What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of warfarin related clinical events

    To determine if using warfarin-related pharmacogenetic information in calculating warfarin doses will change the incidence of warfarin-related clinical events, including major hemorrhage and thromboembolic events, at 30 days after initial dose, when compared to warfarin doses calculated without pharmacogenetic data.

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. INR Tests

    Comparison of the number of INR tests performed before warfarin dose stabilization (i.e. two consecutive INR tests within the target range)

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Warfarin Doses

    Comparison of the cumulative warfarin dose necessary to reach warfarin dose stabilization (i.e. two consecutive INR tests within the target range)

    Measured: 90 days

  3. Hemorrhagic Events

    The number of major hemorrhagic adverse events at 60 and at 90 days separately after warfarin initiation

    Measured: 90 days

  4. Minor hemorrhagic events

    The number of minor hemorrhagic adverse events at 30, 60 and at 90 days separately after warfarin initiation

    Measured: 90 days

  5. Major thromboembolic events

    The number of major thromboembolic adverse events at 60 and at 90 days separately after warfarin initiation for

    Measured: 90 days

  6. INR tests

    The percentage of the total INR tests performed in the first 30 days which are out of target range

    Measured: 30 days

  7. SF-12

    The overall, Physical Composite Score (PCS) and Mental Composite Score (MCS) of the SF-12 quality of life questionnaire at 30 days and at 90 days separately after warfarin initiation

    Measured: 90 days

  8. Prescriber adherence

    Prescriber adherence to dosing recommendations through subject interview and comparison of dose recommendation to dose prescribed for the first four doses of warfarin

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Warfarin GenoSTAT Test in people with Anti-coagulation Therapy and DVT, run by Iverson Genetic Diagnostics, Inc. at 56 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Aug 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 56 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of warfarin related clinical events (time frame: 30 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Aug 2015.
