Building Community Living Labs in Black Communities to Advance Prostate Health Equity and Reduce Prostate Cancer Disparities in Black Men

This clinical trial the possibility of establishing a Community Living Labs (CoLLab) Learning Health System to facilitate access to prostate health Risk, Education, and Assessment in the Community with Help (REACH) services in Black men and compares the impact to American Legion Posts with no CoLLab set up at the individual and community levels. Cancer is the second leading cause of death for Black men and Black men are less likely to receive prostate cancer screening. CoLLab Learning Health System utilizes community health workers (CHW) that are well-trained to form a bridge between communities and clinicians. In fact, Black men who work with CHW's typically have better access to health services, gain knowledge about cancer, cancer prevention, treatment and may have better overall health outcomes. Establishing a CoLLab Learning Health System at American Legion Posts may improve access to clinical trials and prostate cancer services in Black men.

About this study

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Co-create real-life user centric CoLLab Learning Health System at three American Legion Posts, compared to an American Legion Post with no CoLLab set-up. American Legion Post 197 will serve as the hub and Post 244 and Post 194 as the spokes.

II. Assess and evaluate the impact of the CoLLab Learning Health Systems compared to the comparison Post at the individual and community levels.

III. Explore the feasibility of replicating the CoLLab Learning Health System in Black communities nationally.

OUTLINE:

Participants access CoLLab Learning Health System to use any of the services at least twice monthly for up to 1 year.

Primary outcomes

  1. Create real-life user centric CoLLab Learning Health System (program production)

    Time frame: Up to 12 months

    Qualitative data collection will be employed during a town hall meeting with the CoLLab Community Advisory Board (CAB) to ensure that we get unbiased and objective feedback from participants.

  2. Impact of the CoLLab Learning Health Systems

    Time frame: Baseline; up to 12 months

    Will be assessed using pre-test and post-test survey scores from a Prostate Health Resources Questionnaire, which consists of 6 multiple choice questions, 8 true/false/don't know questions, 13 questions answered on a 5-point scale (e.g., very favorable to unfavorable or strongly agree to strongly disagree), and 20 yes/no questions.

  3. Feasibility of Replication - cost analysis

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

    Will be assessed using cost analysis of direct and indirect costs.

  4. Feasibility of Replication - qualitative

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

    Will be assessed qualitatively based on interviews of key personnel and users
