Genetic testing guidance for inherited breast, ovarian, or colon cancer risk
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism, Skin, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study helps people in Switzerland who already have a known inherited cancer gene change understand what it means for them and their family. It focuses on people with specific known mutations related to hereditary breast/ovarian cancer and Lynch syndrome.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have a known genetic mutation linked to hereditary breast/ovarian cancer or Lynch syndrome
- You have at least one living blood relative who could potentially be offered testing
- You are 18 years or older and able to understand and agree to the study
- You currently live in Switzerland
- You can read and speak one of these languages: German, French, Italian, or English

This study tests a way to help people with inherited cancer gene mutations manage their health, especially if they live in rural areas. You join if you found out about the mutation more than a year ago.
This study tests a program to help families talk about genetic services for Lynch syndrome. It aims to support people who may be at risk but haven't yet had genetic counseling or testing.
This study helps identify people who may have an inherited cancer risk and checks how best to support them. Depending on the group, you may only fill out surveys, or you may also create an app account and possibly provide a DNA sample.
This study tests a tool to help primary care doctors provide better cancer prevention care for people with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) or Lynch syndrome (LS). It aims to ensure you're up-to-date on recommended screenings and preventive steps.
This study is testing a new genetic test (Sophia Genetics assay) to see how well it can identify inherited conditions like breast/ovarian cancer, Lynch syndrome, and intestinal polyposis. Your stored genetic sample may be used to help validate this test.
This study tests a website called Kindred that helps African American families understand genetic cancer risk and genetic testing. You would help researchers learn if this tool helps families talk about and understand hereditary cancer risks like BRCA mutations and Lynch Syndrome.
