Spreading Teen-Recorded Inspirational Videos to Engage Schoolmates
NCT02065206 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
While few students may consider a career in research at baseline, receiving information from peers via online social networks represents a potential way of reaching underserved minority students. This study addresses a critical problem in the process to diversify the pipeline of clinical researchers - how to cultivate baseline interest in research among high achieving youth before they participate in pipeline programs. We will seek to challenge existing paradigms of studying effectiveness of interventions to promote entry of minority youth into clinical research careers through testing a novel social media campaign that aims to increase interest in research careers among schoolmates of students in a pipeline program. We are testing the use of of peer-created and inspired videos about career choice as a novel way to develop messages that have potential to influence teens. Should this research program be successful, it will yield valuable insights for researchers and educators who are attempting to train minority students about the importance of involving youth in creating materials to recruit and retain minorities into pipeline programs and educational programs targeted towards clinical research.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT02065206
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT02065206 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as an unspecified phase, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 554 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Chicago, which has 846 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Communication appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 0 interventions. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT02065206 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Illinois. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
