Understanding clinical trials in childhood cancer (e-learning module)

This resource has been developed by PICS, Victoria’s Paediatric Integrated Cancer Service. 

As part of our professional development and education resources for health professionals, PICS has developed a series of e-learning modules with input from staff from The Royal Children’s Hospital Melbourne, Monash Children’s Hospital, and Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre.

This module is Understanding clinical trials in childhood cancer. It will help learners to:

  • Describe the importance of clinical trials
  • List the purposes and phases of clinical trials
  • Describe the roles and responsibilities of a bedside nurse in caring for the child/adolescent and their family enrolled in a clinical trial.

The module is freely available, and hosted on the eviQ Education website.
