Description

Summary

The objective of this pilot study is to compare the effectiveness of mailed outreach of two stool based tests, Cologuard and the fecal immunochemical test (FIT) in screening eligible adults ages 45-49 receiving care at the University of California San Diego Health system.

Official Title

Comparative Effectiveness of Mailed Cologuard Outreach to Mailed FIT Outreach

Details

Adults ages 45-49 who are insured, deemed average risk and not currently up to date with colorectal cancer screening will be enrolled. Eligible participants will be randomized to either mailed Cologuard outreach, facilitated by Exact Sciences or mailed FIT outreach. Colorectal cancer screening completion within 3 months will be measured as the primary outcome, in addition to secondary recruitment and intervention-based feasibility outcomes to demonstrate the potential for a larger randomized controlled trial.
