About this study

Official title: Integrating a Health Information Technology System With a Web-based Mobile Health Educational Intervention to Support More Effective Provider-patient Communication and HPV Vaccine Utilization

The project aims to increase HPV vaccination and cervical cancer screening through a web-based mobile health education program called, Wheel of Wellness (WoW) and a brief negotiated interview (BNI). The in-person BNI and WoW system will provide educational resources for participants and their families to learn more about HPV vaccination and cervical cancer screening.

Read the detailed description

WoW will be tailored to the participant and will be based on the participant's cancer screening and HPV vaccine health needs; It will then send custom text messages based their concerns and will remind them to schedule and attend their doctor's appointment. The researchers will conduct a single armed proof of concept where the participants will be actively using WoW. The in-person BNI will empower participants to have positive behavioral changes in regards to their health by giving them appropriate health information as well as answering their questions and concerns about cervical cancer prevention and screening.

    The Text/web based health information technology system, WoW, will provide educational resources for participants and their families to learn more about HPV vaccination and cervical cancer screening. WoW will be tailored to the participant and will be based on the participant's cancer screening and HPV vaccine health needs; It will then send custom text messages based their concerns and will remind them to schedule and attend their doctor's appointment. The brief negotiated interview will encourage and empower participants to have positive behavioral changes in regards to their health.

What is being measured

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

  1. HPV vaccine series start and completion

    The primary outcome of interest is receipt of the first dose and completion of the three-dose or two-dose series of HPV vaccine by participants within six months of intervention by EMR review.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. HPV and Cervical Cancer awareness and knowledge

    Change in knowledge of HPV vaccination and cervical cancer will be measured using a survey, which is under development, that includes questions about HPV and HPV vaccination. It will be administered before and again after the intervention and changes in responses will be compared.

    Measured: 6-12 months

  2. Provider-patient communication about HPV vaccine and cervical cancer

    Based on participants' entries onto the WoW website, a list of their concerns and questions about HPV vaccine and cervical cancer will be created and this list will be brought to a clinical visit with their providers. Following the clinical visit, participants will be asked whether providers addressed their questions and concerns about HPV vaccine and cervical cancer using a short questionnaire with a 5 point likert scale where 1=completely addressed and 5= not at all addressed. Lower scores are favorable.

    Measured: one week after provider visit throughout the duration of the study

  3. Wheel of Wellness (WoW) feasibility

    The feasibility of WoW will be assessed by using a short questionnaire that measures both how easy the WoW site is to navigate and how frequently participants used the WoW site.

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Wheel of Wellness (WoW) feasibility

    The feasibility of WoW will be assessed by using a short questionnaire that measures both how easy the WoW site is to navigate and how frequently participants used the WoW site.

    Measured: 12 months

Model description
We are proposing a single arm proof of concept. We will recruit 30 parents/guardians and their age-eligible child for the single arm proof of concept. For this proof of concept/pilot trial, we will assess the feasibility and impact of WOW to improve provider communication about HPV vaccination and increase the initial and complete vaccination rates for both boys and girls aged 9-17 and to enhance knowledge and awareness about risks and benefits of HPV vaccine among dyads. The power of our proposed pilot for determining intervention effects is limited. However, because we are proposing a proof of concept pilot and feasibility study, in our experience and that of others, our proposed sample size generally provides sufficient data to estimate subject retention, distribution of variables and feasibility as we plan for a larger-multi-site RCT of the proposed study. We expect our intervention to demonstrate feasibility of the intervention in a clinic setting.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing WoW and BNI in people with Human Papilloma Virus and Cervical Cancer, run by Boston Medical Center 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 5 inclusion and 3 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 9 Oct 2019. 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.

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?

HPV vaccine series start and completion (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 9 Oct 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
