This study aims to understand how African American and rural White men at risk for localized prostate cancer (cancer that hasn't spread) understand genetic information related to their prognosis (the likely course of a disease). The study uses focus groups to explore how men comprehend this genetic technology. Researchers will also look at how an educational video about genetics affects how patients and caregivers talk about genetic information. The goal is to make sure that new genetic information helps all men with prostate cancer, especially those who might face health disparities. This study is currently unclear on its recruitment status and plans to enroll 90 participants.

Study design

This is an interventional study that will enroll 90 participants. It uses focus group analyses to understand genetic literacy.

What's involved

You would participate in focus group discussions. Your genetic literacy will be measured at baseline, before an intervention, and immediately after the intervention.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

Genetic literacy is measured at baseline, pre-intervention, and immediately after the intervention. No further follow-up is specified.
