Development, Co‐Design and Pilot Testing of Resources to Support Informed Decision‐Making for Lung Cancer Screening in Australia
Engaging Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Communities to Prepare for Lung Cancer Screening Implementation in Australia
INTRODUCTION: Lung cancer is the number one cause of cancer death worldwide, including in Australia, where more than 15,000 cases were diagnosed in 2024. The Australian National Lung Cancer Screening Programme commenced in July 2025. Unique barriers to participation in existing cancer screening programmes exist for culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities. Little Australian research has engaged these communities to gauge their acc…
Reducing Stigma in Lung Cancer Screening
INTRODUCTION: Organised lung cancer screening (LCS) programs are being developed worldwide in response to recent landmark trial evidence. Targeting high-risk individuals primarily based on smoking history, LCS faces challenges from smoking-related stigma, which can cause psychological harm and hinder participation. With limited interventions addressing this issue, this study aimed to co-design a communication-based strategy to reduce stigma in th…
User Testing of Information Materials Developed for the Australian National Lung Cancer Screening Program
INTRODUCTION: The Australian National Lung Cancer Screening Program commenced in July 2025. This study aimed to explore the views of community members and the health workforce on the content, language, design and presentation of the draft information materials developed for the general population and health workforce. METHODS: Semi-structured interviews and focus groups were conducted between September and October 2024. Community members potentia…
So, if she wasn’t aware of it, then how would everybody else out there be aware of it?”—Key Stakeholder Perspectives on the Initial Implementation of Self-Collection in Australia’s Cervical Screening …
Whilst the introduction of self-collection was welcomed, clear communication from Government regarding setbacks in implementation and how to overcome these in practice were needed. As Australia moves to a policy of providing everyone eligible for screening the choice of self-collection, wider promotion to providers and eligible people, clarity around pathology processes and the scaling up of test availability, as well as timely education and comm…
Acceptability of risk‐stratified population screening across cancer types
BACKGROUND: There is mounting evidence of the benefit of risk-stratified (risk-tailored) cancer population screening, when compared to standard approaches. However, shifting towards this approach involves changes to practice that may give rise to implementation challenges. OBJECTIVES: To explore the public's potential acceptance of risk-stratified screening across different cancer types, including reducing screening frequency if at low risk and t…
