Ardynn PSDM Support
Personalized Shared Decision-Making (PSDM) Support brings clarity to first-course treatment decisions for individuals newly diagnosed with cancer. It combines non-clinical advocacy with real-world evidence summarized in an easily digestible report patients can share with their care team.
for stakeholders committed to patient centered, value‑based healthcare
Our It pairs compassionate advocacy with our proprietary real‑world data platform, Capire360. This combination ensures treatment choices are informed, personalized and aligned with what matters most to the patient, organically reducing the likelihood of low‑value or misaligned decisions.
Decision Support delivered by advocates — Powered by Capire360
Capire360 analyzes millions of real-world cancer cases to show how people with similar characteristics — age, sex, race, comorbidities, cancer type, and stage — experienced different treatment paths. Reflecting real populations rather than narrow clinical‑trial cohorts, Capire360 provides a grounded view of outcomes. It informs decisions without dictating them. Our advocates translate these data into clear, understandable insights so individuals can weigh trade‑offs, quality‑of‑life impacts and realistic options.

This approach ensures individuals feel seen, heard, supported, and prepared for meaningful shared decision-making, and the report itself serves as audit-ready documentation that supports quality initiatives.
In fact, many individuals we work with choose a treatment plan that differs from the guidelines, because their personal goals and preferences lead them toward a treatment path better aligned with their priorities. The result? An improved quality of life and, in most cases, similar or better expected survival.
