What this trial studies

This interventional project delivers a web-based educational video to adults aged 21 and older in the Karmanos Cancer Institute metropolitan Detroit catchment area. The video explains the purpose of clinical trials, addresses common myths, and provides information on how to find trial opportunities. Participants complete questionnaires before and after viewing to measure changes in knowledge and intention to participate. Recruitment happens through KCI clinical treatment centers and KCI-sponsored community events and involves no drug or procedural intervention.
