Community-Based Health Coach for Access to Germline Genetic Testing Among African American Men With Prostate Cancer
Sponsor: University of California, San Francisco
Summary
This clinical trial studies barriers to genetic testing in African American men with prostate cancer and whether tailored, culturally relevant genetic testing education provided by a community-based health coach is beneficial in improving knowledge, attitudes, and awareness of genetic testing. Information gained from this study, may help researchers better understand and learn more about how to increase access to germline genetic testing in underrepresented populations.
