BWHS RoR Trial Summary

This trial examines the efficiency of an online program to provide genetic results to African American women, helping to provide personal health information & increase access to precision medicine.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for African American women who were part of the BWHS breast cancer sequencing project. It's not open to those with uncertain genetic test results or known cognitive impairments.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests an online self-guided program for returning genetic results related to certain cancers, comparing it with follow-up by a genetic counselor. The goal is to find scalable ways to share health information effectively.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves informational interventions rather than medical treatments, traditional physical side effects are not applicable. However, participants may experience stress or anxiety from learning about their genetic risks.
