ASCO 2019 | More balanced information for patients with prostate cancer

Afaf Girgis, PhD, of the University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia, discusses a recent publication she was involved with that assessed the support needs of men with localized prostate cancer choosing to undergo either a robotic prostatectomy or radiotherapy. Prof. Girgis explained how it was found that more balanced information was needed to ensure patients could make the best decisions for them. This interview was recorded at the American Society of Oncology (ASCO) 2019 Annual Meeting, held in Chicago, IL.
