United Kingdom844 participantsStarted 2024-11-25
Plain-language summary
The goal of this study is to learn if an innovative digital artificial intelligence (AI)-based communication tool works to enhance health literacy among Japanese caregivers regarding Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination.
Participants will:
* Answer a pre-intervention survey, get information regarding HPV vaccination from an AI-based chatbot or leaflet, and answer a post-intervention survey.
* Continue interacting with the chatbot or leaflet for two weeks.
* Answer a follow-up survey.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* A nationally representative sample of female caregivers with daughters aged 12-18 who have not received any HPV vaccine.
* Those who have access to a smartphone or computer with internet connectivity to interact with experiment materials (chatbot or online leaflet).
* Those who provide informed consent and agree to participate in the study.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Those who need help reading through the participant information sheet, providing consent online, accessing experiment materials (chatbot or online leaflet), or answering surveys will be excluded. This may include people who do not have access to an online environment or people with severe cognitive impairments who cannot interact with the experiment materials. Also, those who have participated or are participating in similar studies regarding vaccination or experiments that utilize chatbots will be excluded.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
