Culturally Adapting an Intervention to Increase Genetic Testing in African American Cancer Survivors

A Community-Engaged Approach to Culturally Adapting an Intervention to Increase Uptake of Genetic Testing Among African American Cancer Survivors

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 23 Jun 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to culturally adapt an educational genetic counseling intervention to increase the uptake in genetic counseling and testing among African Americans at risk for heredity cancers. With the help of community stakeholders and clinical genetic professionals the investigators will: * adapt and refine a culturally relevant online educational genetic counseling program for at-risk African Americans * Test the effects of the educational program * collaborate with community leaders and clinical genetic professionals to translate study findings, develop a road map for dissemination to the community, and identify barriers to prepare for future trials. Participants from Detroit Research on Cancer Survivor group will be offered enrollment. Once consent is obtained, questionnaires will be completed before an online genetic counselling intervention immediately after, and at 3 months
