The Ohio State University (OSU) SCREEN Community Program

A Multi-Level Intervention for Improving Screening Rates of Breast, Cervical and Colorectal Cancer in Women in Low-Income Communities

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 24 Dec 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This clinical trial develops and tests how well a multi-level intervention (MLI), The Ohio State University (OSU) SCREEN Community Program, works to increase screening and follow-up for breast, cervical and colorectal (CRC) cancer among low-income and un/underinsured female residents in three counties in Central Ohio. In Ohio, incidence and mortality rates for breast, cervical and CRC are higher than or similar to the national average; in addition, underserved populations - minority, rural and low-income women - have higher rates of these cancers. Screening can detect precancerous colorectal and cervical lesions and other early-stage cancers when treatment is less intensive and more successful and is known to reduce mortality rates for breast, cervical, and CRC, however many of these women lack access to health care and screenings. This MLI includes clinic-based components, such as patient education, as well as community-based strategies, such as media programs and training health workers, that can increase rates of guideline-recommended breast, cervical and CRC screening and follow-ups in underserved populations. The OSU SCREEN Community Program may be an effective way to improve breast, cervical and CRC screenings among underserved women in Ohio.

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Who the study is looking for

  • Level 1 is the health clinics (Helping Hands \[pilot\]; 6 Lower Lights clinics). Clinics are eligible if they provide preventive health care to residents of the targeted census tracts.
  • Level 2 focuses on health care providers (physicians, nurses, physician assistants \[PA\]/nurse practitioners \[NPs\]) and office staff practicing at participating clinics who are involved in the screening and/or screening referral process (determined by individual clinical sites) and can speak, read, and write English
  • Patients (Level 3) are the recipients of health care and screening interventional strategies implemented by clinics and providers.
  • Level 4 is the community to include residents in targeted census tracts around each clinic.
