update on Gay Men with Prostate Cancer Study

Researchers at the Boston University School of Public Health want to interview gay and straight men who have been treated for prostate cancer to learn more about their healthcare experiences. This will not be a survey interview but an open conversation about your experiences. If you:

• Are an English-speaking gay man

• Age 50+

• Live in the United States

• Were treated for prostate cancer at least 12 months ago

Then we would love to hear about your experiences! All interviews will last approximately 60-90 minutes and are 100% anonymous and confidential. The results from this research study will be used to help educate prostate cancer patients and healthcare providers in the future. Your participation is voluntary. You can refuse to answer any question or stop the interview at any time.

If you would like to participate or obtain more information about this research study, please contact Don Allensworth-Davies at 617-638-5816.

You may obtain further information about your rights as a research subject by calling the Office of the Institutional Review Board of Boston University Medical Center at 617-638-7207.
