Brief Summary

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

To find good information about medullary thyroid cancer that is easy to understand and reliable, so researchers aim to design some new educational materials to help.

Detailed Description

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

Primary Objectives

1. To co-develop a culturally-adapted educational tool for the Latino/Latina MTC population using the previously developed MTCEducate.org as a framework. (Phase 1)
2. To test, refine, and produce a culturally adapted educational prototype and is intended to assess participants' understanding after reviewing the decision aid as part of the iterative testing and refinement process (Phase 2)

Secondary Objectives

1. To assess the tool's acceptability post-production among a broader population of Latino(a) MTC participants and caregivers using the Ottawa Acceptability Scale (Phase 3)
2. To disseminate the educational tool to a broader population of Latino(a)s
3. To summarize the clinico-demographics of educational tool users
