Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study is designed to test a standard mailed intervention (SI) versus a novel decision support and navigation intervention (DSNI). Working with patients and stakeholders, this randomized trial will include 400 Hispanic men and women who are 50 to 75 years of age, patients in community based primary care practices, and are eligible for CRC screening. We will consent, survey, and randomize participants either to the SI Group (n=200) or the DSNI Group (n=200). Study specific aims are to: (1) Assess intervention (DSNI versus SI) impact on overall CRC screening adherence; (2)Assess intervention (DNSI versus SI) impact on CRC screening decision stage; (3) Assess intervention (DNSI versus SI) impact on test-specific CRC screening adherence; and (4) Assess intervention (DNSI versus SI) impact on CRC and knowledge and perceptions.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Standard

SI Group participants will be mailed a set of standard materials. The materials will include a letter from the participant's primary care practice encouraging selection and performance of either (1) colonoscopy screening, or (2) stool blood test (SBT) screening. Accompanying the letter will be instructions for arranging a colonoscopy appointment and instructions for completing an enclosed immunochemical SBT kit. Print materials and contacts will be provided, in both English and Spanish, after the baseline survey. At 45 days following random assignment that encourages screening.

Behavioral: Standard

Experimental: Decision Support & Navigation

DSNI Group will be mailed print materials, including a letter from the practice on CRC screening, an informational booklet, and instructions for arranging a colonoscopy appointment and for completing an enclosed immunochemical SBT kit. All materials will be provided in both English and Spanish. Within 7 days after this mailing, participants will receive a telephone call from a trained bilingual study navigator. Following the call, the navigator will enter the participant's screening plan into the participant's electronic medical record, send the participant a letter describing the screening plan, and send the participant's primary care provider a copy of that same letter. At 45 days following random assignment, research staff will send participants a reminder letter encouraging the participant's preferred test. At 6 months after randomization, the navigator will send the provider and their office manager a participant CRC screening status report.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Overall Screening Adherence [12 months]

    The two study groups will be compared in terms of the fraction of participants who undergo CRC screening (through SBT, colonoscopy, flexible sigmoidoscopy, etc.) within 12 months of the randomization date. Screening will be measured using data from the 6-month survey and the 12-month chart audit.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in Screening Decision Stage [6 months]

    At baseline and endpoint (6-month) survey, participants were asked about their decision stage regarding CRC screening. Possible decision stages are, ranked from lowest to highest stage: Decided not to do, Not considering, Haven't decided, Decided to Do and Done, with "Done" only possible at endpoint.

  2. Test Specific Screening Adherence [12 Months]

    Test adherence (SBT or endoscopy) will be assessed using 6-month survey and 12-month medical records data. The two study groups will be compared in terms of the fraction of participants who have a screening test within 12 months.

  3. Screening Knowledge and Perceptions [6 months]

    Knowledge and perceptions (Preventive Health Model scales) about CRC and screening will be assessed in a 6-month survey. Knowledge was measured by a set of 10 true-false statements about CRC and CRC screening. Knowledge was scored as the number of items correct with a possible range of 0 to 10. Perceptions about CRC and screening were measured using a 20-item scale based on the Preventive Health Model. Items were measured on a 5 point Likert scale ranging from 1 = Strongly Disagree to 5 = Strongly Agree. The total score and subscale scores were computed by taking the mean of component items resulting in scores that could range from 1 to 5, with higher scores indicating more favorable attitudes towards the CRC screening preventive health behavior.

DSNI Group will be mailed print materials, including a letter from the practice on CRC screening, an informational booklet, and instructions for arranging a colonoscopy appointment and for completing an enclosed immunochemical SBT kit. All materials will be provided in both English and Spanish. Within 7 days after this mailing, participants will receive a telephone call from a trained bilingual study navigator. Following the call, the navigator will enter the participant's screening plan into the participant's electronic medical record, send the participant a letter describing the screening plan, and send the participant's primary care provider a copy of that same letter. At 45 days following random assignment, research staff will send participants a reminder letter encouraging the participant's preferred test. At 6 months after randomization, the navigator will send the provider and their office manager a participant CRC screening status report.

Adverse Event Reporting Description
Arm/Group Title Standard Decision Support & Navigation
Arm/Group Description SI Group participants will be mailed a set of standard materials. The materials will include a letter from the participant's primary care practice encouraging selection and performance of either (1) colonoscopy screening, or (2) stool blood test (SBT) screening. Accompanying the letter will be instructions for arranging a colonoscopy appointment and instructions for completing an enclosed immunochemical SBT kit. Print materials and contacts will be provided, in both English and Spanish, after the baseline survey. At 45 days following random assignment that encourages screening. Standard DSNI Group will be mailed print materials, including a letter from the practice on CRC screening, an informational booklet, and instructions for arranging a colonoscopy appointment and for completing an enclosed immunochemical SBT kit. All materials will be provided in both English and Spanish. Within 7 days after this mailing, participants will receive a telephone call from a trained bilingual study navigator. Following the call, the navigator will enter the participant's screening plan into the participant's electronic medical record, send the participant a letter describing the screening plan, and send the participant's primary care provider a copy of that same letter. At 45 days following random assignment, research staff will send participants a reminder letter encouraging the participant's preferred test. At 6 months after randomization, the navigator will send the provider and their office manager a participant CRC screening status report. Decision Support & Navigation
