Official title
Randomized Controlled Trial of Accessible Online Genetic Services for Cascade Testing for BRCA Mutation Carriers Versus Usual Care in a Clinic Setting
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to assess an intervention that incorporates engagement strategies with a medical team navigator, an educational video and accessible genetic testing services to maximize the genetic testing and education of at-risk relatives. In this study, first degree relatives who agree to participate will either receive this intervention or standard of care. The investigators do not know if the facilitated interventional method will be more effective than the standard of care method. This research is being done because identification of patients with inherited gynecologic/breast cancer syndromes is critical to enable delivery of tailored cancer treatment and cancer prevention to both the patients and their at-risk relatives. Cascade genetic testing, defined as extending genetic testing to the family members of affected patients, results in a more precise risk assessment and initiation of appropriate cancer screening and prevention strategies. Therefore, this trial will compare the efficacy of a multicomponent facilitated intervention for first degree relatives vs. standard of care in terms of the overall proportion of first degree relatives who complete genetic testing by 6 months (primary outcome).
