Input: In this review update, we included five new trials, bringing the total number of included studies to eight. The included trials (pertaining to 10 papers), provided data on 1973 participants and assessed the impact of cancer genetic risk assessment on outcomes including perceived risk of inherited cancer, and psychological distress. This review suggests that cancer genetic risk-assessment services help to reduce distress, improve the accuracy of the perceived risk of breast cancer, and increase knowledge about breast cancer and genetics. The health professional delivering the risk assessment does not appear to have a significant impact on these outcomes. This review found favourable outcomes for patients after risk assessment for familial breast cancer. However, there were too few papers to make any significant conclusions about how best to deliver cancer genetic risk-assessment services. Further research is needed assessing the best means of delivering cancer risk assessment, by different health professionals, in different ways and in alternative locations.
Output:

This review included eight trials (10 papers) which covered the process of risk assessment for familial breast cancer. These focused on the psychosocial impact on patients, as well as other outcomes and aspects of service delivery, and provided data on 1973 participants. Due to the limited number of trials, this review found insufficient evidence to make any firm conclusions about the best way to deliver risk-assessment services for individuals concerned about a family history of breast cancer. All eight included studies did, however, demonstrate improvements in psychological well-being and a decrease in the levels of cancer worry as a result of the risk-assessment service. Although limited, the findings of this review suggest that cancer genetic risk-assessment services can help to reduce distress, improve the accuracy of the individual's perceived risk of breast cancer, and increase knowledge about breast cancer and genetics. Existing evidence suggests that such services do not cause patients any harm and, in the short-term, can have a positive effect by helping to ease distress and decrease cancer worry. From this review, it does not appear that the health professional delivering the risk assessment has a significant impact on these outcomes.
