Help for people with inherited cancer risk genes
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism, Skin, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older
- You have had genetic counseling recently (timing depends on the group)
- Your test results include certain inherited risk genes (BRCA1, BRCA2, and/or Lynch syndrome)
- If you join the app-and-sample group: you must consent and sign up for a secure Healthy Oregon Project (HOP) app account
- If you join the sample group: you may be asked to submit a DNA sample
- For the in-person cancer-related group: you must have a cancer type that gets reported to the National Cancer Institute and a health visit within the last 12 months
