Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include cancer patients who are part of the EXOMA2 study and are fluent in French.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who have previously undergone oncogenetic consultations or those with cognitive impairments may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This study investigates how cancer patients prefer to receive genetic information prior to undergoing theranostic exome analysis. It involves observing patient-physician communication during consultations and conducting interviews with patients to gather insights on their preferences. The study aims to enhance understanding of how information is conveyed and comprehended, ensuring that patients are well-informed about their treatment options. Participants will be drawn from the EXOMA2 patient file at Dijon University Hospital.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could improve patient understanding and satisfaction regarding genetic information related to their cancer treatment.
How similar studies have gone: While this approach is innovative in its focus on patient preferences for genetic information, similar studies have shown the importance of effective communication in healthcare settings.
