Assessing relatives' readiness for hereditary cancer cascade genetic testing.

Genetics in medicine : official journal of the American College of Medical Genetics - 1 Apr 2020

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To explore the readiness of living, untested first-degree relatives (FDRs) to have cascade genetic testing (CGT) for a hereditary predisposition to cancer. METHODS: Adults with a hereditary predisposition to cancer completed an anonymous, online survey about their genetic testing and their FDRs' vital status, awareness of the variant, uptake of CGT, and readiness for CGT among living, untested FDRs using...
