Summary

This trial will study a game-based approach for family members of 11-14 year olds to promote HPV vaccination. The intervention has potential to reduce HPV-associated cancers in youth, with low-cost technology use.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for families with kids aged 11-14 who haven't had their first HPV shot. The child must understand English, and the parent should be over 18, speak English or Spanish, own a smartphone, and agree to participate in study activities and receive texts. Healthcare providers involved need to be over 20 and work at the study sites.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing an innovative game designed to encourage HPV vaccination among youth. It will assess how well this game works in health clinics, its acceptance by families, any changes it brings about regarding vaccinations, and what factors affect its success.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves a game-based educational tool rather than a medical treatment or drug, there are no direct physical side effects expected from participating in this trial.
