About this study

Official title: Scientific Literacy and Breast Cancer Clinical Trials Education Program for Hispanic American and African American Women

The purpose of this study is to test a program designed to increase African American and Hispanic American women's scientific literacy, knowledge of clinical trials, and to facilitate breast cancer clinical trial participation.

Read the detailed description

Knowledge and participation in clinical trials is disproportionately low among minorities. The purpose of this study is to test a program designed to increase African American and Hispanic American women's scientific literacy, knowledge of clinical trials, and to facilitate breast cancer clinical trial participation.

A validation study was also conducted to validate several measures for the Hispanic American and African American populations.

The experimental group watched an education program concerning breast cancer clinical trials while the control group watched an education program on neighborhood safety.

To examine willingness to participate in research was assessed by a post-intervention invitation to complete a sleep diary.

Study groups in NCT02808598
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Clinical Trials Education ProgramExperimentalBreast Cancer Clinical Trials Education program is offered to women in the experimental arm. This program was designed to promote increased clinical trials literacy among African American and Hispanic American women. Increased clinical trials knowledge and a better understanding of clinical trials is anticipated to create more positive attitudes, and perceptions about clinical trials among these two groups of women who are traditionally underrepresented in breast cancer clinical trials.
Receives: Behavioral: Breast Cancer Clinical Trials Education Program
Neighborhood Watch Education ProgramPlacebo comparatorThe Neighborhood Watch Program created by the Bureau of Justice Assistance and the National Crime Prevention Council was selected for inclusion in the control arm of this study. It provided participants with a program of equivalent length and format, as well as an equivalent focus on improving the well-being of African American and Hispanic Americans. It also provided an opportunity to evaluate the impact of the Neighborhood Watch Program.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Educational Post-Intervention Changes in Participants' Breast Cancer Clinical Trials-Using Standardized Personal Health Survey.

    The study administered standardized psychosocial measure (Personal Health Survey) at baseline. Data were gathered to measure participants' knowledge and attitudes. The overall data from all measures were then used to evaluate the impact of the intervention, as well as what factors may have moderated and mediated that outcome. To measure changes in participations' behavior, they were immediately offered the opportunity to take part in another study that required a new consent document and collection of saliva samples. Regardless of whether the participants agreed to take part in this second study, they were next invited to be a part of the Ambassador for Clinical Trials Program, which meant they would periodically receive flyers about open clinical trials to share with family, friends, and community contacts.

    Measured: Baseline data using Personal Health Survey were collected immediately prior to participants' randomization to either the experimental or control study arms.

  2. Educational Post-Intervention Changes in Participants' Breast Cancer Clinical Trials-Using Standardized Social Status Survey.

    The study administered standardized psychosocial measure (Social Status Survey) at baseline. Data were gathered to measure participants' knowledge and attitudes.

Regardless of whether the participants agreed to take part in this second study, they were next invited to be a part of the Ambassador for Clinical Trials Program, which meant they would periodically receive flyers about open clinical trials to share with family, friends, and community contacts.

    Measured: Baseline data using Social Status Survey were collected immediately prior to participants' randomization to either the experimental or control study arms.

  3. Educational Post-Intervention Changes in Participants' Breast Cancer Clinical Trials-Using Standardized Reactions to Race Module.

    The study administered standardized psychosocial measure (Reactions to Race Module) at baseline. Data were gathered to measure participants' knowledge and attitudes.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

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?

Educational Post-Intervention Changes in Participants' Breast Cancer Clinical Trials-Using Standardized Personal Health Survey. (time frame: Baseline data using Personal Health Survey were collected immediately prior to participants' randomization to either the experimental or control study arms.). The study lists 12 primary outcomes in all. 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 22 Jun 2016.
