New tool aims to boost genetic testing for prostate cancer patients
NCT ID NCT07377006
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at what helps or hinders prostate cancer patients from completing genetic testing. Researchers will develop and test a decision support tool to educate patients and help them decide about testing. The goal is to increase testing rates, which can guide treatment and identify at-risk family members. About 108 patients from Lyndon B. Johnson Hospital will take part.
