The SMARTER CRC trial evaluated mailed fecal immunochemical (FIT) outreach and patient navigation strategies across rural clinics, analyzing how implementation factors like clinic-sent letters, consistent FIT usage, and active participation in health plan meetings impacted screening outcomes. Two authors of the study, Dr. Gloria Coronado and Dr. Amanda Petrik, join Dr. Charles Turck to discuss their findings and how these results may help guide effective, scalable screening interventions for underserved populations. Dr. Coronado is a Professor of Epidemiology and the Associate Director of Population Science for the University of Arizona Cancer Center in Tucson, and Dr. Petrik is an investigator at the Kaiser Permanente Center for Health Research in Portland, Oregon, where she focuses on cancer screening and prevention in real-world settings.
