NCT ID NCT05888584

First seen Jun 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study aims to develop and test a tool that helps lung cancer nurses talk to patients about clinical trials. Only about 8% of lung cancer patients in the UK join trials, and nurses often lack the time or confidence to discuss them. The tool will be tested in four UK hospitals to see if it improves the number and quality of these conversations.
