Observational Study for Early Cancer Detection
This observational study, called "Strategic Targeting for Optimal Prevention of Cancer," aims to understand the benefits of using genetic testing to assess your risk for hereditary cancers. Researchers will collect data from individuals aged 65 or older who have already undergone genetic testing (using a buccal swab, or cheek swab) for hereditary cancer based on their doctor's recommendation. The genetic tests look for changes in genes like ATM, BRCA1, BRCA2, and TP53, which are linked to an increased risk of certain cancers. The main goal is to see how this genetic information helps doctors guide preventative measures and potentially lead to earlier detection and treatment of cancer. This study plans to include 120,000 participants.
- Study design
- This is an observational study, meaning researchers will collect data from existing medical records rather than giving you a new treatment. It aims to include 120,000 participants.
- What's involved
- You would not undergo any new procedures or tests as part of this study. Your existing medical information, including results from hereditary cancer genetic testing ordered by your doctor, would be collected.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- The primary endpoints for this study, which involve genomic cancer screening, are measured at 120 days.
