Arm Label

Men over 40: Screening with intervention

Men 18-39: Educational intervention

Arm Description

Participants over the age of 40 complete an educational intervention comprising a 10-20 minute PowerPoint presentation given by an experienced healthcare professional that discusses prostate cancer facts, screening guidelines, risks, benefits, and consequences. Participants may undergo a screening exam comprising a prostate specific antigen level and digital rectal exam.

Participants between 18 and 39 complete an educational intervention comprising a 10-20 minute PowerPoint presentation given by an experienced healthcare professional that discusses prostate cancer facts, screening guidelines, risks, benefits, and consequences.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Proportion of participants over age 18 that demonstrate improved knowledge about prostate cancer screening
Improved understanding will be defined as an increase in the number of correct answers seen on the post Prostate Screening Education Questionnaire. The underlying likelihood of a positive response, or improved understanding of prostate cancer screening, can be estimated using a 95% confidence interval that has a maximum half-width of 6%.
Proportion of participants over age 40 who find this education and screening model helpful in making an informed decision about prostate cancer screening as measured by the satisfaction survey questions
Helpfulness of the program will be measured on a 5-point Likert scale where the two uppermost categories are considered a positive response.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Proportion of participants who choose to enter the clinical trial
Proportion of participants who choose screening after educational intervention
10-year expected mortality based on USCF 10-year Mortality Index for all participants
Proportion of participants with a high 10-year mortality based on UCSF index who choose to be screened for prostate cancer after educational intervention
Proportion of abnormal results found with screening and referred to follow-up assessed as per National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines
Proportion of participants diagnosed with malignancy based on follow up biopsies and work-up during the course of the study
Proportion of participants with family history of prostate cancer
Proportion of participants referred to a primary care physician who did not previously have a primary care physician
Proportion of participants who asked the physician to make a decision for them in spite of educational intervention
Proportion of participants who expressed satisfied with this proposed informed consent and education model

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This clinical trial studies an informed decision making intervention of screening for prostate cancer in predominantly African American participants. It also evaluates participants' knowledge about prostate cancer screening and to improve understanding. Using decision aids such as culturally sensitive written material, verbal information, and videos to educate patients about screening may increase patient participation and knowledge. This may increase confidence in participants' decisions. Raising awareness about prostate cancer in the communities may increase the participants' willingness to be screened for prostate cancer once they have learned about it.
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: (A) To assess the effectiveness of a proposed educational model for informed decision about Prostate Cancer in high risk men over age 40 which compares informed decision making and shared decision making (B) to improve knowledge about prostate cancer in men over age 18 OUTLINE: Participants complete an educational intervention comprising a 10-20 minute PowerPoint presentation given by an experienced healthcare professional that discusses prostate cancer facts, screening guidelines, risks, benefits, and consequences. Some participants then undergo a screening exam comprising a prostate specific antigen level and digital rectal exam. After completion of study, participants are followed up periodically.
