Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This is a qualitative study of local organizational and provider practice norms, and how these norms influence patient and family expectations and provider decision-making heuristics for minority patients with advanced cancer at major US cancer centers. Outpatient visits with oncologists will be observed and documented via hand-written field notes. Semi-structured interviews with selected participating clinicians, patients, caregivers, and other informants will follow the initial observation.
