Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

The study aims to raise participation of racial and ethnic minority groups in prostate cancer clinical trials conducted at Lyndon B. Johnson Hospital. It uses a multi-faceted intervention comprising a culturally tailored patient video, educational sessions for frontline oncology providers, and nurse navigator support to coordinate care. The effectiveness will be evaluated by comparing enrollment and one-year retention rates before and after the intervention across two prostate cancer trials. The intervention targets patient, provider, and health-system barriers to participation. Eligible participants are LBJ-affiliated prostate cancer patients who can consent and are eligible for an open LBJ trial.
