CONTIGO - A Narrative Intervention to Enhance Genetic Counseling and Testing

Официальное название

Testing a Narrative Intervention to Enhance Genetic Counseling and Testing

Обзор

This is a mixed-methods Hybrid Type 1 research design (efficacy study) in which we aim to conduct a two-arm randomized controlled trial and an Implementation Focused Process Evaluation of a culturally-targeted video and referral screening tool. In this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the efficacy of a culturally targeted video previously developed by the research team vs. a Spanish-language fact sheet from an established group on enhancing genetic counseling and testing uptake and psychosocial outcomes in Latina women at risk for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. The investigators will test the video's efficacy while also gathering data on the implementation and future sustainability of using the Risk Screening Tool (RST) and video in community clinics.

Подробное описание

The investigators previously developed and piloted a culturally targeted narrative video in Spanish to provide HBOC and GCT education to at-risk Latinas. The investigators expanded traditional approaches to address psychosocial barriers through risk messages designed to elicit emotional responses; emotions are often stronger predictors of behavior than cognition. Our video is responsive to Latinas' preferences, targets motivators, and addresses psychosocial barriers identified in our formative research.

In this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the efficacy of our video vs. a fact sheet from an established group on enhancing GCT uptake and psychosocial outcomes on a two-arm randomized controlled trial. The investigators will test the video's efficacy while also gathering data on the implementation and future sustainability of using an adapted Risk Screening Tool (RST) and video in community clinics.

The investigators will partner with community clinics and implement a Risk Screening Tool (RST) at their practice to identify women at risk of HBOC. Community clinic staff (N\~32) will be asked to participate in a pre-implementation and a post-implementation focus group to assess implementation outcomes of integrating HBOC screening practices in their clinic. Through the community clinics, the investigators aim to recruit N\~300 Latina women at risk for HBOC based on their personal or family history of cancer. Latina women at risk for HBOC will be randomized to a Video arm or Fact Sheet Arm. All participants in the randomized controlled trial will be offered genetic counseling and testing.

Вмешательства

• Поведенческое Culturally Targeted Narrative Video: "Is My Cancer Hereditary? Rosa Visits a Genetic Counselor."
  Participants randomized to the video arm will receive a link with a password by email or text message to watch the video, depending on participants' preference. Participants without internet access will receive a DVD. Participants will be instructed to watch the video alone with no interruptions. We will ask them not to share the link with others.
• Поведенческое FORCE Fact Sheet
  Participants will receive a PDF of the fact sheet by email, text message, or a printed fact sheet by mail depending on participants' preferences. The fact sheet includes information about genes, breast cancer, risk factors for HBOC, genetic counseling and testing, and resources.
