Breaking down barriers: new study seeks to improve prostate cancer genetic services for all
NCT ID NCT07407686
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to understand why some communities, including Black men, transgender individuals, and those with limited healthcare access, are less likely to use prostate cancer genetics services. Researchers will interview about 100 people to identify barriers and then work with community members to create easy-to-understand digital resources. The goal is to improve awareness and participation in genetic testing and screening.
