What participants receive

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

  • Genomind®Professional PGx Express TMGenetic

    The current test includes the analysis of fifteen pharmacodynamic genes and nine pharmacokinetic genes that have been shown in numerous clinical studies to have implications for response to treatments used for depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), bipolar disorder, Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), autism, schizophrenia, chronic pain and substance abuse. The genes assessed by the assay target major hepatic enzymes and key neurotransmitter pathways including serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine and glutamate.

Study groups in NCT03952494
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Intervention groupExperimentalIntervention group will have the PGx test results available via Epic, three days after the biospecimen is received.
Receives: Genetic: Genomind®Professional PGx Express TM
Control groupExperimentalThe control group will be considered in TAU(treatment as usual) group but will have the PGx test results available after 24 weeks. Note: Patient in both the groups will be followed for 24 weeks and will take questionnaires every other week.
Receives: Genetic: Genomind®Professional PGx Express TM

What is being measured

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

  1. Response, as defined by > 50% reduction in Hamilton Depressing Rating Scale ( HAM-D)

    The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale is used for rating the severity of depressive symptoms. Scores range from 0 to 50, with higher scores indicating greater severity of depression. The scoring system is as follows- 0-7 = Normal 8-13 = Mild Depression 14-18 = Moderate Depression 19-23 = Severe Depression > 23 = Very severe Depression.

    Measured: 24 weeks

  2. Remission, as defined by < 8 on Hamilton Depressing Rating Scale ( HAM-D).

    The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale is used for rating the severity of depressive symptoms. Scores range from 0 to 50, with higher scores indicating greater severity of depression. The scoring system is as follows- 0-7 = Normal 8-13 = Mild Depression 14-18 = Moderate Depression 19-23 = Severe Depression > 23 = Very severe Depression.

    Measured: 24 weeks

  3. Conformance between antidepressant medication prescription changes and recommendations from the pharmacogenomics testing

    Conformance is defined as the number of prescriptions that are in agreement with clinical decision support recommendations based on pharmacogenomics test results.

    Measured: 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Self-reported side effects

    FIBSER (Frequency, intensity and burden of side effects rating) questionnaire will be administered to assess the frequency, severity and degree of impairment related to side effects including nausea, headache, vomiting, GI distress, and sexual dysfunction. Frequency of side-effects are rated from 0-6, with 0 signifying no side effects and score of 6 showing that the effects are present all the time. Similarly intensity is also rated from 0-6 with 0 demonstrating no side effects and 6 signifying that the intensity is intolerable. Interference of side effects in day to day function is also rated in the same way. A reading of 0 tells us that there is no impairment of day-to-day functions and a reading of 6 depicts inability to function.

    Measured: 24 weeks

  2. Provider Attitude

    Number of overwritten CDS alerts regarding PGx testing will be used to determine if PGx-related CDS alerts will result in higher provider uptake compared to non-PGx-related CDS.

    Measured: 24 weeks
