Connect2Care: Prostate Cancer Education and Screenings for African American Men
NCT07055165 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
Prostate cancer is the most diagnosed cancer in African American men and the second-leading cause of cancer-related death. The prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test is an early detection screening tool for prostate cancer, however, knowledge about prostate cancer and screening benefits and risks and uptake of PSA screening remains low among African American men. To address this inequity, this project proposes the use of the Connect2Care App to improve knowledge of prostate cancer, screening benefits, risks and increase readiness to complete a PSA test (e.g., intentions, motivation, confidence, and self-efficacy). The primary goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the Connect2Care App in a 30-day randomized control trial compared to an existing app developed by the U.S. Department of Health \& Human Services (Prevention Taskforce App). African American men between the ages of 45 and 69 from Oklahoma (N = 266), who are not up to date with PSA screening according to recommended guidelines, will be randomly assigned 1:1 to receive either app. The app feasibility will be assessed: (1) efficacy, evaluated via post-intervention differences in knowledge of prostate cancer, screening benefits and risks, (2) app engagement and accessibility, measured via self-report validated questionnaires, and (3) app acceptability, explored via semi-structured qualitative interviews. We will explore readiness to complete a PSA test and identify predictors of readiness across both study arms. The successful demonstration of the feasibility of the Connect2Care App among African American men living in Oklahoma will support expanding this intervention to African American men nationwide.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT07055165
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT07055165 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, 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 466 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Oklahoma, which has 306 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 2 conditions, with Prostate Cancer appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Prostate Cancer Genius App is the first listed. 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: NCT07055165 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Oklahoma. 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.
