About this study

Official title: Randomized Trial of Genotype-guided Versus Standard for Warfarin Dosing

To compare the efficiency and safety between gene-oriented group and standard care group during 90 days of initial warfarin-treatment for requiring anticoagulation patients with valve replacement or atrial fibrillation with or without valvular heart disease。

Read the detailed description

Due to narrow therapeutic window, and individual differences in dosage, inappropriate use of warfarin may lead to serious complications and ineffective. Based on the results of the research on the transformation of warfarin pharmacogenomics, this study investigates the clinical application of gene-directed warfarin dose prediction model through the preset dosage regimen of warfarin during the initial treatment phase. Compared with the conventional treatment, that is to say empirical medication, this study is to verify the feasibility and value of gene-oriented warfarin dose prediction model, in order to establish a practical guidance to optimize the rational use of warfarin treatment program, to enable patients to obtain effective, safe warfarin dose, and to achieve the established anticoagulant strength faster and safer, as the same time, to reduce the times of patients was blood and the incidence of bleeding/embolism, and to save costs and ensure the safety of warfarin clinical medication.

Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Gene-directed dosage of warfarinOther

    the first day given model prediction dose * 1.5 times(<6mg);the second day given model prediction dose;adjusted dose based on INR from the third day

  • standard dosage of warfarinOther

    the first day given 4.5mg; adjusted dose based on INR from the second day

What is being measured

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

  1. therapeutic INR range (TTR) 90

    The percentage of time in therapeutic INR range (TTR) using the number of INRs within the therapeutic range divided by the number of INRs collected, will be assessed at Day90, and the TTR of all patients will be reported.

    Measured: at Day90

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. therapeutic INR range (TTR) 28

    The percentage of time in therapeutic INR range (TTR) using the number of INRs within the therapeutic range divided by the number of INRs collected, will be assessed at Day28, and the TTR of all patients will be reported.

    Measured: at Day28

  2. Time of the first time of the target INR

    Time of the first time for participants to reach the target INR will be collected and reported during the study.

    Measured: 90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Gene-directed dosage of warfarin and standard dosage of warfarin in people with Atrial Fibrillation and Valvular Heart Disease, run by China National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases at 1 site in China.

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 1 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 29 Apr 2022. 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 China. 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?

therapeutic INR range (TTR) 90 (time frame: at Day90). 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 29 Apr 2022.
