Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This clinical trial tests the impact of the The Ohio State University Connecting Underrepresented Populations to Clinical Trials (CUSP2CT) project on clinical trial referrals and enrollment in racial/ethnic minorities. Progress in cancer prevention, detection and treatment can only be made by identifying and validating new and improved methods, compounds and modalities in clinical trials. Unfortunately, participation in clinical trials is not equal across all racial and ethnic groups, limiting progress against cancer in all population groups and further widening the disparity gap. To change this picture, concerted effort needs to be directed both at the communities at risk for being left out of trials and the systems that cause the disparities at all levels involved in accrual to clinical trials. The CUSP2CT project may have the potential to increase referral and accrual of racial/ethnic minorities to prevention/control and treatment trials.

- type
- EXPERIMENTAL
- label
- Phase I (interview, discussion, review, AEP, education)
- description
- Community members, clinic staff, and providers undergo in-depth interview for intervention development on study. Researchers review baseline data on referral patterns and accrual of racial and ethnic minorities to clinical trials in each clinic site. Providers, clinical staff, and research team participate in implementation discussion. AEP strategies developed and initiated in one OSUCCC/James clinic. Providers and community members participate in educational sessions on study. (Year 1)
