We designed a questionnaire to measure patients’ understanding of cancer clinical trials. That questionnaire includes eight domains as below: purpose, procedures, risks, benefits, voluntary, supporting after participating in a trial, burden of expense and implementation structure. We performed pilots testing and surveys using that questionnaire. We revealed the test-retest reliability of that questionnaire was good with intraclass correlation coefficients. We could not conclude the validity of that questionnaire because of the small sample. We continue to perform that survey to identify the validity of that questionnaire.
