Advocacy, Partnership, Outreach, and Yielding Optimized Care for Oncology Patients (APOYO): A Community Health Worker Intervention for Latinx Colorectal Cancer Patients

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 6 Oct 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study is a pilot feasibility randomized trial involving newly diagnosed colorectal cancer (CRC) patients who identify as Latinx. The study aims to leverage existing academic-community partnerships in Santa Clara County to develop and evaluate a multi-level community health worker/promotora (CHW/P) navigator intervention. If found effective, APOYO has the potential to affect clinical outcomes for Latinx colorectal cancer patients both directly and indirectly, including improving health-related quality of life, health care utilization, and reducing social needs.
