Help improve colon cancer screening for people with diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks for better ways to make sure people with diabetes get up-to-date colon cancer screening. If you haven’t had the recommended test on time, it may help identify barriers in primary care and improve screening follow-through.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with diabetes
- You are between 50 and 74 years old
- Your records show you are not fully up to date with colon cancer screening
- You may still qualify if a screening test has been ordered but not completed for a long time (FIT/FOBT over 6 months, or sigmoidoscopy/colonoscopy referral over 1 year)
- You do not have certain health conditions that change your usual screening schedule (like prior colon cancer or inflammatory bowel disease)
