Incorporating financial toxicity considerations into clinical trial design to facilitate patient‐centered decision‐making in oncology

PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY: Financial toxicity is increasingly being recognized as an important and devastating consequence of cancer treatment that receives little attention when clinical trials are being designed. There is a significant need to obtain this important information in an era of increasingly expensive anticancer treatments. Patients who are informed of all implications of therapy-efficacy, side effects, cost, and broader financial impact-are able to select the best cancer treatment for themselves.
