Summary

This study in Puerto Rico tests whether patient navigators (who help women overcome barriers like transportation) and at-home HPV self-testing can increase cervical cancer screening. About 1,400 women aged 25-65 who are overdue for screening will be randomly assigned to different support strategies. The goal is to find cost-effective ways to catch cancer early and reduce health disparities.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that patient navigators and at-home HPV tests boost screening rates and reduce cervical cancer disparities in Puerto Rico.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage behavioral study, not testing a new drug or cure. Results may not apply to other populations or settings.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Participants

About 1,400 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Feb 2025

Expected to finish

Aug 2028

An estimate. End dates often move.

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
