A research brief from the Innovation and Value Initiative (IVI) sought to determine how metastatic non-small lung cancer (NSCLC) patients’ perspectives and experiences shape cancer-related treatment decisions. IVI constructed in-depth interviews and focus groups with patients with metastatic NSCLC to gain insight into their perspectives on disease burden and treatment.
