Participatory Research to Advance Colon Cancer Prevention
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The overall goal of this study is to test strategies to raise rates of colorectal cancer screening among the Latino population in a federally qualified health center that operates multiple clinics. This intervention study will test automated and live prompts to a direct-mail fecal testing program in two phases.
In Phase I (Years 01 - 02), the investigators will tailor and define intervention components using a community-based participatory research approach called boot camp translation (BCT). The ultimate design of the intervention will be defined by patient and provider feedback from BCT. The investigators will then conduct a three-arm patient-randomized comparative effectiveness trial in two pilot clinics to compare 1) automated prompts (i.e., automated phone calls, text messages) to alert and remind patients to complete screening, 2) live prompts (i.e., live phone calls), and 3) a combination approach of automated plus live prompts.
In Phase II (Years 03 - 05), the investigators will spread and test the spread of the adapted intervention to additional clinics within the partnering health center using a two-arm main trial.
Both phases will be guided by an advisory group of clinicians, researchers, policy makers, and patients.
