Help family members get cancer genetic test results and counseling
Part of Cancer, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study tests a family-centered way to share cancer genetic testing results with close relatives, so more relatives get genetic counseling and testing. It may help your eligible family members understand their risk and get the right next steps.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 18 years old and can understand and speak English
- You have a known cancer-related gene change (a pathogenic or likely pathogenic germline variant)
- You can share contact details for close blood relatives (first-degree relatives) in the U.S. who may qualify
- You have at least two close blood relatives in the U.S. (who are at least 18) who have not had testing for the same known gene change
- You must consent (or your approved consent is on file) so your relatives can be contacted for this study

This study offers free genetic testing to cancer patients and their healthcare providers. It aims to help people who may not have easy access to genetic testing understand their cancer risk.
This study tests different ways to help family members of people with inherited cancer syndromes get genetic testing. It aims to improve cancer prevention and early detection.
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 looks at cancer-related inherited gene changes using blood samples. It may help patients and doctors understand cancer risk and guide treatment planning, especially across different ethnic communities.
This study helps people who carry a known cancer-related gene variant share information with their close family members. We offer free genetic testing to eligible relatives who have not yet been tested.
This study looks at DNA patterns in families where cancer may run in families, to better understand inherited (passed-down) cancer risk. You may be able to help even if you’re not sure whether your cancer is genetic—your family history and, if needed, medical records or tumor samples can be used.
