CHOICES: Understanding Clinical Trials as a Treatment Option

Increasing Participation in Cancer Clinical Trials

The goal of this study is to determine whether having a telephone discussion with a nurse educator about making treatment decisions and participating in a clinical trial increases trial participation.

The investigators hypothesize that the participants in the intervention group will be more likely to take part in a clinical trial than those in the usual care group.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients who are potentially eligible for one of the designated clinical trials on the basis of automated data from pathology reports and other databases

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients who meet specific exclusion criteria for designated clinical trials
