About this study

Official title: Assessing Feasibility and Utility of Enhancing Medication Therapy Management With Pharmacist-Delivered Pharmacogenetic Testing

This study aims to investigate the benefit and feasibility of providing pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing as part of a standard medication therapy management (MTM) session for patients taking multiple medications, a high-risk population for adverse drug reactions and non-response. Research participants will attend two MTM sessions and undergo PGx testing to inform the MTM plan. Participants will also complete 2 surveys pre and post-MTM/PGx testing. Data analysis will assess the impact of MTM/PGx testing on recommendations for drug dosing, clinical outcomes, patient satisfaction, and feasibility of service delivery. Safety issues are minimal with the primary risks being associated with loss of confidentiality, typical discomfort associated with acquiring blood samples, and genetic discrimination.

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient satisfaction with MTM and PGx

    This will be assessed by a quantitative survey

    Measured: 3 months after completion of MTM2

  2. Change in clinical biomarkers associated with drug therapy

    Changes in biomarkers before and after MTM/PGx will be measured. Biomarkers of study group will be compared to chart-review control

    Measured: baseline and 2 months

  3. Number of recommended drug selection/dosing adjustments

    Drug selection/doing changes will be compared between study population and chart-review controls

    Measured: approximately 9 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Physician time to perform MTM and PGx

    Measured: end of study, approx. 9 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MTM with PGx in people with Pharmacogenetics and Medication Therapy Management, run by Duke University at 1 site 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 4 inclusion and 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Patient satisfaction with MTM and PGx (time frame: 3 months after completion of MTM2). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 20 Apr 2015.
