RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: A training workshop for cancer clinical trials was developed utilizing a computer simulation encompassing cancer biology, metabolism, adverse effects, and clinical trial design.

Pretests and posttests were administered in a crossover design to evaluate learning about cancer clinical trials. Results. The comparison showed that the workshop did impart knowledge about cancer clinical trials. CONCLUSIONS: Student evaluations of the workshop showed slight improvements from the first year to the second year.
