Summary

This study looked at whether a new at-home stool DNA test (Cologuard) can help more Alaska Native people get screened for colorectal cancer, which is very common in this group. About 2,000 Alaska Native adults who were due for screening took part. The test was offered in different ways, including with extra support like patient navigation or mailed reminders, to see which approach works best.
