Tumor Genomic Pre-test Counseling Tool for Black or African-American Men With Prostate Cancer
Conditions
Prostate Cancer, Prostate Cancer MetastaticSummary
The overall goal of the study is to improve equitable delivery of pre-Tumor genetic testing (TGT) counseling tool for Black or African American men with metastatic prostate cancer and evaluating the tool for implementation.
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
Stage 1: To evaluate education quality of the intervention in Black or African American men with prostate cancer.
Stage 2: To evaluate feasibility of the TGT intervention among Black or African American men with prostate cancer
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
Stage 1:
1. To evaluate completeness of the intervention content.
2. To identify barriers and facilitators for using the intervention.
Stage 2:
1. To evaluate the acceptability of the intervention among Black or African American men with prostate cancer.
2. To evaluate change in participant knowledge about tumor genetic testing among Black or African American men with prostate cancer.
3. To evaluate change in patient attitudes toward tumor genetic testing among Black or African American men with prostate cancer.
4. To evaluate change in participant expectations of tumor genetic testing among Black or African American men with prostate cancer.
5. To evaluate patient perspectives on the intervention.
6. To evaluate the rate of TGT among Black or African American men with prostate cancer who have received the tumor genetic pre-test counseling tool.
OUTLINE:
This is a two-stage study. In Stage 1, Adult Black or African American men with metastatic prostate cancer who have not made a decision about TGT, or who have decided to undergo TGT, or patients who have decline TGT about tumor genetic testing will participate in development by answering questionnaires and utilizing the pilot application for up to 60 days. The investigators will then refine the tool to be piloted in Stage 2.
Stage 2: A pilot study of participants who are planning to have a discussion about undergoing tumor genetic testing with their oncology provider will be invited to join and utilize the tool, and answer questionnaires about the tool.

Study Plan
Stage 1: Tool Development
EXPERIMENTAL
Participants will participate in a semi-structured qualitative interview either by phone, video conference or in-person. A trained interviewer will interview eligible, consenting participants using a semi-structured interview guide to meet objectives. The interview guide is based on The Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool (PEMAT) and the COM-B (capability (C), opportunity (O), and motivation (M))/Behaviour Change Wheel (BCW) framework and will be used to determine an implementation strategy. The interview will be audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed.

Stage 1: Tool Implementation (Pilot Study)
EXPERIMENTAL
Participants will receive the tumor genetic pre-test counseling tool informed by results and themes identified in Stage 1. Participants will receive the non-therapeutic intervention, a pre-TGT counseling tool, and complete pre- and post-intervention surveys and a attend a brief post-intervention interview.
