Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Cancer patients are presented with a lot of information about their diagnosis and different treatment options, which can be confusing. The purpose of this study is to see if a simple video explanation of six words used to describe cancer treatment improves patient understanding of these words.

Cancer patients are presented with a lot of information about their diagnosis and different treatment options, which can be confusing. The purpose of this study is to see if a simple video explanation of six words used to describe cancer treatment improves patient understanding of these words.

Participants will be interviewed and asked the meaning of six words related to cancer treatment. Following the interview, participants will be shown a video about the meaning of the words. After viewing the video, participants will be re-interviewed to test how effective the video was at explaining the six words.
