Blood Test (Guardant Shield™) for Screening of Colorectal Cancer in Underserved Patients

Completed
Conditions
Colorectal Carcinoma
Interventions
Procedure: Biospecimen Collection
Other: Survey Administration
Registration Number
NCT05716477
Lead Sponsor
Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center
Brief Summary

This clinical trial evaluates the use of a blood test (Guardant Shield™) for colorectal cancer screening. Colorectal cancer is the third leading cancer and cause of death in the United States. Screening may help doctors find colorectal cancer early when it is easier to treat yet nearly a third of all people eligible for screening have never had a screening test performed. Currently, doctors use a stool- based test such as the fecal immunochemical test (FIT) and visual tests such as a colonoscopy. Blood based testing such as Guardant Shield™, may provide a quick and effective way to screen patients that are hard to reach or with limited access (underserved).

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Recruit women age 45 years and older who are in need of colorectal cancer screening from minority and underserved populations via a community mammography van.

II. Obtain data regarding knowledge, attitudes and beliefs about colorectal cancer screening.

OUTLINE:

Participants undergo blood specimen collection and complete survey on study. Participants may optionally undergo standard of care FIT testing on study.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of patients consentedUp to 2 years

The number and percentage of patients consented out of those approached to be summarized.

Percentage of patients consentedUp to 2 years

The number and percentage of patients consented out of those approached to be summarized.

Knowledge about colorectal screeningUp to 2 years

Summary statistics and data graphics (boxplots, scatterplots, lattice plots) will summarize data about colorectal screening from overall sample and will be correlated with patient demographics using appropriate statistical tests depending on the nature of the data (correlations, t-tests, chi-squared tests, etc.).

Attitudes about colorectal screeningUp to 2 years

Summary statistics and data graphics (boxplots, scatterplots, lattice plots) will summarize data about colorectal screening from overall sample and will be correlated with patient demographics using appropriate statistical tests depending on the nature of the data (correlations, t-tests, chi-squared tests, etc.).

Beliefs about colorectal screeningUp to 2 years
