Abstract

Medical advancements are highly dependent on adequate enrollment in clinical trials. While there are a number of systemic issues that contribute to low accrual to clinical trials, improved communication behaviors and practices can significantly contribute to increases in clinical trial accrual. Here, we review advances in the development of clinical trial communication training programs for clinicians and clinical research staff as well as innovations in patient education that largely focus on new technology and multimedia formats.
