Summary

This study will test a remote approach to help people who may be at higher risk for pancreatic cancer learn about and decide whether to get genetic testing and a blood test that looks for signs of several cancers (MCED testing). The study is focused on Black, Latino/a, and Medicaid-enrolled individuals who may have had less access to cancer genetics and early detection services. About 80 participants, who reside in Massachusetts, will be assigned by chance to receive either online education alone or online education plus a phone call with a trained educator from the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN). After the education, participants can choose whether or not to have genetic testing and/or MCED testing. The main goal is to learn whether this approach is practical to carry out, acceptable to participants, and delivered as planned. Participants will complete 3 surveys during study participation.
