Abstract

Many psychological and ethical questions arise when deciding to pass from the curative to the palliative stage of cancer care. Beyond the aspects of drug toxicity and the numerous somatic consequences of last-chance treatments, this article sheds light on central topics such as the best interest of the patient, quality of life, autonomy and vulnerability, shared decision making and relational trust.
