Abstract | Patient engagement in medical decision-making improves patient related outcomes through compliance and patient satisfaction. The Inova Schar Cancer Institute has a weekly molecular tumor board (MTB) to match comprehensive genomic sequencing results with targeted therapies for patients. Primary oncologists extended MTB invitations to their patients. Ultimately, 20 of the 139 patients attended and completed pre- and post MTB surveys. There was a statistically significant change from the pre- to post- survey for the question "I am satisfied with how well informed I am about targeted therapy" with P = 0.016. Patients who attended MTB reported higher levels of satisfaction with their knowledge of targeted therapy after MTB as compared to before. A more holistic method of studying this practice would include sampling a larger patient population and a formal evaluation of the physicians' experience with patients attending. |
