The material is divided up into levels. The
lower levels are focused on introducing the idea of clinical trials as a source of
information about benefits and risks. The higher levels are about comparing
different kinds of measurements.
The material is set up to be a
conversation-starter for patients and their healthcare teams; this guide would help
patients understand how clinical trial results can be used to understand the risks
and benefits of their treatment options.
We created a basic visual to explain the key
pieces of a clinical trial so that patients can understand what is being compared in
measurements.
We created visualizations of different
responses a patient might have to a cancer treatment. These terms are important for
understanding how results are measured, and also help patients learn terminology
they might hear from their healthcare team.
