proState Cancer Health Education to pRomote Early sreENing Uptake (SCREEN): A Pilot Randomised Control Trial
Sponsor: Teesside University
Summary
Prostate cancer is an issue of significant public health concern. Yet in low- and middle-income countries like Nigeria, men are adversely affected due to factors including poor early prostate cancer screening uptake. Yet a gap remains in addressing this urgent problem. The proposed study seeks to pilot the feasibility and acceptability of a novel co-produced workshop intervention called "proState Cancer awareness education to pRomote Early screENing uptake (SCREEN) with men who are not or partially up to date with their screening. The SCREEN intervention is designed to raise awareness of prostate cancer, its symptoms, implications for late screening, the benefits of early screening, avenues for screening uptake, and also addressing anxiety related to screening uptake. The SCREEN intervention is low-intensity and lasts approximately two hours. The proposed study also aims to pilot and test the instrument to determine its effectiveness and cost-effectiveness, including the mechanism by which the intervention might work.
