About this study

Official title: A Prospective Trial to Assess Clinical Utility and Effectiveness of MyOme's Polygenic Risk Score for Coronary Artery Disease (COMPASS-CAD)

The goal of this study is to assess the benefit to physicians and patients of adding an integrated risk score (IRS) to existing coronary artery risk tools by conducting a randomized prospective study. IRS combines both an individual's coronary artery disease (CAD) polygenic risk score (PRS) and clinical risk factors, like cholesterol levels and age. This study will examine to what extent IRS knowledge impacts physician/provider behavior as well as clinical outcomes including cholesterol levels and incident heart disease.

Read the detailed description

This is a 1:1 randomized controlled trial of participants with no known coronary artery disease, are not on lipid-lowering therapy, and do not have LDL-C over 190mg/dL. Participants will be recruited from cohorts that have been previously genotyped and found to have either elevated or average risk based on a CAD IRS. Participants will be randomized into two equal groups: one group will receive their IRS result for coronary artery disease at baseline, and the other group will receive their ASCVD Pooled Cohorts Equation result at baseline and CAD IRS result approximately 3 years after enrollment. Subject data will be collected for 5 years from the time of enrollment.

Experimental: InterventionExperimentalParticipants will receive their integrated risk score result for coronary artery disease.

No Intervention: ControlNo interventionParticipants will only receive standard of care ASCVD Pooled Cohorts Equation (ASCVD PCE), and disclosure of integrated risk score result will be deferred until 3 years after enrollment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Does receiving an IRS report influence clinical decision making, including the provider's decision to treat with lipid lowering medication or order diagnostic testing?

    Aggregating longitudinal clinical data will be collected to compare the incidence of lipid-lowering medication initiation and cardiac diagnostic testing between the intervention arm which received their integrated risk score and the control group.

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Does receiving an IRS report affect patient clinical measurements, including LDL-C levels?

    Aggregating longitudinal clinical data will be collected to compare the clinical measurements between the intervention arm which received their integrated risk score and the control group.

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Does the IRS identify those at elevated risk for CAD and future ASCVD events?

    Aggregated longitudinal clinical data and patient survey data will be collected to compare patient clinical outcomes in those with a high CAD IRS.

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Does receiving an IRS report affect the incidence of CAD events?

    Aggregated longitudinal clinical data will be collected to compare patient clinical outcomes in those with a CAD IRS reported at baseline and the control group.

    Measured: 5 years

  3. Does receiving an IRS report affect participant understanding of their individual CAD risk?

    Patient survey data will be collected to assess their understanding of their CAD risk.

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Disclosure of integrate risk score for coronary artery disease in people with Coronary Artery Disease and Polygenic Risk Score, run by MyOme at 2 sites 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 6 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Sep 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Does receiving an IRS report influence clinical decision making, including the provider's decision to treat with lipid lowering medication or order diagnostic testing? (time frame: 5 years). The study lists 2 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 16 Sep 2025.
