Summary

This pilot trial tests a community-based program designed to help Chinese immigrants aged 45-75 get up-to-date on colorectal and breast cancer screening. The program includes a group education session led by a community health worker and personalized help navigating the healthcare system. The goal is to see if this approach is acceptable, feasible, and effective in increasing screening rates.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
A community-based program combining group education sessions led by a community health worker and peer navigation assistance to encourage cancer screening.
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could increase cancer screening rates in underserved communities, potentially leading to earlier detection and better outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study, so results may not apply broadly. The program's success depends on participant engagement and may not be sustainable without ongoing support.

Expected to start

Sep 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Mar 2029

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

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