Rural women get boost in cancer genetic screening trial
NCT ID NCT06760507
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a family history screening program can help more women in rural public health clinics get tested for genetic risks linked to breast and ovarian cancer. About 3,200 women over age 25 will take part. The goal is to see if the program increases the number of women who complete screening and follow up with genetic counseling and testing.
