Exploring Men s Prostate Cancer Genetic Risk Perceptions

Completed
Conditions
Prostate Cancer
Registration Number
NCT06764992
Lead Sponsor
H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute
Brief Summary

The exploring men's prostate cancer genetic risk perceptions and willingness to give a biospecimen for genetic risk testing study aims to assess prostate cancer genetic risk and susceptibility beliefs among unaffected men of diverse races/ethnicities who are considering undergoing prostate cancer screening and their willingness of men to provide a biospecimen (saliva sample) and test the samples for prostate cancer aggressiveness and determine risk category based on SNP genetic profile.

Study & Design

Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Study Design
Not specified
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Prostate Cancer Genetic Risk and Susceptibility BeliefsUp to 6 Months

Prostate Cancer Genetic Risk and Susceptibility beliefs will be summarized based on single items on the Prostate Cancer Risk Perception Questionnaire.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) of Saliva SamplesUp to 6 Months

Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) of Saliva Samples will be based on genetic profiles from Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs).

Identified as prostate cancer susceptibility loci, genetic risk of developing prostate cancer will be categorized into 5 groups:

Very Low Risk (\< 10%), Low Risk (10-25%) Moderate Risk (25-75%), High Risk (75-90%) or Very High Risk (\>90%).
