Trial Title: Achieving Equity in Genomic Testing for Breast Cancer Through Partner-Led Strategies and Policies

NCT ID: NCT05916378

Condition: Breast Cancer

Conditions: Official terms:
Breast Neoplasms

Conditions: Keywords:
Genomic Testing
Precision Breast Cancer Care
Precision Medicine

Study type: Observational

Overall status: Active, not recruiting

Study design:

Time perspective: Prospective

Summary: The purpose of this study is to identify the barriers, and the extent of said barriers, to genomic testing for breast cancer patients among low-income and minority populations, particularly throughout Northern California. The investigators have created a survey that is available online for any patient with cancer to fill out voluntarily regarding their experiences to date. The survey is available at: https://stanforduniversity.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_7VElf8oesWcB3bE

Detailed description: The study has two main data-collecting phases. In phase 1, the investigators will engage multilevel stakeholders to respond to a survey assessing experience with and perceptions of genomic testing and its accessibility for patients with breast cancer in California. In phase 2, selected and interested survey participants who voluntarily provide their contact information on the survey will be asked to participate in an in-depth 1:1 semi-structured interview to explore disparities in genomic testing for breast cancer more closely. The investigators will then utilize their findings from both phases to present aggregate findings to an Expert Panel and Community Advisory Board and work together to develop policy recommendations. The policy recommendations will then be presented to policy makers, with the aim of identifying sustainable solutions that address breast cancer treatment and outcome disparities throughout Northern California.

Criteria for eligibility:

Study pop:
We expect to recruit 150 participants for enrollment in phase 1. These participants will include 100 patients diagnosed with breast cancer and 50 caregivers. In phase 2, we expect to recruit 55 of our phase 1 survey participants to complete a one-time one-on-one in-depth interview.

Sampling method: Non-Probability Sample
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria: - The patients must be 18 years or older. - Patients who opt in to complete the survey. - Patients must have the capacity to verbally consent for the interview. Exclusion Criteria: - Patients who under the age of 18 years old.
