ASCO's Value Framework

The American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Value Framework is a tool designed to help patients and healthcare providers assess the value of cancer treatments. It considers the treatment's effectiveness, side effects, and impact on quality of life. By using a scoring system, it provides a clear way to compare different treatment options based on their benefits, costs, and overall impact on patient well-being. This framework aims to facilitate informed decision-making by highlighting not just the medical outcomes, but also how treatments affect patients' daily lives.
