NCT ID NCT05936931

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

Summary

This study explores whether a younger adult (ages 25-44) can encourage an older family member (ages 45-75) in rural areas to get screened for colorectal cancer. Researchers will first survey 300 people, then run focus groups, and finally test the approach with 15 parent-child pairs. The goal is to see if this family-based method boosts screening rates.
