Scalable Communication Modalities for Returning Genetic Research Results

Testing Scalable Communication Modalities for Returning Breast Cancer Genetic Research Results to African American Women

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 1 Apr 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Efforts to examine the utility of alternate modalities for genetic results disclosure has widespread implications for how precision medicine research might yield direct health benefits for study participants. This study will examine the efficacy of an online self-guided program to return genetic results to a racial minority cohort population. Study results will provide empirical evidence on the effectiveness of alternate modalities for genetic results return, inform ongoing efforts to establish scalable approaches for effective return of genetic research results, and increase access to personal health information among African American women.
