Clinical Trial: Increasing Uptake of Cascade Testing in Families With Familial Cancer Syndromes: A Randomized Controlled Trial of a Registry-aided Model.

U.S., June 5 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07626814) titled 'Increasing Uptake of Cascade Testing in Families With Familial Cancer Syndromes: A Randomized Controlled Trial of a Registry-aided Model.' on May 19.

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare the uptake rates of a patient-initiated model of cascade testing with a registry-aided model amongst relatives of patients identified to have a particular cancer predisposition gene. Cascade testing allows the benefits of genetic testing to spread beyond the patient and enables other family members to make an informed choice on genetic testing. The researcher team hopes to study the rates of cascade testing using the two models, whi...
