Summary
This trial develops and studies how well a patient decision aid works in supporting decision-making about when to start or stop new drugs, join clinical trials, or continue active cancer monitoring for patients with medullary thyroid cancer and their caregivers. Developing a patient decision aid may help patients with medullary thyroid cancer make well-informed decisions about their cancer care and be able to discuss their preferences with their doctors.
Description

II. To design and develop an initial patient decision aid prototype. III. To pilot test its acceptability. IV. To evaluate the acceptability and usability of the decision aid prototype from patients/survivors, caregivers and providers in a real world environment.
