I Vaccinate: Testing Multi-Level Interventions to Improve HPV Vaccination (IVaccinate)

September 27, 2023 updated by: Electra Paskett, Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center

Improving Uptake of Cervical Cancer Prevention Services in Appalachia; Testing Multi-Level Interventions to Improve HPV Vaccination: The "I Vaccinate" Program

This trial studies how well a multi-level health system-based intervention works in improving human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine initiation and completion among children in health systems in four Appalachian states. Utilizing educational and promotional materials and electronic health record reminders, may improve the uptake of the HPV vaccine in children and young adults, ultimately preventing the development of cervical cancer.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. Test the effectiveness of a multi-level intervention (MLI) directed at clinics, providers, and patients (parents of children aged 11-12) to improve HPV vaccine initiation and completion in health systems in four Appalachian states (Kentucky [KY], Ohio [OH], West Virginia [WV,] and Virginia [VA]) among children aged 11-12 and assess the effectiveness of the intervention program among subgroups, e.g., females versus (vs) males.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Assess sustainability of the intervention. II. Assess cost impacts of the intervention III. Assess changes in clinic practices that occur as a result of the intervention in terms of staff responsibilities for the vaccination process and reducing missed opportunities for vaccination.

IV. Assess whether interventions focused on 13-26 year olds increases catch-up vaccination.

V. Examine changes in knowledge and attitudes of providers via educational session pre-post surveys.

VI. Satisfaction with the intervention at the multiple levels.

OUTLINE: Health systems are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM I (EARLY INTERVENTION): Health systems receive educational materials consisting of posters, brochures and table tents. Providers complete survey about HPV knowledge, participate in educational session over 1 hour and receive educational handouts on the HPV vaccine. Patients receive educational materials about HPV vaccine and reminder letters for HPV vaccination.

ARM II (DELAYED INTERVENTION): Health systems, providers, and patients receive usual care for 12 months, then receive multi-level intervention as in Arm I.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in rate of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination initiation among 11-12 year olds
Time Frame: Baseline up to 24 months
The effectiveness of the intervention will be assessed by comparing early vs delayed intervention clinics at the end of the first implementation phase adjusting for baseline rates and pre- versus (vs) post implementation rates in the delayed implementation clinics.
Baseline up to 24 months
Change in rate of HPV vaccination initiation among those 13-26
Time Frame: Baseline up to 24 months
The effectiveness of the intervention will be assessed by comparing early vs delayed intervention clinics at the end of the first implementation phase adjusting for baseline rates and pre- versus (vs) post implementation rates in the delayed implementation clinics.
Baseline up to 24 months
Sustainability
Time Frame: Up to 24 months
Will use logistic regression models with random health systems effects to compare odds of vaccination at the end of sustainability period to odds of vaccination at the end of the implementation period.
Up to 24 months
Cost-effectiveness
Time Frame: Up to 60 months
Will conduct the cost-effectiveness analyses of using the multi-level intervention (MLI) intervention to promote HPV vaccination in three broad steps.
Up to 60 months
Change in knowledge of providers
Time Frame: Baseline up to 60 months
Will compare changes in knowledge of providers via educational session pre-post survey. Changes in Knowledge following the educational session will be assessed using linear mixed models containing random health system effects.
Baseline up to 60 months
Change in attitudes of providers
Time Frame: Baseline up to 60 months
Will compare changes in attitudes of providers via educational session pre-post survey.
