Tailored care plans aim to bridge health literacy gap for black prostate cancer survivors
NCT ID NCT06674863
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares a standard survivorship care plan to one tailored for low health literacy in 150 African American men who have finished treatment for localized or limited-spread prostate cancer. The goal is to see if the tailored plan helps them better understand their follow-up care and side effects. Researchers hope this approach improves access to survivorship care and health outcomes.
