Summary

This study looks at whether having a trained peer navigator—someone who guides patients through the process—helps African American men with prostate cancer that has spread understand and complete genetic testing. Genetic testing is important for treatment decisions, but many African American men face barriers like lack of awareness, mistrust, or cost. The study will compare men who get a peer navigator to those who don't, to see if it improves engagement and reduces confusion.
