Summary

The purpose of this study is to help doctors and patients make better decisions about prostate cancer treatment. This research is being done because we do not know how patient preferences for health states related to prostate cancer affect the final treatment decision.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Survey, interview

A survey is administered to patients visiting the urology clinic to undergo prostate biopsies to validate a method of utility assessment, and understand patients' individual evaluations of treatment-related health states. Medical records will also be reviewed 00 days after the survey was administered to determine whether this data reflects actual treatment decisions.

BEHAVIORAL

patient utility scores (i.e. patient preference weights)

comparison of patient preferences
