Compass: Prostate Cancer Study for Men Who Have Sex with Men

BC Cancer and University of British Columbia are researching to enhance LGBTQ+ prostate cancer care. Please consider participating in this important study.

Dear Prostate Cancer Patients:

If you have a history of prostate cancer, and are currently over the age of 40, we would like to invite you to participate in our current research study. One hour of your time may influence treatment of future patients. There is a significant knowledge gap concerning sexual function for prostate cancer patients in the men-who-have-sex-with-men (MSM) community, because all of the existing assessment tools are designed for the heterosexual population. The goal of this study is to develop a survey to assess sexual function after prostate cancer treatment specific for MSM. Increased knowledge in this area can help guide future patients in treatment decisions. Your participation will involve completion of a set of questions online. Your response can help us refine this list and develop the survey. No personal information will be collected in the survey and all your response will be kept confidential. This study is being supported by the UBC British Columbia Cancer Agency Research Ethics Board. If you decide to take part, please follow the following link:
