Condition: Hereditary Cancer Syndrome · Sponsor: University of Illinois at Chicago
The goal of this clinical trial is for researchers to compare the effectiveness of a mainstreamed model of genetic testing (MGT) with an enhanced standard of care model (SOC+) on the uptake of genetic testing among at-risk patients in an urban Federally Qualified Health Center (primary care) setting using a hybrid-effectiveness study design. Aim 1 is to compare the effectiveness of MGT and SOC+ interventions on the uptake of genetic testing among patients receiving primary care in an urban federally qualified health center (FQHC) system using a randomized trial study design. The hypothesis is that the uptake of testing will be higher among patients receiving services through the MGT compared with the SOC+ model. Aim 2 is to evaluate the implementation outcomes (acceptability, feasibility and sustainability) and the barriers and facilitators of cancer genetic service delivery approaches within primary care at FQHCs via qualitative interviews with patients, primary care providers and clinic staff, and organizational leaders, guided by the Explore, Prepare, Implement, Sustain (EPIS) implementation framework. The study will take place at four community health clinics that are part of a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) network in Chicago. Each clinic will use one of two ways of providing cancer genetic services: an enhanced standard of care model that includes patient navigation support (SOC+), or a mainstream genetic testing model (MGT) in which primary care providers …
