Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung

Clinical decision-making in oncology is a complex process, with the primary goal of identifying the most effective treatment tailored to individual cancer patients. Many factors influence the treatment decision: disease- and patient-specific criteria, the increasingly complex treatment landscape, market authorization and drug availability, financial aspects, and personal treatment expertise. In the domain of genitourinary cancers, particularly prostate cancer, decision-making is challenging. Despite the prevalence of this malignancy, there are few in-depth explorations of these factors within real-world scenarios. Understanding and refining this intricate decision-making process is essential for future successful clinical decisions and the integration of computerized decision support into clinicians' workflows.
