About this study

Official title: HPV Vaccination Acceptance by African-American Parents: Identifying Psychosocial Barriers

This will enroll 300 mothers of teenage girls and boys to identify barriers to HPV vaccination among low-income, African-American teens.

Read the detailed description

The HPV vaccine offers hope that the incidence of cervical cancer can be greatly reduced in the U.S. and globally. However, because the vaccine is recommended for children and early adolescents, vaccine awareness and acceptance among parents is critical to insuring vaccine uptake and public health benefit. Although culturally specific concerns may reduce HPV vaccination among African-American youth, research has not addressed this possibility. Accordingly, the proposed study will enroll 300 mothers in a study to identify barriers to HPV vaccination among low-income, African-American teens. Surveys assessing culturally-specific barriers to HPV vaccination acceptance will be administered to both parents and their vaccine-eligible children. Upon completion of the survey, parents with vaccine-eligible daughters will be invited to receive a free HPV vaccination for their child through a local, teen-friendly health clinic. Outcome analyses will focus on identification of predictors of completed vaccinations among girls and barriers to vaccine acceptance among mothers of teenage sons. Our study will provide critically important behavioral outcome data linking barriers to vaccination to subsequent vaccination decisions in a real-world, health care setting.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • brief informational intervention to promote HPV vaccine acceptanceBehavioural

    Teen and parent participants will receive a brief informational intervention that provides basic facts about the HPV vaccine, including the health benefits and three-dose requirements, along with information regarding where to go to receive the vaccination. A coupon for a free HPV vaccination will provided to the parent for use by their teenage daughter.

Study groups in NCT00680147
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Brief HPV vaccine informational interventionExperimentalBecause we anticipated that knowledge and awareness of the HPV vaccine would be low in our study population, our CASI survey included a brief, informational overview of key facts concerning HPV vaccination prior to assessing vaccine acceptance, perceived barriers to vaccination, and intentions to vaccinate. The overview lasted approximately 3 minutes and consisted of a brief overview of key HPV vaccination facts that were presented visually (on the computer screen) and read aloud using a digital recording. HPV and vaccine knowledge, awareness, and attitudes items were administered prior to participants hearing the informational overview.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing brief informational intervention to promote HPV vaccine acceptance in people with HPV, run by Syracuse University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

completed vaccination with Gardasil (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 May 2015.
