Trial summary

This study evaluates the implementation of evidence based strategies to optimize HPV vaccination in rural primary care settings. Some of the largest disparities in human papillomavirus vaccination (HPVV) rates exist in rural communities, which represent missed opportunities for cancer prevention. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Implementation of Evidence-Based Strategies to Optimize HPV Vaccination in Rural Primary Care Settings

This study evaluates the implementation of evidence based strategies to optimize HPV vaccination in rural primary care settings. Some of the largest disparities in human papillomavirus vaccination (HPVV) rates exist in rural communities, which represent missed opportunities for cancer prevention. Primary care provider visits in these communities serve as a crucial opportunity to communicate the importance of timely vaccination that is essential to effective cancer prevention. This study implements and tests a practice-level intervention (PC TEACH) using practice facilitation of evidence-based strategies to expand reach to rural community-based primary care settings to optimize delivery and increase HPVV rates. PC TEACH program may help rural communities overcome access and awareness factors that keep them from receiving HPVV.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Identify practices from across 20 rural counties in central and western New York (CWNY) using registry data from New York State Immunization Information System.

II. Leverage established community network contacts of primary care practices across 20 rural counties in CWNY to support and enhance recruitment and retention activities.

III. Establish a Rural Cancer Health Equity Community Advisory Board (CAB) to enhance capacity to implement evidence-based cancer prevention activities in rural primary care settings (like primary care practice-level, medical office-based intervention [PC-TEACH] for Human Papilloma Virus Vaccine [HPVV]).

IV. Recruit rural primary care practices to implement PC TEACH intervention and contribute practice, provider, and patient-level data including adolescent vaccination rates.

  1. Implement systematic practice-level changes (i.e., PC TEACH strategies) in rural community-based primary care practices.
  2. Evaluate effectiveness of PC TEACH intervention and quality improvement within the practices using process and outcome evaluation measures.

OUTLINE:

Primary practice providers sites receive PC TEACH over 3.5 hours for 12 months.

After completion of study, primary care provider sites are followed up for 3-6 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Adolescent HPV vaccination rates

    To evaluate the impact (short and long-term) of the proposed PC TEACH (primary care practice-level, medical office-based intervention) intervention on human papilloma virus vaccine (HPVV) uptake and completion rates using a staggered (stepped-wedge) intervention schedule. Briefly, practice-specific vaccine rates data will be modeled as a function of time in intervention (0, 6, 12, 18, or 24 months), while adjusting for baseline rates collected prior to intervention for each practice. For vaccine rates, an additional factor for calendar time will be included in the model to address potential seasonal effects.

    Measured: Up to 5 years (60 months)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Age at vaccination

    will evaluate the impact of the proposed PC TEACH intervention on age at using a staggered (stepped-wedge) intervention schedule. Briefly, practice-specific vaccine rates data will be modeled as a function of time in intervention (0, 6, 12, 18, or 24 months), while adjusting for baseline rates collected prior to intervention for each practice.

    Measured: Up to 5 years (60 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Educational Intervention in people with Human Papillomavirus Infection, run by Roswell Park Cancer Institute 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 12 inclusion and 5 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Mar 2026. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Change in Adolescent HPV vaccination rates (time frame: Up to 5 years (60 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 17 Mar 2026.
