The objective of this protocol is to characterize cancer patients' responses to learning their secondary findings arising from tumor genomic profiling, and the process and outcomes of their decisions to communicate these results to their families.
For Phase 1 of this study, the investigators will conduct a prospective, observational study with cancer patients undergoing tumor genomic profiling (n = 300) and their family members (anticipated n ≈ 150). Data collection will occur through an embedded mixed methods design, in which both quantitative (i.e., survey) and qualitative (i.e., semi-structured interview) data are collected at the same timepoint in order to obtain a more complete understanding of specific processes and outcomes.
They will be recruited from those who already enrolled in protocol #12-245, and who agree to receive their secondary findings through Consent Part C of this existing protocol.
For Phase 2 of this study, participants (n=500) who have received pathogenic secondary findings through protocol #12-245 will be recruited.
For Phase 3, efforts will be expanded from the adult populations explored in the preceding phases to the experiences of patients affected by pediatric cancers and their families. Cross-sectional mixed methods data from AYA survivors of pediatric cancers (n=50) and adult caregivers of survivors of pediatric cancer (n=50) will be collected.

Inclusion Criteria:
Patients (Phase I):
Family members (Phase I):
Patients (Phase 2):
AYA Survivors of Pediatric Cancers (Phase 3):
Adult Caregivers of Survivors of Pediatric Cancers (Phase 3):
18 years of age or older
Are the caregiver of a child who was treated for pediatric cancer (i.e., any cancer diagnosed before age 18). Caregiver status is based on either: 1) nomination as such by a young adult survivor (i.e., age 18+), 2) having consented on behalf of a minor child (i.e., age <18) to MSK IRB protocol
#12-245 Part A and C plus self-reported confirmation that s/he is the caregiver for the child, or 3) nomination by the adult who consented on behalf of a minor child (i.e., age <18) to MSK IRB protocol #12-245 Part A and C plus self-reported confirmation that s/he is the caregiver for the child
That child is currently alive and at least 1 year post-treatment for pediatric cancer (i.e., any cancer diagnosed before age 18)
Has consented on behalf of that child, or that child consented, to MSK IRB protocol #12-245, Consent Part A and C
That child received pathogenic secondary findings as a result of MSK IRB protocol #12-245, Consent Part C as per EMR and/or CGS healthcare provider report
Participated in a CGS consultation following receipt of secondary findings
English-fluent; the surveys were designed and validated in English and are not currently available in other languages. Translation of questionnaires into other languages would require reestablishing the reliability and validity of these measures. Therefore, participants must be able to communicate in English to complete the surveys
