Sponsor's own description

This study will investigate how patients are informed of their cancer diagnosis or recurrence and will explore their experience in learning about the diagnosis. Specifically, it will: * Distinguish methods of telling the diagnosis and identify its relationship to the type of cancer. * Determine if the way a patient is informed of their diagnosis is associated with their level of satisfaction with the method of being informed. * Identify who informs the patient of their diagnosis.. * Determine patient satisfaction with their diagnostic consult. * Identify indicators of satisfaction with the diagnostic consultation. Patients 18 years of age or older who are enrolled in or being screened for enrollment in a phase I, II or III clinical trial in the National Cancer Institute's Medical Oncology, Metabolism, Surgery or Neuro-Oncology branch may be eligible for this study. Participants complete a 15-minute questionnaire that includes questions related to the how they were informed of their cancer diagnosis.
