Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The inclusion of subjects in the GENEPY network follows the genealogical study of a case (index): relatives are identified as potentially at risk. In accordance with the recommendations, but also generally at the wish of the patients (Claes 2003), the index case is then asked to inform its relatives and to propose them to go to an oncogenetic consultation of their choice. If these people reside in the Midi Pyrenees Toulouse oncogenetic consultation is open to them. If following this consultation a mutation is identified or that their genetic risk is considered important, they are proposed to join the GENEPY network for their monitoring.

Who may be able to join

  • people with an identified mutation, predisposing to tumors of the breast / ovary or colon / rectum
  • people resident in the Midi-Pyrénées region

Who cannot join

  • people under 18

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Adhesion to the Network of Care of People at Genetic Risk of Cancer in Midi-Pyrénées (GENEPY)

In order to best meet the needs of all those affected by the genetic risk of cancer in our region, it is important to identify the factors likely to influence the course leading to the GENEPY surveillance network. The aim of this study is to evaluatie the adhesion to the network of care of people at genetic risk of cancer in Midi-Pyrénées (GENEPY).

Read the detailed description

This network has been open since November 2015 for people who are genetically predisposed to breast / ovarian cancer. The extension to digestive pathologies (HNPCC syndrome, PAF) is in progress. It concerns not only the persons carrying a mutation also those belonging to a family without identified mutation but whose risk of predisposition is important.

The GENEPY network is based on a collaboration between oncogenetic consultations in the region and professionals practicing in institutions (private, public) and liberal: general practitioners, gynecologists, radiologists, oncologists, gastroenterologists, psychologists ...

It is therefore a multicentric and multidisciplinary network, which aims to promote the local care of people genetically predisposed (or considered at high risk of genetic predisposition), while ensuring a high level of competence, to guarantee an optimal and equitable care on the whole of Midi Pyrenees.

The diagnosis of a new genetic disease in an individual is likely to have implications for other family members who may themselves be at risk of developing the disease and / or passing it on to their children.

The inclusion of subjects in the GENEPY network follows the genealogical study of a case (index) : relatives are identified as potentially at risk. In accordance with the recommendations, but also generally at the wish of the patients, the index case is then asked to inform its relatives and to propose them to go to an oncogenetic consultation of their choice. If these people reside in the Midi Pyrenees Toulouse oncogenetic consultation is open to them. If following this consultation a mutation is identified or that their genetic risk is considered important, they are proposed to join the GENEPY network for their monitoring.

    The inclusion of subjects in the GENEPY network follows the genealogical study of a case (index): relatives are identified as potentially at risk. In accordance with the recommendations, but also generally at the wish of the patients (Claes 2003), the index case is then asked to inform its relatives and to propose them to go to an oncogenetic consultation of their choice. If these people reside in the Midi Pyrenees Toulouse oncogenetic consultation is open to them. If following this consultation a mutation is identified or that their genetic risk is considered important, they are proposed to join the GENEPY network for their monitoring.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Adhesion to the GENEPY network

    Network membership rate : comparison between the number of relatives who received the invitation and the number of them who joined the network.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Age of relatives

    Age of the relative of the patient who answered the questionnaire

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Sex of relatives

    sex of the relative of the patient who answered the questionnaire

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Place of residence of the relatives

    distance from the offer of care and level of deprivation (for the relative of the patient who answered the questionnaire)

    Measured: 1 day

  5. Proximity to the index case

    relationship of the relatives with the index case according to the latter contact

    Measured: 1 day

  6. Cancer status Communication

    Patient's agreement to communicate about his illness to his relative

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. People satisfaction

    satisfaction of people who have joined the network (scale of values by questionnaire)

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Practionners satisfaction

    satisfaction of general practitioners (scale of values by questionnaire)

    Measured: 1 year
