Culturally-Targeted COVID-19 Communication & SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Testing

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This disparities-focused study seeks to evaluate communication strategies for better encouraging understanding and uptake of salivary SARS-CoV-2 antibody testing among African Americans residing in Flint, Michigan. This iteration will consider individuals recruited from the Flint Registry and assess willingness to participate in a drive-up saliva sample collection taking place at a central location in Flint, Michigan.

Clinical Trial Description

African Americans develop and die from SARS-CoV-2 infection more than any other racial group in the United States, including in majority African American cities such as Flint, Michigan. Addressing these disparities may be aided by SARS-CoV-2 antibody testing. However, African Americans may be reluctant to partake in conventional antibody testing programs due to medical mistrust and experiences with racism. This study seeks to evaluate communication strategies for better encouraging understanding and uptake of salivary SARS-CoV-2 antibody testing. The central hypothesis is that African-Americans will be more receptive to antibody testing when benefits and limitations are communicated in a culturally effective manner. Our clinical trial aims are to 1) develop and compare effects of a general versus culturally-targeted video about antibody testing on African American and White Flint residents' antibody testing attitudes and uptake; 2) identify and compare effects of a general versus culturally-targeted video on activation of medical mistrust and racism-related cognition among African Americans when considering antibody testing. In collaboration with clinical and community partners, we have prepared and will evaluate general and culturally-targeted video tutorials about SARS-CoV-2 antibody testing. These brief videos will be distributed to the Flint community through the Flint Registry - a highly visible local health resource exchange. We will furnish an opportunity to engage salivary antibody screening and measure willingness to participate. In this study iteration, we will consider willingness to participate in a drive-up saliva sample collection that is taking place at a central location in Flint, Michigan. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
