About this study

In plain language

This study tests help with getting breast and colon or rectal cancer screening together, compared with help for breast screening alone. For those who qualify, it also tests adding education before a referral for genetic services, which look at inherited cancer risk. It is for Black and/or Hispanic females ages 45–74 who qualify for breast screening and are also due for colon or rectal screening.

The goal of this study is to test bundled familial cancer risk assessment + multicancer (colorectal + breast) vs. single (breast) cancer navigation, using a wait list control for colorectal cancer screening referral and navigation. Among those eligible, this study will test usual care referral to genetic services vs. pretest education + usual care referral. The study also will assess how bundled multicancer navigation works and for whom it is most effective through a multisite, mixed-methods patient- and organization-level process evaluation.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
