Summary

This study looked at whether giving a 'disclosure toolkit' to people with BRCA gene mutations helps them share their genetic test results with family members who may also be at risk. Researchers enrolled 52 adults with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations and tracked how often they told relatives and whether those relatives then got tested themselves. The goal was to find better ways to communicate cancer risk within families.
