Trial summary

Most adolescents who receive human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine are vaccinated in pediatric practices, yet missed opportunities (MOs) for HPV vaccination occur often and lead to low HPV vaccination rates. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 11 to 17 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Child

Practice Inclusion Criteria:

  • The practice provides HPV vaccination services to adolescents.
  • The practice is part of Physician's Computer Company (PCC), Office Practicum (OP) or (a) yet-to-be selected health system(s).
  • The practice has had the same EHR system in place for a year or more (with special consideration on a case by case basis if they are close to but not do not reach a year).
  • The practice agrees to not participate in other HPV-related QI projects or research interventions during the study period (with special consideration on a case by case basis).

Practice Exclusion Criteria:

  • The practice plans to change EHR systems in the next three years.
  • The practice participated in the last year, is currently engaged in, or plans to participate in an office-based HPV-related quality improvement (QI) project or research intervention during the study period (with special consideration on a case by case basis).
  • Estimated 20% or more of adolescents at the practice receive HPV vaccinations at schools or health department clinics (given standard practice and published data, the investigators expect that few to no practices will need to be excluded based on this restriction).

Patient inclusion criteria:

-All patients of participating practices (intervention and comparison) aged 11-17 years who have at least 1 visit to the practice within the past two years.

Patient exclusion criteria:

-None apart from age of patients (above).

About this study

Official title: Improving HPV Vaccination Delivery in Pediatric Primary Care: The STOP-HPV Trial 2 Comparison of Performance Feedback (in the Presence of Communication Skills) and Standard of Care

Most adolescents who receive human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine are vaccinated in pediatric practices, yet missed opportunities (MOs) for HPV vaccination occur often and lead to low HPV vaccination rates. This cluster randomized clinical trial (RCT) will test the effectiveness (and cost-effectiveness) of the addition of performance feedback (period 2) to training providers previously received on HPV vaccine communication (period 1) to reduce MOs and increase HPV vaccination rates.

Read the detailed description

HPV vaccine rates remain lower than rates for other adolescent vaccines. Missed opportunities (MOs) are healthcare visits during which a patient is eligible, but does not receive a vaccine. MOs for vaccination contribute strongly to low HPV vaccination rates. This trial focuses on period 2, the addition of performance feedback in the presence of communication skills training. Arm-1 intervention study practices add performance feedback (period 2), building upon their prior training in communication skills (period 1); Arm-2 comparison study practices continue delivering standard of care. During this period, the investigators will be measuring captured opportunities - the inverse of MOs, or visits when an eligible patient receives a vaccine. Providers rarely receive feedback to track their captured opportunities, but feedback has been shown to be an effective tool. Performance feedback reports will pull from electronic health record (EHR) data, and will compare participants performance to their own previous performance and those of others. Throughout the intervention participants will also receive weekly text message mini-lessons that will remind participants of the project.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in the rate of missed vaccination opportunities among all clinicians

    Change in the rate of missed vaccination opportunities from baseline (period 0) through the end of period 2 among all clinicians, with a focus on the contrast between the end of period 1 and period 2.

    Measured: Monthly for Period 2 and also aggregated over the 6-month period from start date, where start date is site specific and depends on study decision on completion of training and readiness of site to proceed.

  2. Change in the rate of missed vaccination opportunities among consenting clinicians

    Change in the rate of missed vaccination opportunities from baseline (period 0) through the end of period 2 among consenting clinicians, with a focus on the contrast between periods 1 and 2.

    Measured: Monthly for Period 2 and also aggregated over the 6-month period from start date, where start date is site specific and depends on study decision on completion of training and readiness of site to proceed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing STOP-HPV performance feedback intervention in people with Immunization and Vaccination, run by University of California, Los Angeles at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Apr 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in the rate of missed vaccination opportunities among all clinicians (time frame: Monthly for Period 2 and also aggregated over the 6-month period from start date, where start date is site specific and depends on study decision on completion of training and readiness of site to proceed.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Apr 2020.
