PSA Trial Summary

This trial is testing an intervention to increase inform decision-making in Latino men regarding prostate cancer screening. The intervention is an interactive presentation on prostate cancer, given to small groups of men. The investigators hope that this will increase knowledge of prostate cancer, communication about the disease, and screening rates.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for Latino men aged 50-70 in Los Angeles who have never had prostate cancer or a PSA test in the last year, and do not currently have prostate issues like pain during urination. Men with previous prostate surgery, biopsy, or outside the age range are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if an interactive session discussing prostate cancer screening can improve decision-making among participants compared to just receiving printed material. The impact on knowledge and screening rates will be assessed through follow-ups.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves educational sessions rather than medical treatments, there are no direct side effects related to drugs or interventions typically associated with clinical trials.
