About this study

The purpose of this study is to understand best strategies for engaging high risk populations in a primary care setting to improved adherence to colorectal cancer screening guidelines. The results will be used to identify best practices that are scalable to other high-risk populations who are due or overdue for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective implementation science study that will test 4 different approaches to increase colorectal cancer screening in a local primary care setting that provides services to individuals who are under-resourced. The interventions will include reminders from primary care providers with and without additional information and/or services to help complete colorectal cancer screening. A review of electronic medical records will be used to identify baseline information assessing risk factors and personal and family CRC history. For arm 3 of the study, participants may elect to enroll in our existing health navigation program. If so, additional baseline information will be collected, including information on Social Determinants of Health (SDOH). For arm 4 of the study, a questionnaire will be used to assess knowledge about colorectal cancer screening. The questionnaire will be repeated after the intervention (informational video). For all arms of the study, the primary outcome (engagement on CRC screening, receipt of CRC screening, results of CRC screening) will be collected through EPIC.

What participants receive

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

  • CRC screening reminderBehavioural

    Participants randomized to the CRC Reminder arm will receive reminder that they are due/overdue for CRC screening

  • CRC Reminder & Short messageBehavioural

    Participants randomized to the CRC Reminder \& short message arm will receive reminder that they are due/overdue for CRC screening and short message to encourage screening

  • CRC Reminder and Navigation ProgramBehavioural

    Participants randomized to the CRC reminder and navigation program arm will receive reminder that they are due/overdue for CRC screening and short message to participate in the health navigation program that will connect participants to individually tailored resources and assistance

  • CRC Reminder & CRC educationBehavioural

    Participants randomized to the CRC reminder and CRC education program arm will receive reminder that they are due/overdue for CRC screening and offered short educational program conducted online

What is being measured

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

  1. Total number of participants who completed their colorectal cancer screening

    The total number of participants that completed their colorectal cancer screening will be measured between the different arms

    Measured: 18 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Time to engagement

    The time to engagement will be measured as the days between reminder or reminder + intervention and days to screening among the 4 arms

    Measured: 18 months

  2. Screening outcomes: results of screening

    Screening outcomes will be defined as the following: descriptive summaries of the result of screening among the 4 arms.

    Measured: 18 months

  3. Screening outcomes: follow up

    Screening outcomes will be defined as the following: descriptive summaries of need and completion of follow up among the 4 arms.

    Measured: 18 months

  4. Screening outcomes: biopsy results

    Screening outcomes will be defined as the following: descriptive summaries of biopsy results (if needed) among the 4 arms.

    Measured: 18 months

  5. Screening outcomes: diagnostic results

    Screening outcomes will be defined as the following: descriptive summaries of the diagnostic result(s) among the 4 arms.

    Measured: 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CRC screening reminder, CRC Reminder & Short message and CRC Reminder and Navigation Program in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Yale 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 1 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 3 Mar 2023. 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?

Total number of participants who completed their colorectal cancer screening (time frame: 18 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 3 Mar 2023.
