Can simple strategies boost genetic testing for cancer patients?
NCT ID NCT07307664
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at ways to increase genetic testing for people with breast, pancreatic, or colorectal cancer. Researchers will try different methods—like training doctors, giving feedback, and improving electronic health records—to see what helps oncology teams order more tests. About 1,000 healthcare providers will take part over 18 months. The goal is to make sure more patients get the genetic information they need for better treatment decisions.
