Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) screening rates among patients receiving care at multiple federally qualified health care centers (FQHCs) in New York city are low. Proactive outreach through mailed fecal immunochemical tests (FIT), reminders and navigation are evidence based interventions to improve CRC screening rates but remain untested in this study population.
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness, implementation, and cost-effectiveness of a multilevel proactive outreach strategy to improve CRC screening rates among underserved adults in Brooklyn, New York.
Methods: This is a randomized controlled trial across five FQHCs serving predominantly Black and low-income populations. Adults aged 45-75 who are overdue for CRC screening are randomized to usual care or a multi-level proactive intervention. The intervention includes mailed education and FIT kits, patient navigation, and support for colonoscopy scheduling and follow-up. The primary outcome is CRC screening completion (FIT or colonoscopy) within six months. Secondary outcomes include colonoscopy follow-up after a positive FIT, implementation barriers and facilitators, and cost-effectiveness.
Results: A total of 1379 participants have been enrolled through May 2025.
Discussion: This trial addresses a critical gap in CRC prevention by testing a scalable, multilevel outreach model tailored to underserved populations. Findings will inform future strategies to enhance screening rates while reducing screening disparities through sustainable FQHC-based programs.
