NCT06577220

Brief Summary

Regularly attending for Pap test cervical cancer screening in a clinic is often unfeasible and/or unacceptable to many women and persons with a cervix. This study is a supplement to increase representation of Asian and Asian American women in a pragmatic clinical trial that evaluates if mailing and testing self-sampled kits for high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) can cost-effectively increase screening participation among underserved minority women in a safety-net health system.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Primary screening participation

    completion and return of a mailed self-sample HPV testing kit that is adequate for testing (i.e., does not produce unsatisfactory results) or attendance for clinic-based screening

    [Time Frame: within 6 months of randomization

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Screening tests results

    Time Frame: within 6 months of randomization

  • completion of clinical follow-up among women with an abnormal screening test result

    Time Frame: within 12 months of screening test result

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Detection of cervical precancer

    [Time Frame: within 12 months of screening test result]

  • Treatment of cervical precancer

    [Time Frame: within 6 months of diagnosis]

Study Arms (3)

Telephone Recall

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants receive a scripted telephone recall from a trained patient navigator on behalf of Harris Health System

Behavioral: Telephone Recall

Mailed HPV Self-Sampling Kit

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants receive a scripted telephone recall from a patient navigator on behalf of Harris Health System and receive a mailed HPV self-sampling kit with a prepaid return envelope

Behavioral: Telephone RecallBehavioral: Mailed HPV Self-Sampling Kit

Mailed HPV Self-Sampling Kit + Patient Navigation

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants receive a scripted telephone recall and mailed self-sampling kit with a pre-paid return envelope. Within 3-5 days of the kit's mail-out, participants will receive a telephone call from a patient navigator to provide one-on-one education.

Mailed HPV Self-Sampling KitMailed HPV Self-Sampling Kit + Patient NavigationTelephone Recall

Participants receive a mailed kit that allows them to self-collect a cervical sample in their home and return it to a laboratory for human papillomavirus (HPV) testing.

Mailed HPV Self-Sampling KitMailed HPV Self-Sampling Kit + Patient Navigation

Participant receives telephone call from patient navigator within 3-5 days of receipt of self-collection kit. Patient navigator provides one-on-one education on cervical cancer screening and self-collection of cervical sample.
