U.S. Latinos have higher rates of liver, cervical, and other cancers, have lower cancer screening rates, and are diagnosed at more advanced, less treatable cancer stages than non-Latinos.Patient navigation is an emerging way to tackle these grave disparities.In fact, bilingual, bicultural patient navigation can effectively guide Latino cancer patients and survivors through the complex care system, increasing timely diagnosis and treatment [1][2][3]. Now researchers are taking navigation to innovative new levels, beyond just helping patients. For example, studies are testing how navigation can improve Latino cancer survivors' quality of life, help survivors make cancer-recurrence-fighting dietary changes, and educate on cancer prevention. The behaviors that can be influenced by navigation are boundless.Patient navigation is a means for providing access to recommended cancer screening services, follow-up, diagnosis, and treatment in medically underserved populations.Navigators are trained to help "navigate" underserved people through the complex care system and other barriers to care (finances, transit, child care, language, culture, etc.). It aims to help reduce missed appointments, reduce delays in seeking care, increase follow-up care, and cover the entire ecological framework from policy, community, organizational, interpersonal, and survivor elements.Several years ago, my colleagues and I developed a national Latino cancer research network (Redes En Acción; funded by the National Cancer Institute from [2000][2001][2002][2003][2004][2005][2006][2007][2008][2009][2010][2011][2012][2013][2014][2015] to use research, training, and awareness to reduce cancer health disparities among Latinos.As part of Redes, we adapted patient navigation for Latinos.Breast cancer, for example, is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in Latinas, who are more likely to be diagnosed at advanced disease stage, making it critical to reduce the time from screening to diagnosis to treatment.Our studies found that Latinos had delays in time to confirmatory diagnosis and start of treatment after an abnormal mammogram. Our subsequent clinical trials hypothesized, and went on to prove, that patient navigation by a bilingual, bicultural patient navigator can reduce Latinas' times to diagnosis and treatment and significantly increase the proportion of Latinas initiating treatment. Navigation indeed is likely to have saved the lives of many Latinas in these studies [1][2][3]. Those studies opened new doors.Our Redes team launched a follow-up study hypothesizing that Latino breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer survivors who get an innovative navigation intervention (vs. usual care) will show greater compliance in following prescribed treatments and improved general and cancer-specific quality of life.The study focuses on more than 250 Latino survivors in San Antonio and Chicago who report a significantly lower general healthrelated quality of life, physical well-being and emotional well-being.Some promising preliminary findings indicate...
