Study Summary

This trial is studying how effective a video-based intervention is in encouraging participants' families to get tested for BRCA gene mutations. The goal is to reduce the cancer burden by allowing for risk management and reduction.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for individuals who have tested positive for BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutations. It's designed to see if they can encourage their family members to get tested too, using a video-based intervention sent via text.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study is testing the effectiveness of a video message intervention in motivating family members of participants with BRCA gene mutations to undergo genetic testing, potentially aiding in cancer prevention and risk management.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves survey administration and an informational intervention rather than medication or medical procedures, there are no direct physical side effects expected from participation.

2Treatment groups

Experimental Treatment

Active Control

Group I: Arm A (video via text message)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions

Participants receive a 2-minute information-graphic video via text message consisting of misconceptions and issues that may be paramount when discussing mutation status with relatives that they can share with family via text message, email, or social media.

Group II: Arm B (letter via standard U.S. mail)Active Control2 Interventions

Participants receive family letter via U.S. postal service mail consisting of misconceptions and issues that may be paramount when discussing mutation status with relatives.
