Hear from Dr. Lydia Scarfò on Patient-Centered Care in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
“It’s becoming increasingly crucial to discuss with the patients their expectations, what they believe are the treatment goals in order to align from the physician and the patient’s standpoint.”
Dr. Lydia Scarfò, Associate Professor of Internal Medicine and Consultant Hematologist at the University of San Raffaele in Milano, Italy, discusses the importance of patient-centered care in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and why understanding each patient’s individual priorities is essential when making CLL treatment decisions.
As CLL treatment continues to evolve, there is no one-size-fits-all approach.
In this video, Dr. Scarfò explores:
- Balancing clinical factors with patient goals, expectations, and preferences
- Insights from an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered semantic analysis of online conversations among people living with CLL across Europe
- Why understanding patient priorities is key to first-line treatment decisions
Discover No Patient Like Me, a program developed in partnership with the CLL Advocates Network, designed to support more holistic, patient-centered conversations between patients and HCPs to enable shared decision-making in CLL care.
