Phase N/A

Powered by AI

Overview

The purpose of this research study is to see if offering genetic testing for cancer-related genes is feasible and acceptable for patients presenting for gynecology clinic visits, instead of needing to see specialized providers or needing to meet specific criteria. The primary aim to assess the proportion of patients who undergo genetic testing, and the proportion of patients with pathogenic variants.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Female patients between ages of 25-39 years at the time of visit
  2. Receive gynecologic care at an affiliated NYU Langone Health (NYULH) site listed in this protocol.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Personal history of ovarian, fallopian tube, primary peritoneal, or uterine cancers
  2. Previously undergone germline testing for ovarian cancer risk variants (prior commercial saliva-based kits, such as 23andMe, are acceptable)
  3. History of bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy
  4. Visit related to pregnancy or immediately postpartum (within 2 weeks)

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
