A Pilot Trial to Evaluate the Effectiveness of Navigation, Interactive Web Education, or the Combination of Both to Promote Guideline-Concordant Colorectal Cancer Surveillance Care
Status: Recruiting
Location: See all (2) locations...
Intervention Type: Other, Behavioral
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY
This pilot clinical trial looks at whether patient navigation services, an interactive web education intervention, called Current Together After Cancer (CTAC), or both navigation and CTAC works to improve the uptake of surveillance in patients with stage I-III colorectal cancer (CRC). Post-treatment surveillance is critical to detect recurrence early, yet many CRC survivors do not receive recommended surveillance care. Surveillance is a complex process that includes laboratory tests, cross-sectional imaging, and endoscopic procedures. Patient navigation services, interactive web education, or a combination of both may improve surveillance care for patients with stage I-III colorectal cancer.
Participation Requirements• Age ≥ 18 due to disease and clinic population
• Stage I-III CRC survivor within 3 months post-surgical resection
• Being seen at a participating clinic
• Ability to understand and complete surveys in English

Start Date: 2025-11-17
Estimated Completion Date: 2026-12-31
Target number of participants: 75
Experimental: Arm A (navigation)
Patients at the Virginia Mason clinic location receive access to navigation services, in person, via telephone or via electronic conferencing platform, including education on surveillance care, reminders to complete care and assistance in scheduling surveillance, within 3 months of standard of care surgical resection.
Experimental: Arm B (CTAC)
Patients at the Fred Hutch (South Lake Union) clinic location receive access to the online CTAC intervention, which includes self-directed, interactive education about surveillance and a checklist of care, within 3 months of standard of care surgical resection.
Experimental: Arm C (navigation and CTAC)
Patients at the Fred Hutch (Overlake) clinic location receive access to navigation services, in person, via telephone or via electronic conferencing platform, including education on surveillance care, reminders to complete care and assistance in scheduling surveillance, and access to the online CTAC intervention, which includes self-directed, interactive education about surveillance and a checklist of care, within 3 months of standard of care surgical resection.
