Trial summary

Each year in the U.S., ≥20,000 women and 14,000 men are affected by HPV-related cancers, including cervical and oropharyngeal cancer. However, in 2020, only 59% of U.S. adolescents aged 13-17 were up-to-date for HPV vaccination, and rates for 11-12 year olds, the primary target age group for HPV vaccination (when the… Read more about this study

About this study

Each year in the U.S., ≥20,000 women and 14,000 men are affected by HPV-related cancers, including cervical and oropharyngeal cancer. However, in 2020, only 59% of U.S. adolescents aged 13-17 were up-to-date for HPV vaccination, and rates for 11-12 year olds, the primary target age group for HPV vaccination (when the immune reaction is better and before exposure to HPV infection), are even lower. Standing orders (written protocols that authorize designated members of the healthcare team to vaccinate without first obtaining a patient-specific physician order) have been shown to work in inpatient settings and for adults, but have not been evaluated for HPV vaccine, which some parents consider controversial. Also, the ways in which organizational readiness for change (resources, motivation, staff attributes, leadership support and culture) moderate the effect of standing orders has not been studied. A physician's recommendation is correlated with HPV vaccine acceptance, and the investigators have developed a successful online, interactive, communication education program that will be adapted to train nurses and staff in addition to physicians. The investigators propose testing standing orders for HPV vaccine in an Accountable Care Organization (ACO) in Western New York, and assessing which provider and practice factors moderate the effect of standing orders. Advantages of this setting include a diverse group of rural, urban and suburban practices, and the ACO provides data infrastructure and analytics that allow practices to evaluate vaccination rates in real time.

Using a 2-arm cluster randomized trial (n=40 practices), the investigators will assess the effectiveness of standing orders (SO) + HPV communication education (intervention arm) relative to HPV communication education alone (control arm) on HPV vaccination for 9-17 year-olds.

What participants receive

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

  • CommunicationBehavioural

    Practice personnel (providers and nurses) receive training in communication about HPV vaccination via an online learning module.

  • Standing OrdersBehavioural

    Practice personnel (providers and nurses) receive training in the implementation of standing orders for HPV vaccination via an online learning module and meetings with the study team.

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient-Level Captured Opportunities for HPV Vaccination

    The percentage of HPV vaccine eligible patients, aged 9-17, with a practice visit during the specified timeframe of interest who receive >=1 HPV vaccination.

    Measured: 12-month intervention period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Communication and Standing Orders in people with Hpv, run by University of Rochester 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 1 inclusion and 2 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 May 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?

Contact Robin Bender ((585) 274-1499, robin_bender@urmc.rochester.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Patient-Level Captured Opportunities for HPV Vaccination (time frame: 12-month intervention period). 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 29 May 2026.
