Feasibility of Recruitment, Perceived Genetic Risk and Susceptibility Beliefs, and Saliva Sample Collection in a Community-Based Prostate Cancer Genetic Risk Pilot Study.

Abstract excerpt

While prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing can reduce mortality, there is potential for over-detection of indolent prostate cancer that would never become clinically important. Thus, research is needed to understand individual genetic risk profiles among unaffected men to help guide personalized PSA screening. This pilot study explored recruitment outcomes, genetic risk perceptions, and willingness to provide...
