Improving Muslim Women's Uptake of Cancer Screening (IMCAN)

Improving Uptake of Breast, Bowel and Cervical Cancer Screening Among Muslim Women: a Non-randomised Feasibility Study of a Peer-led, Faith-based Intervention

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 29 May 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this non-randomised trial is to test how a workshop that includes religiously-tailored messages can help increase the uptake of breast, colorectal and cervical cancer screening among Muslim women in North East England and Scotland. The results of this trial will inform the development of a full-scale randomised-controlled trial. Participants in this study will be asked to take part in a two-hour workshop, deliver either online or in-person.
