Genetic testing education for Black men with prostate cancer
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study offers genetic testing and counseling to African American cancer survivors. It aims to see if a culturally tailored approach helps more people understand their cancer risk and get the testing they need.
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 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 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 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 tests new educational materials about genetic testing for cancer patients. It aims to find the best ways to explain genetic testing to people from different backgrounds, especially Black, Latino, and non-Latino non-Black communities.
