Description

Ahmet Emre Eşkazan leads an eighteen-author survey comparing what leukaemia patients and their doctors prioritise in a 2026 Turkish study. Chronic myeloid leukaemia on modern targeted pills now allows near-normal lifespans, so conversation quality steers switching and adherence. One hundred twenty-nine haematologists answered online and one hundred twenty patients by phone through the national society.

Both sides agreed on what must be explained at the start, then ranked it differently: patients wanted disease course, daily-life impact, and whether treatment works; doctors stressed safety and monitoring. On switching, patients again chased effectiveness while doctors chased manageable side effects. A quarter of patients admitted imperfect adherence, mostly forgetfulness, and follow-ups ran about ten minutes every few months. Patients also felt sunnier about daily life with the disease. The team urges shared decision-making to close the gap.
