KKKarissa D. KaoJTJonathan P. TroostJYJu Dong Yang

Key Points

  • This research examines patient preferences for surveillance methods in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and how these preferences vary across different demographic groups.
  • Conducted a multi-site conjoint analysis on surveillance test preferences.
  • Evaluated preferences based on race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status (SES).
  • Assessed the impact of financial and logistical barriers on surveillance participation.
  • Patients prioritize the sensitivity of surveillance tests.
  • Preferences vary significantly by race, ethnicity, and SES.
  • Enhancing access to surveillance through reduced barriers may improve participation.

Abstract

Patients with undergoing HCC surveillance prioritize surveillance test sensitivity; however, results vary by race, ethnicity, and SES. Improving access by reducing financial and logistical barriers through shared-decision-making may enhance surveillance, particularly when modalities present with similar effectiveness.
