First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests two ways to encourage colorectal cancer screening among American Indians in Oklahoma. Participants will either watch a video of a real community health educator or interact with a virtual health educator. The goal is to see which method reaches more people and helps them order a home screening kit. 150 adults aged 45-75 who are up to date on screening can join.

What this could lead to

If successful, this approach could increase colorectal cancer screening rates in American Indian communities, potentially catching cancer earlier and saving lives.

What could go wrong

This is a small feasibility study (150 people) testing reach and engagement, not cancer outcomes. The intervention may not change screening behavior significantly.
