Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The impact of genetic testing1 Year

Current guidelines for cancer screening have limitations, as its mostly age based. Immunosuppression can lead to a increased risk of cancer in the kidney transplant population.

By utilizing a multi gene panel we'll look for the number subjects with positive findings and see how recommendations of care change vs standard of care as recommended by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN). Genetic testing and family history may change the practice regarding cancer screening in subjects undergoing kidney transplant evaluation.
