Screening study for prostate cancer risk and access
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.

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.
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 tries to personalize prostate cancer care by matching treatment decisions to a person’s specific risk profile. You might be able to join if you have certain types of prostate cancer or a strong family history and meet health-function requirements.
This study looks at how Veterans with advanced prostate cancer make decisions about gene testing and possible targeted treatments, and how patients and caregivers understand the information. It may help by improving decision support for people facing germline and tumor testing choices.
This study looks at whether having a peer veteran help guide conversations about prostate cancer screening (the PSA test) leads to better decisions. It's for male veterans who are due for a routine check-up and haven't had a PSA test recently.
This trial tests whether an alert in your electronic health record helps more people get PSA screening for prostate cancer. If you are a man at average or high risk, this study may help ensure you are screened appropriately.
