Participants were included if they had consented to participate in an Australian collaborative investigator led clinical trial for prostate or other urogenital cancer. Semi\u2010structured interviews with participants were completed by telephone. Using verbatim transcriptions, their experiences relative to key stages of a clinical trial were analysed using a Framework Method. Findings were interpreted to develop key recommendations for use by investigators developing a clinical trial.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>22 people consented and participated in interviews. They came from rural, regional, and metropolitan areas across Australia. Participants were being treated for advanced uro\u2010genital and prostate cancers. Across interviews, participants spoke about their supportive care needs and how they valued their relationships with the multi\u2010disciplinary research team and the clinical oncology and urology teams. There was variation in participant needs according to the stage of the clinical trial. Despite times of uncertainty, it was reported clinical trial participation was meaningful. Receiving information about overall findings of the clinical trial was important to participants allowing them to understand the impact of their contribution.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Understanding the experiences of clinical trial participants can improve the design of trial protocol processes and procedures.
