Summary

This study tests a program called CTNow, which uses educational videos for patients and workshops for doctors to help rural cancer patients in Hawaii learn about and access clinical trials. About 50 patients and their providers will take part. The goal is to see if the program increases patients' awareness and knowledge of clinical trials.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Multimedia educational videos and provider workshops via Zoom
What this could lead to: If successful, this program could help more rural cancer patients learn about and join clinical trials, potentially improving their access to new treatments.
What could go wrong: This is a small pilot study with only 50 participants in Hawaii, so results may not apply to other regions. It measures knowledge change, not direct health outcomes.
