Myocardial Infarction Genes (MI-GENES) Study (MI-GENES)

May 2, 2016 updated by: Iftikhar J. Kullo, Mayo Clinic

Myocardial Infarction Genes (MI-GENES) Study - Using Genomic Data to Refine Risk Assessment for Heart Attack

This study is being done to better understand how genetic information might improve assessment of heart attack risk.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This study aims to randomize patients to 2 arms. The first arm will receive the conventional Framingham risk score for coronary heart disease while the intervention arm will receive the genetics-informed risk for coronary artery disease.

The investigators will assess baseline blood lipid levels and follow the 2 arms up to 6 months after randomization. Primary endpoint is change in LDL levels between the 2 arms. Secondary outcomes include blood pressure control, weight, smoking cessation, and other lifestyle modifications.

This trial will help us understand whether coronary artery disease risk derived from genetic information would have a significant impact on patients' perception of coronary artery disease risk and motivate healthy lifestyle modifications that reduce their long term risk.
