We have demonstrated that a significant proportion of patients with head and neck cancer and staff members would not choose CRT to manage locally advanced laryngeal cancer. Staff members rated the health states associated with laryngeal cancer treatment higher than patients who have experienced them, and this is particularly evident when considering the poorer outcomes. The head and neck cancer community should develop methods of practice and decision-making which incorporate elicitation and reporting of patient values as a central principle.
