NCT ID NCT06074536

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether giving general practitioners face-to-face training in patient-centered care helps them make better shared decisions with patients about colorectal cancer screening. About 400 patients aged 50 to 74 who are eligible for screening will take part. The main goal is to see if the training improves how much patients feel involved in the decision, measured by a questionnaire.

Active substance

patient-centered approach training (face-to-face training for general practitioners)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that training doctors improves how patients and doctors make screening decisions together, potentially increasing screening rates.

What could go wrong

This is a relatively small trial (400 participants) testing a training method, not a new treatment. Results may not apply to other settings or screening programs.
