New study offers navigation, education, and rides to boost colon cancer screening Follow-Up
NCT ID NCT06822530
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a program that includes a patient navigator, an educational video about colonoscopy, and a free rideshare ride home can help more people complete a follow-up colonoscopy after an abnormal stool-based colorectal cancer screening test. About 682 adults aged 45-75 who had an abnormal FIT result but no colonoscopy yet will take part. The goal is to see if this support increases the number of people who get the recommended colonoscopy within six months.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- multilevel intervention (patient navigation, educational video, rideshare transportation)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this approach could increase colonoscopy completion rates after abnormal stool tests, helping catch colorectal cancer earlier in under-resourced communities.
- What could go wrong
- This is a behavioral intervention trial, not a drug or device study. Results may vary by clinic and patient population, and the intervention may not work in other settings or for all groups.
