Assessment

Primary outcomes

Total SDM-Q-9 score (range, 0-45) measured at the initial visit after study enrollment, before or at the time of the initial treatment decision.
The SDM-Q-9 is a 9-item patient-reported questionnaire assessing the patient's perceived involvement in shared decision-making; each item is scored from 0 to 5.

Key secondary outcomes

1. QOL-ACD total and domain scores: measured at the initial visit, at major treatment decision-making, before treatment initiation, every 3 months, at treatment completion, at relapse/progression, and every 6 months during follow-up.
2. Longitudinal SDM-Q-9 score change (0-45): measured at major treatment decision-making, treatment completion, and relapse/progression.
3. JCOG-CGA components: G8, IADL, Charlson Comorbidity Index, living situation, and Mini-Cog assessed at the initial visit, major treatment decision-making, every 3 months, treatment completion, relapse/progression, and every 6 months thereafter.
4. Treatment completion, modification, and discontinuation rates: assessed from first-line treatment initiation to completion or discontinuation.
5. Grade >=3 adverse events: assessed by CTCAE v5.0 from each treatment start through treatment completion and during treatment for relapse/progression.
6. Overall survival and progression-free survival: assessed from enrollment to death or last known alive date, and from enrollment to progression, relapse, or death, whichever occurs first.
7. Cyclic outpatient care outcomes: reverse-referral, re-referral, emergency readmission, and local-care completion rates assessed from enrollment through follow-up.
8. Health-economic measures: DPC code, hospital length of stay, DPC bundled reimbursement points, and fee-for-service-equivalent reimbursement difference assessed through follow-up.
9. Associations of SDM-Q-9: associations with QOL-ACD at each assessment and with treatment completion and grade >=3 adverse events through first-line treatment completion.
