Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new program to help the patient and the caregiver make decisions about treatment for lung cancer. We need to know if a new information program is helpful to patients. The way that we will do this is by comparing it with the usual information program that we now provide. Patient are asked to make difficult decisions about their treatments. These decisions may include when to change treatments or when to stop treatment altogether. Most patients ask a family member or close friend to help them with these difficult decisions. A "caregiver" is someone they can count on to give support (either emotional or physical) over a period of time. The doctors and nurses will also help patients and their caregiver to make these decisions. They will tell them the risks with each treatment, the success with each treatment, and how much time there is for making each decision.
