Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Complete development of and refine "Smarter Screening", a multi-component, patient-centered intervention centered around ePrognosis: Cancer Screening to facilitate shared decision-making screening discussions for breast and colorectal cancer in older adults.

II. Assess feasibility and acceptability of the "Smarter Screening" intervention and assess its impact versus usual care on shared decision-making about whether or not to continue breast and colorectal cancer (CRC) screening among multi-ethnic and socioeconomically diverse primary care patients.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. Impact on breast and CRC screening versus usual care.

II. Risk perception, worry, and a patient-reported measure of decision quality.

OUTLINE: Participants are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM I: Participants receive Passport to Health booklet and complete ePrognosis before scheduled primary care visit.

ARM II: Participants receive usual care before scheduled primary care visit.

After completion of study, participants are followed up at 1 week post primary care visit.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proportion of participants enrolled
Time Frame: 6 months
Ability to successfully recruit the target of approximately 40 patients will be determined by the overall number of participants who were screened for enrollment compared to the overall number of participants who were randomized to one of the groups.
6 months
Proportion of primary care physicians (PCPs) enrolled
Time Frame: 6 months
Ability to successfully recruit PCPs will be determined by the overall number of physicians who were contacted compared to the overall number of physicians who actively participated over the course of the study.
6 months
Percentage of participants enrolled at 6 months
Time Frame: 6 months
The investigators aim to attain at least 75% of recruited patients in each arm at the 6 month follow-up.
6 months
Proportion of participants who received an ePrognosis report
Time Frame: 6 months
The proportion of participants who received an ePrognosis report will be reported
6 months
Proportion of physicians who utilized the ePrognosis clinician report
Time Frame: 6 months
All enrolled intervention PCPs will receive a web-based survey after each patient visit to record whether the physicians used and/or discussed ePrognosis in that visit. The proportion of physicians who use the ePrognosis clinician report in their cancer screening counseling with participants/patients will be reported
6 months
Responses to Qualitative Acceptability survey
Time Frame: 6 months
A survey will be provided to PCPs and used to measure acceptability of the ePrognosis report by asking patients and providers to provide feedback about the intervention, including likes and dislikes, and future recommendation of using the report provided.
6 months

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proportion of patients screened for breast cancer
Time Frame: 6 months
The impact on breast cancer screening versus usual care will be measured by comparing the proportion or participants who were screened for cancers by treatment arm.
6 months
Proportion of patients screened for colorectal cancer
Time Frame: 6 months
The impact on colorectal cancer screening versus usual care will be measured by comparing the proportion or participants who were screened for cancers by treatment arm.
