About this study

Official title: GUIAR: PromotinG Lung Cancer screenIng Awareness and Implementation in Hispanics/Latinx Head and Neck canceR Survivors

The purpose of this study is to assess the awareness of eligibility of lung cancer screening in Hispanic/LatinX Head and Neck Cancer (HNC) survivors using a survey questionnaire; and to understand the barriers to screening using qualitative interviews.

Being tested
Lung Cancer Screening Education, Semi-Structured Interview, Standard of Care Lung Cancer Screening Program
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • Lung Cancer Screening EducationBehavioural

    Tailored lung cancer screening education will consist of an annual, in-person 60 minute visit of lung cancer screening education in the participant's native language with material in layman's terms about the importance of lung cancer screening, tobacco cessation, and the risk of developing a second primary lung cancer.

  • Semi-Structured InterviewBehavioural

    Participants will undergo an annual, in-person or virtual, semi-structured interviews to understand barriers and perception towards screening and cultural competencies to increase adherence to lung cancer screening. The interviews will last approximately 30 minutes at each visit.

  • Standard of Care Lung Cancer Screening ProgramBehavioural

    Participants will receive standard of care referral to the University of Miami's Lung Cancer Screening Program. The standard education includes a one-time, in-person or virtual 60-minute visit with the Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) to review educational material about lung cancer screening and tobacco cessation guidelines, and to discuss the risks versus benefits of undergoing screening.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of participants' awareness of the risk of second primary lung cancer as measured by the University of Miami lung cancer screening program survey questionnaire.

    The proportion of participants' awareness of the risk of second primary lung cancer will be assessed via the University of Miami lung cancer screening program survey questionnaire. Awareness of the risk of second primary lung cancer will be reported as the proportion of participants that indicated 'Yes' and 'No' on the survey questionnaire.

    Measured: Up to 2 Years

  2. Proportion of participants' awareness of lung cancer screening recommendations as measured by the University of Miami lung cancer screening program survey questionnaire.

    The proportion of participants' awareness of lung cancer screening recommendations will be assessed via the University of Miami lung cancer screening program survey questionnaire. Awareness of the lung cancer screening recommendations will be reported as the proportion of participants that indicated 'Yes' and 'No' on the survey questionnaire.

    Measured: Up to 2 Years

  3. Proportion of participants' perception of the risk of second primary lung cancer as measured by the University of Miami lung cancer screening program survey questionnaire.

    The proportion of participants' perception of the risk of second primary lung cancer will be assessed via the University of Miami lung cancer screening program survey questionnaire. Perception of the risk of second primary lung cancer will be reported as the proportion of participants that indicated 'Yes' and 'No' on the survey questionnaire.

    Measured: Up to 2 Years

  4. Proportion of participants' perception of lung cancer screening recommendations as measured by the University of Miami lung cancer screening program survey questionnaire.

    The proportion of participants' perception of lung cancer screening recommendations will be assessed via the University of Miami lung cancer screening program survey questionnaire. Perception of the lung cancer screening recommendations will be reported as the proportion of participants that indicated 'Yes' and 'No' on the survey questionnaire.

    Measured: Up to 2 Years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in proportion of participants that undergo early detection lung cancer screening

    The change in the proportion of participants that undergo early detection lung cancer screening will be reported.

    Measured: Baseline, 1 Year
