Background summary
Trial participation of cancer patients lacking standard treatment options is crucial for the development of new anti-cancer drugs. The main reason to participate is hope for remission or even cure. This study investigates the relationship of motivation for treatment, coping, locus of control, hope and quality of life in patients considering a phase I or II clinical cancer trial. Insight in these relationships could improve individualised patient information, within the legal settings, during the informed consent procedure and trial participation.
