简要总结
Currently, there is no clear legal or ethical guidance about how researchers and IRBs ought to proceed when the research participant in a biobank is deceased and there is clinically relevant information that could be disclosed to family members. This study is designed to test a procedure offering genetic information to family members of research participants who participated in a pancreatic cancer biobank in a Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) -compliant design.
详细描述
To develop, prototype, and evaluate a novel procedure for offering probands' genetic results to family members. The intervention is to offer a deceased research participant's actionable germline genetic research finding, and depending upon the choice made by the next of kin, a disclosure of the research finding by a genetic counselor in a family conference call. Using mixed methods (quantitative and qualitative), the investigators will assess decision making, family communication, and actions and responses in individuals from families in which a proband is known to have a deleterious germline mutation in one of several known cancer susceptibility genes.

结局指标
主要结局
Uptake of disclosure invitation
时间窗: 6 months
The primary outcome is: relative proportions of individuals who, when offered genetic results of a deceased family member who participated in a biobank study, will decide to learn those results. Uptake will be a binary outcome (Yes/No). We will enumerate the number of invited participants who choose to learn results and who choose not to learn results.
