Summary
This study looks at the best way to inform close relatives (parents, siblings, children) of people newly diagnosed with colorectal cancer about their possible genetic risk. Some families will have a doctor or healthcare provider reach out to relatives directly, while others will rely on the patient to share the information. The goal is to see which method leads to more relatives getting tested for inherited cancer genes, which could help them take steps to prevent or catch cancer early.
