What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study is testing two ways to help people in New York City get screened for breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer. One group gets educational materials plus help from a trained community health worker, while the other group gets only the materials. The goal is to see which approach works better to increase screening rates. About 2,160 adults who are due for screening will take part.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Patient navigation by community health workers and tailored educational materials
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that community health workers are an effective way to boost cancer screening in underserved groups, potentially reducing cancer deaths.
What could go wrong
This is a behavioral study, not a drug trial, so results may vary by community. It compares two strategies, so one may not be clearly better. Also, screening rates may not change much.

Participants

About 2,160 people

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

Started

Jul 2023

Expected to finish

Oct 2026

An estimate. End dates often move.

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.

Who can take part

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