About this study
This will be a randomized, open-labeled pilot pragmatic clinical trial. Patients undergoing arthroplasty surgery will be recruited from the University of Florida (UF) Health Gainesville and the Villages Orthopedic clinics for CYP2D6 pharmacogenetic testing to manage post-surgical pain. Patients will be randomized 2:1 to either usual care or genotype-guided care. The aims of the study were to: 1) test the feasibility of a genotype-guided opioid prescribing approach for patients undergoing an outpatient surgical procedure, a group at high risk for persistent opioid use; and 2) evaluate the effect of genotype-guided post-surgical pain management on pain control and opioid prescribing.
Read the detailed description
This study was a randomized, open-label, type 2 hybrid implementation effectiveness trial conducted to test the hypothesis that CYP2D6 genotype-guided management of post-surgical pain 1) was feasible, and 2) reduced the use of codeine, tramadol, hydrocodone, and oxycodone in Poor Metabolizers (PMs), Intermediate Metabolizers (IMs), and Ultrarapid metabolizers (UMs). In addition to the reduced use of opioids listed above, we aimed to see if participants had improved post-operative pain control in PMs/IMs and reduced Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Schedule II (C-II) opioids in Normal Metabolizers (NMs). Patients scheduled to undergo arthroplasty surgery were recruited from the UF Health Gainesville and the Villages Orthopedic clinics. Patients were randomized 2:1 to a genotype-guided versus usual care approach. For patients with CYP2D6 PM, IM or UM phenotype based on genotype or drug interactions, a recommendation to avoid hydrocodone, tramadol, codeine, and oxycodone were made. In NMs, tramadol was recommended, given evidence of its lower potential addiction risk than C-II opioids. Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) measures were administered at baseline (within 30 days of surgery) and 2 weeks ± 4 days post-surgery for patients in each arm. Pain scores and assessments of physical functioning, emotional functioning, and mobility from the PROMIS measures and utilization of pain medications during the 2-week period following surgery were also compared between groups.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
CYP2D6-guided opioid therapyGenetic
Using a standardized consult note, recommendations were made to avoid tramadol, hydrocodone, codeine, and oxycodone in PMs, IMs, and UMs and to use an alternative opioid (e.g. morphine, hydromorphone) or non-opioid (e.g. NSAID). Consideration of tramadol as the first-line opioid will be recommended for NMs.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| CYP2D6-guided opioid therapy | Active comparator | Participants randomized to the CYP2D6-guided arm will have their CYP2D6 genotyping completed prior to surgery (in the absence of any genotyping error) with results reported in the electronic health record (EHR). Patients will be categorized as CYP2D6 PM, IM, NM, or UM based on CYP2D6 genotype/activity score and FDA guidance on drug interactions. Strong inhibitors (e.g. bupropion, fluoxetine, paroxetine) phenoconvert patients to PMs, with moderate inhibitors (e.g. duloxetine, fluvoxamine) reducing CYP2D6 activity scores by 50%. Receives: Genetic: CYP2D6-guided opioid therapy |
| Usual Care | No intervention | Participants randomized to the usual care arm will have their DNA collected at the start of the study and stored at the lab until after they have completed their surgery and the 2-week follow-up, at which time, their sample was genotyped with the results reported in the EHR. |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Percentage of Patients Who Agreed to Participate
The feasibility of clinical implementation was measured by the percentage of approached patients who agreed to be the study. This was measured by the number of patients approached and the number of patients who enrolled in the study.
Measured: 12 months
Percentage of Participants With a Clinical Phenotype Warranting Alternative Therapy
The feasibility of implementing a genotype-guided opioid prescribing approach for participants undergoing an elective surgical procedure was analyzed by the percentage of participants in the genotype-guided arm and usual care arm with a high-risk CYP2D6 phenotype. CYP2D6 phenotypes were based on CYP2D6 genotype and phenoconversion. High-risk CYP2D6 phenotypes were poor metabolizers (PM), intermediate metabolizers (IM), ultrarapid metabolizers (UM), and ranged phenotypes such as normal to ultrarapid metabolizers and intermediate to ultrarapid metabolizers.
Measured: An average of 2 weeks after genotype sample collection
Percentage of Participants in the Genotype-guided Arm for Whom a Clinical Phenotype-guided Recommendation Was Accepted by the Clinician
The feasibility of clinical implementation was measured by the percentage of participants in the genotype-guided arm for whom a clinical phenotype-guided recommendation was accepted by the clinician. Study recommendations were considered accepted for participants with a high-risk phenotype if an alternative opioid (e.g., hydromorphone, morphine) was prescribed. For CYP2D6 normal metabolizers (NM), consult recommendations were accepted if tramadol was prescribed. Participants were typically prescribed a tramadol-based regimen where in most cases hydrocodone, or another opioid, was prescribed concomitantly with tramadol as is usual practice at the clinics where participants were enrolled. Participants whose genotype resulted after the preoperative appointment were excluded from the analysis of acceptance of consult recommendations. Data for this outcome were only collected from participants in the genotyped-guided arm with CYP2D6 results returned prior to the preoperative appointment.
Measured: An average of 2 months after genotype results returned
Opioid Utilization
Opioid consumption was calculated as the difference between participant-reported opioid pills prescribed at the preoperative appointment and opioid pills remaining at the 2-week time point. This difference was calculated for each opioid and then expressed as morphine milligram equivalents (MME) using standard conversion factors and the medication strength of the prescribed opioid analgesic. If a participant was prescribed multiple opioids, MMEs were calculated for each opioid and then summed to give a total MME value.
Measured: 2 weeks after surgery
Secondary outcomes (1)
Composite Pain Intensity
Composite pain intensity was compared between the genotype-guided arm and usual care arm 2 weeks after surgery. The first two scales in the PROMIS Pain Intensity item bank assess pain intensity utilizing a 7-day recall period (items include the phrase "the past 7 days") while the third scale asks the patient to rate their pain intensity "right now." Each of the 3 scales (worst pain, average pain, and current pain) used to calculate the composite pain intensity score has a range of 1 to 5, with the following text assigned to the numeric scale, 1 -"had no pain", 2 -"mild", 3 -"moderate", 4 -"severe", and 5 -"very severe." The mean composite pain intensity ranges from 1-5. The higher the composite pain score, the more pain and thus worse outcomes.
Measured: 2 weeks after surgery

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?
Percentage of Patients Who Agreed to Participate (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
