Choices for Latinas and Clinical Trials
Choices: Increasing Access of Latinas Into Breast Cancer Clinical Trials
Study Overview
Detailed Description
This study features a cohort design with random assignment of 112 Latina breast cancer patients from the CTRC to an intervention (56) or usual care control group (56). The intervention group will receive three components: 1) a culturally sensitive and individually tailored, 30-minute computer-based BCCT educational video; 2) a bilingual, low literacy booklet that encourages patients to communicate with family and friends; and 3) support from a patient navigator. The usual care control group will receive usual care breast cancer clinical trial information materials offered by the CTRC to its eligible patients. The intervention is based in two proven theories - Stages of Change and Social Cognitive Theory - and will feature basic components of individual empowerment, including knowledge, attitudes, skills and self-efficacy beliefs and expectations.
The study has three main phases: Phase 1: Formative Research; Phase 2: Intervention; and Phase 3: Evaluation.
Purpose:
To empower Latinas to make informed decisions about breast cancer clinical trials (BCCTs) by enhancing their knowledge, attitudes, skills and self-efficacy required to support discussion of CT as a treatment option with doctors and family members.
Specific Objectives:
- Increase patient education and awareness, positive attitudes and self-efficacy to enhance their decision-making skills to participate in BCCTs.
- Provide decisional support to make an informed decision regarding participation in BCCTs by encouraging discussion of BCCTs as a treatment option with medical team, family and friends.
- Test the efficacy of a multi-communication intervention to assist Latina breast cancer patients in their decision making process regarding participation in BCCTs.

Experimental: Intervention
The intervention group will receive three components: 1) a culturally sensitive, individually tailored, 30-minute computer-based BCCT video; 2) a bilingual, low-literacy booklet aimed at encouraging patients to communicate with family and friends and 3) assistance from a patient navigator.
|
Intervention includes 1) a 30-minute computer-based video (in English/Spanish), featuring instructional screens, graphics and animation to help participants understand the concepts presented.
It will feature breast cancer patients who have participated in CTs, patients talking to their doctor or nurse and a bilingual narrator to guide participants.
Video content will address common barriers and concerns regarding clinical trials, as well as the informed consent process, and how clinical trials are monitored and reviewed; 2) a bilingual easy to understand booklet with tailored information on clinical trials.
The booklet will include many of the elements and messages featured in the video program; and 3) assistance from a trained, bilingual, bicultural, nurse navigator.
|
No Intervention: Usual Care
The usual care control group will receive the usual care breast cancer clinical trial information materials offered by the CTRC to their eligible patients.
