Trial summary

Metoprolol is frequently administered to cardiac surgery patients to reduce the incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation (PoAF). Metoprolol is metabolized by the enzyme CYP2D6, which is known to have many mutations that could influence a patient's ability to metabolize the drug. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Preemptive Pharmacogenetic- Guided Metoprolol Management for Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation in Cardiac Surgery: The PREEMPTIVE- Pilot Trial

Metoprolol is frequently administered to cardiac surgery patients to reduce the incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation (PoAF). Metoprolol is metabolized by the enzyme CYP2D6, which is known to have many mutations that could influence a patient's ability to metabolize the drug. In this prospective clinical trial, the investigators will determine the genotype of CYP2D6 for patients undergoing cardiac surgery, provide an altered dosing recommendation for metoprolol, then report the relative effectiveness in managing PoAF for each pharmacogenetic- guided dosing category. The investigators will also explore the effects of personalized metoprolol dosing recommendations on outcomes in hospital length of stay, cost, and provider participation.

What participants receive

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

  • Guided Metoprolol ManagementOther

    CYP2D6 Genotyping: Consented patients will have blood drawn for genotyping prior to surgery. Patients will be classified as poor metabolizers, intermediate metabolizers, extensive (normal) metabolizers, or ultrafast metabolizers.

    Pharmacogenetic- Guided Metoprolol Management: A best practice advisory will be integrated into institutional clinical decision support systems for metoprolol dosing based on metabolic status of each patient.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of post-operative atrial fibrillation

    Incidence of post-operative atrial fibrillation measured with post-operative electrocardiogram or rhythm strip, or at least two of the following: documentation in the progress notes, nursing notes, discharge summary, and change in medication.

    Measured: From the end of anesthesia up to hospital discharge; usually 3-4 days

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Rate of genome tailored prescription changes

    Rate of genome tailored prescription changes as measured by the proportion of patients in whom metoprolol prescription is based on CYP2D6 metabolizer status.

    Measured: From the end of anesthesia up to hospital discharge; usually 3-4 days

  2. Length of hospital stay

    Length of hospital stay (in days) after surgery

    Measured: From end of surgery to hospital discharge; usually 3-4 days

  3. Overall cost of treatment

    Measured: From end of surgery to hospital discharge; usually 3-4 days

  4. Cost of interventions to control or treat post-operative atrial fibrillation

    Measured: From end of anesthesia to hospital discharge; usually 3-4 days

  5. Incidence of adverse drug events

    Measured: From end of anesthesia to hospital discharge; usually 3-4 days

  6. Proportion of clinical decision support tool recommendations that were acknowledged and accepted by provider

    Measured: From end of anesthesia to hospital discharge; usually 3-4 days

  7. Proportion of clinical decision support tool recommendations that were acknowledged but ignored by the provider.

    Measured: From end of anesthesia to hospital discharge; usually 3-4 days

  8. Reasons for non-adherence to recommendations

    Reasons for non-adherence to recommendations; prepopulated choices including 1. clinically inappropriate recommendation 2. provider preference 3. Other (free text option).

    Measured: From end of anesthesia to hospital discharge; usually 3-4 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Guided Metoprolol Management in people with Post-operative Atrial Fibrillation, run by Vanderbilt University Medical Center 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 2 inclusion and 2 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 10 Mar 2023. 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?

Incidence of post-operative atrial fibrillation (time frame: From the end of anesthesia up to hospital discharge; usually 3-4 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03943927, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 10 Mar 2023.
