Key Points Question Are health literacy, contextual factors, or sociodemographic characteristics associated with parental perception of voluntariness during informed consent for pediatric leukemia clinical trials? Findings In this cross-sectional study that included 97 parents of children with newly diagnosed leukemia, lower perception of voluntariness was significantly associated with lower health literacy. Meaning Low health literacy may have a role in parents not making complete and meaningful informed decisions for their child’s participation in cancer clinical trials.
