Video education may boost informed genetic testing choices in cancer patients
NCT ID NCT07090109
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Sep 11, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study looks at whether an educational video can help people with certain cancers make informed choices about genetic testing. Participants will take a survey, watch a short video, and then take another survey to see if their knowledge and attitudes changed. The goal is to see if the video helps them decide whether to pursue genetic testing for hereditary cancer risks.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- genetic testing education video
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that a simple video helps patients make informed decisions about genetic testing, potentially improving care for hereditary cancers.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage study with only 200 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It measures knowledge and attitudes, not direct health outcomes.
