Abstract 76P
Background
The study is aimed to identify perception and satisfaction of cancer patients who participate in clinical trials.
Methods
The participants of the study were 110 cancer patients who participated in clinical trials over 2nd cycle at a tertiary hospital, Seoul, South Korea. The instruments used were the perception and satisfaction of cancer patients in clinical trials developed after evaluating content validity index. The collected data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA and Pearson Correlation Coefficients.
Results
The mean perception of clinical trial of patients was 3.97±0.46 out of 5.0. The mean satisfaction of clinical trial of patients was 4.10±0.55 out of 5.0. The perception of cancer patients in clinical trials was significantly difference according to types of cancers (F = 2.88, p=.018), participation period (F = 3.13, p=.029) and subjective understanding of the clinical trial (t = 2.65, p=.015). Satisfaction of cancer patients showed significant difference according to religion (t = 2.32, p=.023), participation period (F = 3.39, p=.021), motive to participate (F = 3.18, p=.010) and decision maker of participation (t = 2.60, p =.025). Perception and satisfaction of cancer patients in clinical trials were positively correlated (r=.66, p<.001).
Conclusions
The results of study can be used as a basis for education program for cancer patients participating in clinical trials.
