Using breast cancer as an example, we explored the potential impact that a highly predictive genetic test could have on the design and analysis of cancer prevention trials. We discuss three situations in this article: 1) trials that are in progress when the genetic test first becomes available as a research tool but is not available for general use, 2) trials in progress when the genetic test becomes generally...
