Study to teach genetics to men at risk for prostate cancer
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study aims to understand how men at higher risk for prostate cancer understand genetics terms, using an educational video. It may help improve patient education about genetic testing, especially for people who find these terms confusing.

This study tests whether educational support helps Black men with high-risk prostate cancer complete genetic testing. It may make it easier to get genetic results that can guide care for you and your family.
This study tests a new tool to help Black or African American men with prostate cancer understand genetic testing options. The goal is to improve counseling and decision-making about tumor genetic testing.
This study uses interviews and focus groups to learn how to better engage groups who may not have equal access to prostate cancer genetics services. Your experiences can help shape how these services are offered in the future.
This project aims to learn about prostate cancer risk and screening needs in Black or African American adults. You may be asked questions and tested as part of determining who might benefit from prostate screening.
This trial looks at how inherited risk (family history or gene findings) relates to screening and treatment for prostate cancer. If you qualify, you may be offered prostate screening tests and follow-up to see how well risk information predicts next steps.
This study looks at your personal and family risk for prostate cancer and helps decide who should have extra screening like MRI. It may help you find cancer earlier if you are at higher genetic risk.
