Clinical Impact of the Antidepressant Pharmacogenomic Algorithm in an Outpatient Therapy-based Clinical Setting (HAMM)

May 17, 2019 updated by: Daniel K. Hall-Flavin, Mayo Clinic

A Pilot Study for the Evaluation of the Clinical Impact of the Antidepressant Pharmacogenomic Algorithm in an Outpatient Therapy-based Clinical Setting

The Mayo Clinic psychiatric pharmacogenomic team has developed a pharmacogenomic algorithm that has been designed to improve the effectiveness and safety of antidepressant medications by providing guidance in medication selection and appropriate dosing. This algorithm has been incorporated into a new genotyping interpretative report. This report is now available from AssureRx. The pharmacogenomic algorithm is based on genotyping both copies of four informative genes. These four genes are: 1) the Cytochrome P450 2D6 gene; 2) the Cytochrome P450 2C19 gene; 3) the Serotonin Transporter gene (SLC6A4); and 4) the Serotonin 2A receptor gene (5HTR2A). Though this algorithm is not yet part of the universal standard of care, Mayo clinicians have found it helpful in guiding treatment decisions at Mayo Clinic Rochester.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The proposed pilot study is designed to evaluate the clinical impact of the interpretive report in an outpatient behavioral health clinic in St. Paul, Minnesota. While the ultimate goal of this project is to show an improvement in patient outcomes, this pilot study will be used to evaluate the feasibility of introducing the pharmacogenomic algorithm to a new setting that does not routinely use the algorithm. Secondary outcome data will be collected to generate meaningful estimates of the magnitude of potential treatment effects. The study will consist of two phases, each enrolling 2530 subjects. In Phase 1, consecutive patients will be prospectively monitored to observe standard practice. Patients will be given the option to receive genotyping and those that agree will have blood drawn. However, the results of the genotyping and algorithm will not be released until all phase 1 patients have completed study visits.. Subsequently, in Phase 2, also enrolling 3025 subjects, the results of the genotyping and algorithm will be made available immediately for additional consecutive prospectively monitored patients. Patients will be prospectively monitored in the same fashion as Phase 1. The results of the study will be used to perform preliminary analyses and subsequent fully powered multi-site trials will be planned based on the results of this study.

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
