An Exploration of Factors Affecting Interest and Uptake of Genetic Testing for Prostate Cancer Susceptibility: The Clinical Application of Genetic Testing for Lower Risk Cancer Predisposition Genes
This study will use a mixed methods approach to follow men as they move through the genetic
testing process, from initial contact through to receiving their genetic testing results. A
questionnaire will be used to measure variables at both baseline and after proceeding
through the testing process. A small cohort of men will be invited to be interviewed to
gather some in depth qualitative data about the issues that have arisen during the study
process.
