e20543 Background: Advance care planning (ACP) is an important topic for women with metastatic or recurrent cancer. Unfortunately, data suggest ACP is often not discussed at health care visits. Because patients with metastatic or recurrent cancer are incurable, the issue of end of life (EOL) is one faced by patients and providers. This study evaluates how often oncologic health care providers initiate EOL conversations with their patients. Methods: Eligible patients included women with metastatic or recurrent gynecologic or breast cancer of ≥3 month’s duration in an academic women’s oncology program. Interviews were conducted by research staff. Clinical characteristics and documentation of EOL decisions were obtained through chart reviews. Data were analyzed using SAS v.9.3. Multivariate logistic regression was used to model the association of EOL discussions with ACP. The study was approved by the hospital and university Institutional Review Boards. Results: 200 women were enrolled; 64% had stage III-IV cancer at diagnosis. The majority was white (91%) with a mean age of 60 (range 35-82). A total of 638 providers were identified (mean: 3.2 providers per patient; 57% female). Health care provider type and gender were not associated with EOL discussions. Only 49 women (25%) recalled an EOL conversation with at least one provider which appeared to correspond to the low proportion of people with documented ACP. Only 42 (22%) had an advanced directive (AD) and 29 (15%) a health care proxy (HCP) in the chart. Having an EOL conversation with at least one provider was not associated with a chart-documented AD (OR=1.6, 95% CI=0.7-3.6) or HCP (OR=1.8, 95% CI=0.7-4.5). The time since recurrence was shorter for those reporting EOL conversations (1.7 vs. 3.1 years, p=.0274). Conclusions: In this study, oncologic health care providers infrequently initiated EOL discussions with their patients with metastatic or recurrent cancer. More concerning, patient recollection of an EOL discussion with a provider was not associated with chart-documented ACP. Further studies evaluating the factors limiting EOL discussions as well as studies testing interventions to improve provider documentation of the ACP are warranted.
