Cluster Randomized Trial Comparing Interventions to Enhance Genetic Counseling Among Breast Cancer Patients (SCUSF 1102)
A Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Interventions to Enhance Utilization of Genetics Services Among Breast Cancer Patients
RATIONALE: Multi-faceted provider education and decision support intervention will increase the rate of appropriate referral of breast cancer patients at increased risk for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) to genetic counseling.
PURPOSE: This cluster randomized controlled trial will compare active and passive interventions to increase the rate of appropriate genetic counseling referrals of newly diagnosed breast cancer patients at increased risk for HBOC to genetic counseling in the community oncology setting.
Tutkimuksen yleiskatsaus
Yksityiskohtainen kuvaus
Approximately 5-10% of all breast cancer patients have hereditary breast cancer, the majority due to an inherited mutation in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes (BRCA mutation carriers). Breast cancer patients who are BRCA mutation carriers have up to a 65% risk for a new primary breast cancer in the future. Additionally, BRCA mutation carriers have a 10-45% lifetime risk for ovarian cancer.
Effective options to decrease these high future cancer risks are available to breast cancer patients who learn they carry a BRCA mutation - including prophylactic mastectomy and oophorectomy. Prophylactic mastectomy and oophorectomy reduce the risks for future primary breast cancer and ovarian cancer, respectively, by more than 90%. Because of the high risks for future cancer and the opportunity for effective risk reduction among mutation carriers, national guidelines consistently recommend referral of breast cancer patients at increased risk for hereditary breast cancer and ovarian cancer (HBOC) to genetic counseling by a qualified genetics professional. Lack of implementation of this standard of care constitutes an error of omission and jeopardizes patient outcomes.
We propose a cluster randomized controlled trial to compare a "passive intervention" - dissemination of professional guidelines - with an "active intervention" - a multi-faceted provider education and decision support intervention to improve 1) appropriate referral of breast cancer patients at risk for HBOC to genetic counseling in the community cancer center setting and 2) pre-surgical referral among newly diagnosed patients. Ultimately, these results will lead to decreased breast and ovarian cancer incidence and mortality among breast cancer patients and their family members, as well as improved outcomes of and satisfaction with surgical decision-making.

Participant Inclusion Criteria:
- Females 18 years of age or greater
- Newly diagnosed primary breast cancer prior to initial definitive surgical treatment, including In situ and Invasive cancer, Stages 0 - III. Pathologic confirmation of diagnosis is required.
- Able to read and write in English or Spanish
Participant Exclusion Criteria:
- Any previous diagnosis of cancer except for non-melanoma skin cancer
- Stage IV breast cancer

Kokeellinen: Active Provider Intervention
Participating Sites assigned to the active intervention cluster will receive a multi-faceted provider education and decision support intervention to improve 1) appropriate referral of breast cancer patients at risk for HBOC to genetic counseling in the community cancer center setting and 2) pre-surgical referral among newly diagnosed patients.
They will also receive the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines and Commission on Cancer definition of qualified genetics professional.

Rate of appropriate referral of newly diagnosed breast cancer patients at increased risk for HBOC to genetic counseling in Active vs. Passive Intervention Clusters
Aikaikkuna: 1 year post diagnosis
|
Site providers will be randomized and receive either the active or passive genetic counseling intervention.
Post intervention, site providers will maintain a database of all newly diagnosed breast cancer patients that meet the study eligibility criteria.
One year post diagnosis, subjects will be mailed an informed consent form including questionnaires from their providers.
Returned patient questionnaire data along with information provided directly from site providers will be utilized to determine the rate of appropriate referral for genetic counseling.
