Shared decision-making for organised breast cancer screening (OBCS) could be improved by fostering interaction and exchanges of information between women and General Practitioners (GPs), for instance by including an assistance tool in the dispatch of the invitation letter for Organised Screening for breast cancer. In 2018 the national cancer Institute funded the development of a decisional aid (DA) on the theme of whether or not to take part in breast cancer screening, specific to the French setting. It is the website Discutons-mammo.fr DEDICACES project 1.
DEDICACES 2 is a population-based trial with a cluster design. It studies humans, without modifying their usual care. The experiment assesses the effect of the discutons-mammo.fr tool on the decision to take part (or not) in OBCS among women who are invited for screening.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Decisional aid for organised cancer screening | Experimental | Women will receive a leaflet that presents the tool. The leaflet includes a link to access the tool, and encourages the person to consult their GP to initiate the shared decision-making process. GPs will receive a letter presenting the study that includes: a) information about shared decision-making and how to implement it; b) the letter that is sent to their patients, and c) a recommendation to implement shared decision-making with their patients. |
|
| Standard organised cancer screening | No Intervention | Women and their GPs will continue to carry out usual screening. |
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The decidons ensemble (let's decide together) leaflet and the discutons-mammo.fr (let's talk about breast cancer screening) online tool. | Other | The leaflet will include a link to access the discutons-mammo.fr DA aid tool, and will inform women about shared decision-making. The GPs of women who are sent the leaflet will also be sent a letter encouraging shared decision-making. This material will be sent 3 months after women have received their breast cancer screening invitation letter. Data related to primary and secondary objectives will be collected by questionnaire from the 2 groups. The questionnaire will be sent 2 months after participants are informed about the tool. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation of the effectiveness of the discutons-mammo.fr DA tool on decision-making concerning the choice of whether or not to participate in OBCS among women who are invited for screening. | Overall score on the 16-item Decisional Conflict Scale (DCS). Measured 2 months after participants are informed about the tool, in both arms. 5 response categories: 1 = strongly agree; 5 = strongly disagree. Scores range from 0 [no decisional conflict] to 100 [extremely high decisional conflict]. | 2 months |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation of the effect of the presentation of the discutons-mammo.fr tool on the intention to participate in OBCS. | Score on a one-item (Measures of Decision) scale measuring intention to participate in OBCS. Measured 2 months after participants are informed about the tool, in both arms. Respondents check a box lying on a 15-point scale ranging from "I wish to participate in breast cancer screening" to "I do not wish to participate in breast cancer screening", with "I'm not sure" in the middle. Scores will be reclassified as follows: 1-5 (yes); 6-10 (unsure); 11-15 (no). |

Inclusion Criteria :
- General practitioners (GPs):
The following GPs will be included:
1) Practicing in one of the French départements (administrative area) covered by the study.
- Women:
The following women will be included:
Exclusion Criteria :
- General practitioners (GPs) :
The following GPs will be excluded:
Those who do not have any patients invited for OBCS in the studied month;
Those whose practice does not correspond to the usual activities of a GP (known as a Mode d'Exercice Particulier), or who have very few patients (who have seen fewer than 100 different patients in the year preceding the experiment);
Those who practice within a health centre (as it is impossible to evaluate the activity of an individual practitioner in health insurance databases);
Those who explicitly state that they do not want to take part in the study, in response to an initial letter of invitation. This letter will inform them that the study is being run, and will inform them of the option to refuse to participate if they so wish;
Those who are participating in the MyPEBS study (the only national study of OBCS at the time the present protocol was drawn up).
The following women will not be included:
The following women will be excluded:

| Evaluation of the effect of presenting the discutons-mammo.fr DA tool on the implementation of shared decision-making. | Scores on the 9-item Shared Decision Making Questionnaire (SDM Q9). Measured 2 months after presentation of the tool, in both arms. Six response categories: 10 = completely disagree; 5 = completely agree. Scores are reported on a scale ranging from 0 (the lowest possible level of SDM) to 100 ( the highest extent of SDM). | 2 months |
| Evaluation of the effect of presenting the discutons-mammo.fr DA tool on women's knowledge of OBCS. | Number of correct responses to a 10-item questionnaire that tests OSBC-related knowledge. The questionnaire was developed in the context of the DEDICACES project (part 1) and is based on items included in the IPDAS (International Patient Decision Aid Standards) score. Measured 2 months after presentation of the support tool, in both arms. | 2 months |
| Evaluation of the effect of the presentation of the discutons-mammo.fr DA tool on women's care pathways following an invitation to participate in OBCS. | Data related to care pathways 2 months after presentation of the DA tool, in both arms: mammograms completed; appointments made to undergo mammography; appointments made to discuss screening; type of professionals contacted by participants (GP, midwife, gynaecologist, other). | 2 months |
| Evaluation of the effect of presenting the discutons-mammo.fr DA tool on decisional conflict in subgroups characterized by lower participation in OBCS. | Collection of socio-demographic patient data (home, work, marital status, in receipt of state aid) and health data (long-term illness, history of participation in OBCS, history of participation in colon cancer screening). Data collected 2 months after presentation of the DA tool, in both arms. | 2 months |
