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Document the extent to which patient values and preferences are incorporated into
physician-patient shared decision making (SDM) about cancer clinical trials.
II. Assess changes in patient knowledge, anxiety, and decisional conflict related to clinical
