Official title
Colorectal Cancer Screening in Black and Underserved Communities in the Phoenix Metro Area: Addressing Disparities in Cancer Prevention
About this study
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate patient navigation to address colorectal cancer disparities seen in people of color, minority populations, and establish an ongoing colorectal cancer screening outreach program for this community in Phoenix.
OUTLINE:
Participants receive free FIT tests in conjunction with education on colorectal cancer screening. Participants undergo self-collect FIT and mail the sample to Mayo Clinic Lab for processing. Participants also complete a questionnaire about colorectal cancer screening and healthcare. Participants receive FIT test results through Mayo Clinic nursing support and participants with a positive test are followed up by a patient navigator to discuss next steps and consultation with a gastroenterologist to review their results.
After completion of screening, participants with a positive FIT test are followed up at 2 and 4 weeks after initial outreach to assure participants have received adequate follow up.
