Clinical Trial Summary

This study is designed to examine the impact of telephone-based colorectal cancer risk assessment on colorectal screening attitudes and behavior among previously unscreened adults ages 50 to 75.

Description:

Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains the 3rd most common cancer in the US. Most CRCs are preventable, but screening participation remains suboptimal. Several factors have been associated with screening compliance, such as perception of CRC risk. Here we study the impact of telephone-based administration of the National Cancer Institute Colorectal Cancer Risk Assessment Tool (CCRAT) compared to usual care.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Other	Risk perception: Health Belief Model Likert Scale	Differences in perception of one's own risk of colorectal cancer ranging from "very unlikely" (minimum) to "very likely" (maximum), with "very unlikely" representing the most favorable outcome of perceived risk and "very likely" representing the most unfavorable outcome of perceived risk.	Immediate after intervention
Other	Fear: Health Belief Model Likert Scale	Presence of fear of discovering colorectal cancer on performing screening test ranging from "strongly disagree" (minimum) to "strongly agree" (maximum), with "strongly disagree" representing the most favorable outcome of fear and "strongly agree" representing the most unfavorable outcome of fear.	Immediate after intervention
Primary	Screening Behavior: Differences in colorectal cancer screening completion rates between usual care (UC) and CCRAT	Any CRC screening test completed including stool tests (FOBT (fecal occult blood test), FIT (immunochemical test for fecal blood), stool DNA test), colonoscopy, flexible sigmoidoscopy, double contrast barium enema, CT colonography (virtual colonoscopy)	12 months after intervention
Secondary	Screening Behavior: Differences in colorectal cancer screening completion rates between usual care (UC) and CCRAT	Any CRC screening test completed including stool tests (FOBT (fecal occult blood test), FIT (immunochemical test for fecal blood), stool DNA test), colonoscopy, flexible sigmoidoscopy, double contrast barium enema, CT colonography (virtual colonoscopy)	6 months after intervention
Secondary	Change in intention to screen at 6 months and 12 months	Differences in progressive behavioral stages of adoption from precontemplation to contemplation to preparation.	Immediate after intervention, 6 months and 1 year after intervention
Secondary	Colorectal cancer screening rates at 12 months as a function of CCRAT score	Screening completion at 12 months will be compared between the 3 tertiles of CCRAT score in the intervention group to determine whether there is any relationship between absolute CCRAT score and screening completion	12 months after intervention
