Communication Preferences for Genome Sequencing Results in Breast Cancer Patients
Abstract
Communication of whole genome sequencing (WGS) results to patients is a key ethical and psychosocial issue, but more work has focused on whether to communicate results than how. Young breast cancer patients (diagnosed at
The specific aims are to:
(1) investigate communication preferences for WGS results among young breast cancer patients; and
(2) administer a survey to young breast cancer patients in order to examine (A) factors affecting communication preferences for WGS results among young breast cancer patients with a strong family history of breast cancer and no identified BRCA1/2 mutation and (B) compare communication preferences for WGS results among subgroups of young breast cancer patients.
