Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study is about understanding the use of a genetic test (Myriad Genetics myRisk panel) that analyzes 25 genes related to different hereditary cancer conditions. The investigators hope to learn more about how this type of genetic test is used clinically. The investigators also hope to understand more about the experience of individuals and families who undergoing this test of genetic testing.

- Blood Draw and Baseline Questionnaire: Participants will have their blood drawn for the study and complete a baseline questionnaire about their current cancer screening practices and concern regarding cancer. Patients identified with a mutation in a gene not commonly tested for prior to the advent of multiplex panel testing. This excludes BRCA1, BRCA2, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2, EPCAM, APC, MYH unless a patient tested positive for one of these 9 genes but did not meet clinical criteria for the underlying syndrome (n = 124). These participants will be asked to complete questionnaires for the duration of the study (up to 60 months after enrollment) at 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months, 36 months, 48 months, and 60 months.

- description
- Blood Draw and Baseline Questionnaire: Participants will have their blood drawn for the study and complete a baseline questionnaire about their current cancer screening practices and concern regarding cancer. Patients identified with a variant of unknown significance of any gene of any nonBRCA (BRCA1 and BRCA2) or non-Lynch syndrome gene (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2 and EPCAM). Target accrual is 100. These participants will be asked to complete questionnaires for the duration of the study (up to 60 months after enrollment) at 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months, 36 months, 48 months, and 60 months.
