The EXPLAIN study sought the views of those who take part in clinical trials and those involved in designing, managing, and recruiting to clinical trials to help identify the key topic areas for which explainer videos should be created. This information was then used to start the creation of a library of explainer videos that is freely shared with UKCRC registered CTUs to utilise in and across their portfolio of trials as each trial/ CTU decides to.
