Official Title: Genetic Testing in African Americans Towards Universal Paired Tumor/Germline Genetic Testing in Solid Tumor Patients With Specific Gynecological Malignancies
Brief Summary:
This is a pilot/feasibility study to conduct genetic testing using tumor/blood samples of African American and Caucasian patients with ovarian and endometrial cancer following surgery at AU Health Medical Center.The aim of the pilot/feasibility study is to sequence a panel of cancer genes on paired tumor/blood (germline) samples of patients with ovarian and endometrial tumors at a two-week time point following surgery at AU Medical Center.While paired testing of tumor and blood (germline)…
