In CAC2’s June webinar, “Beyond the Signature: Demystifying Informed Consent in Childhood Cancer,” we brought together an extraordinary panel of experts, including a clinical ethicist, a pediatric oncologist, and a parent advocate, who each offered unique and deeply informed perspectives on how we can make this informed consent process more ethical, transparent, and truly family-centered.
Informed consent is more than just a signature on a form. It is a vital process that ensures families understand, trust, and feel empowered in the face of one of the hardest decisions they may ever make: enrolling their child in a clinical trial. In this webinar panel discussion. our experts explored how our current system of protections evolved, what informed consent looks like in practice, and how we can close the gap between intention and experience. We wanted to shed light on how to move this critical conversation forward for children and families across the pediatric cancer community.
