Study Description

Brief Summary: This trial studies how well a multilevel human papillomavirus (HPV) self-testing intervention works in increasing cervical cancer screening among women in Appalachia. Most cases of cervical cancer occur among unscreened and underscreened women. A multilevel HPV self-testing intervention may help to improve cervical cancer screening rates.

Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: Determine the effectiveness of the intervention in increasing cervical cancer screening. OUTLINE: Participants are randomized to 1 of 2 groups. GROUP I: Participants receive the HPV self-testing intervention consisting of mailed HPV self-test devices. Participants also receive an information about cervical cancer. Participants who do not return their self-test within a few weeks receive telephone-based patient navigation. GROUP II: Participants receive usual care consisting of a reminder letter to get a clinic-based cervical cancer screening test and information about cervical cancer.
