About this study

Official title: The Impact of Artificial Intelligence-Assisted Health Education on Patients' Intention to Participate in Clinical Trials: A Cluster-Randomised Controlled Trial

With the rapid advancement of biopharmaceutical technology, clinical trials have become the crucial bridge connecting new drugs from the laboratory to clinical application. Despite the increasing number of clinical trial projects being conducted, nearly all such projects face the common challenge of recruitment difficulties. Subject recruitment constitutes a pivotal stage in clinical trials; the ability to recruit a sufficient number of subjects meeting the trial requirements significantly impacts trial quality and also serves as a key factor influencing trial progress. Hematologic cancers constitute a highly heterogeneous group of malignant diseases originating in the haematopoietic organs and primarily affecting the haematopoietic system. They encompass acute and chronic leukaemias, malignant lymphomas, multiple myeloma, myelodysplastic syndromes, and related disorders. For patients facing treatment decisions, clinical trials represent not only a vital avenue for accessing cutting-edge therapies but also impose heightened demands on their capacity for informed decision-making. Conversational artificial intelligence (AI) based on large language models is rapidly advancing in health education and public health communication. Medical chatbots offer scalable and personalised advantages in delivering health information, promoting behavioural change, and enhancing patient engagement, providing a viable pathway for improving trial literacy and decision support. Accordingly, this study proposes to conduct a clinical trial literacy intervention using AI-powered chatbots among haematological malignancy patients. Through a randomised controlled trial (RCT), it aims to evaluate the impact of AI-assisted health education on patients' understanding of clinical trials and intention to participate. This research seeks to validate the application value of AI technology in health education and explore scalable AI-assisted health education intervention models.

Read the detailed description

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of artificial intelligence technology in health education, focusing on haematological cancer patients' awareness of and intention to participate in clinical trials. Through an AI-robot-mediated clinical trial science communication intervention, the research will systematically assess its impact on patients' cognitive levels, attitudes, and participation intentions, exploring a scalable new model for AI-assisted health interventions.

Specific objectives include: (1) Investigating current levels of clinical trial awareness and participation attitudes among haematological malignancy patients; (2) Assessing the practical impact of AI-bot-delivered clinical trial awareness interventions on patients' understanding and intention to participate; (3) Exploring the feasibility and scalability of AI-assisted health education in promoting patient engagement in clinical trials.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Artificial Intelligence Health EducationDevice

    In addition to receiving standard health education, participants underwent clinical trial-specific education delivered via an AI robot. This educational content was designed around fundamental concepts of clinical trials, implementation procedures, clarification of common misconceptions, ethical safeguards, and potential benefits of participation. Its aim was to enhance patients' overall understanding of clinical trials and willingness to participate. The AI robot featured voice interaction capabilities and integrated text-image displays with video materials to enhance the interactivity and comprehensibility of information delivery.

  • Artificial health educationOther

    Received only routine health education delivered by departmental healthcare staff, covering fundamental disease knowledge, treatment protocols, nursing management, and discharge instructions. This education forms part of the hospital's standard clinical practice and typically does not systematically incorporate content related to clinical trials or dedicated educational modules.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. intention to participate

    Measurement via a questionnaire on patients' intention to participate in clinical trials and influencing factors.

    Measured: The first day of patient enrolment and the seventh day following completion of the one-week intervention

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. User experience

    Through questionnaires on intention to use and satisfaction with robots, alongside interview guidelines, we gathered patients' willingness to use intelligent robots and their satisfaction, perceptions, and feedback regarding the robots' role in supporting health education.

    Measured: The seventh day following completion of the one-week intervention

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Artificial Intelligence Health Education and Artificial health education in people with Leukaemia and Multiple Myeloma (MM), Lymphoma, Large B-Cell, Diffuse (DLBCL), Lymphoma, run by Zhongnan Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 0 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?
