Trial summary

This pilot trial studies how well a mobile health (mHealth) human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine intervention works in increasing HPV vaccine coverage among young adult gay and bisexual men. Giving young men information about the HPV vaccine and the importance of vaccination may encourage them to get the HPV vaccine. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Increasing HPV Vaccine Coverage Among Young Adult Gay and Bisexual Men

This pilot trial studies how well a mobile health (mHealth) human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine intervention works in increasing HPV vaccine coverage among young adult gay and bisexual men. Giving young men information about the HPV vaccine and the importance of vaccination may encourage them to get the HPV vaccine.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Pilot test a mobile health (mHealth) HPV vaccine intervention for young gay and bisexual men to establish feasibility and acceptability.

II. Obtain preliminary efficacy data on whether the mHealth HPV vaccine intervention increases HPV vaccine initiation compared to the control group.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Examine whether the mHealth HPV vaccine intervention affects secondary outcomes compared to the control group.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 groups.

GROUP I (CONTROL): Patients receive standard information about HPV and HPV vaccine, such as the vaccine information statement (VIS), on a mobile-friendly website study portal.

GROUP II (INTERVENTION): Patients receive the mHealth HPV vaccine intervention consisting of content about HPV and HPV vaccine on the study portal for 15 minutes and vaccination reminders sent by the portal via text or e-mail.

All patients complete a survey on the study portal at baseline, immediately after the mHealth intervention or control materials, and at 3 months and 7 months thereafter for about 10-15 minutes each.

What is being measured

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

  1. Acceptability will be established by examining participant satisfaction with study materials

    Linear regression will be used and usage data and satisfaction with vaccination reminders (intervention group only) will be descriptively examined.

    Measured: Up to 7 months

  2. Feasibility established by achieving recruitment, retention, and medical record release goals

    Critical parameters with point estimates and 95% confidence intervals will be estimated and tested with a two-sided alpha=.05

    Measured: Up to 7 months

  3. Receipt of 1 or more doses of HPV vaccine

    Evaluated using logistic regression.

    Measured: Up to 7 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Changes in potential mediators between study group and HPV vaccination (i.e., protection motivation theory [PMT] constructs and HPV and HPV vaccine knowledge)

    Evaluated using analysis of covariance models.

    Measured: Up to 7 months

  2. Receipt of second and third doses of HPV vaccine

    Evaluated using logistic regression.

    Measured: Up to 7 months

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Educational Intervention and Survey Administration in people with Healthy Subject, run by Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

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.

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?

Acceptability will be established by examining participant satisfaction with study materials (time frame: Up to 7 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02835755, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 3 Aug 2017.
