Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary aim of this study is to determine if the addition of an individual polygenic risk score (PRS) in addition to the Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Tool (BCRAT) or Tyrer-Cuzick (IBIS) score will aid women at risk of breast cancer in making a decision to take (or not take) medications to prevent breast cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a minimal risk prospective multisite study with a single arm incorporating the PRS into a standard breast cancer risk reduction consultation, followed by annual surveys over 10 years to determine if and how the availability of the PRS influenced patient decisions regarding preventive medicine and medication compliance. Because women know beforehand that the PRS is pending, study participants will be advised that a final decision to take preventive medicine must be deferred until after the PRS results are made available. Nevertheless, a survey of understanding of risk and benefit and assessment of willingness to take preventive medicine will be done prior to receiving the PRS results and then another survey will be completed after receiving the PRS score.

PRS

Providing polygenic risk score (PRS)

Polygenic Risk Score

Intervention Type GENETIC

A Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) is a blood based genetic test which assesses 300 common breast cancer susceptibility loci (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms). The PRS has been retrospectively validated and categorizes women into three categories of lifetime risk of developing breast cancer: Low Risk (\<15% lifetime risk), Above Average Risk (15 to 40%), and high risk (\>40 %).
