April 5, 2019 updated by: Imad Absah, Mayo Clinic

The Utility of Pharmacogenetic Testing in Managing Children With Persistent Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Despite Therapy

This study will use a 22 gene pharmacogenomics panel on 30 children with persistent Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) who have not responded to therapy.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

This study will assess the clinical utility of pharmacogenomics testing in the clinical management of children with refractory GERD, despite adequate therapy and the role of pharmacogenomics in selecting the right acid suppressive therapy based on each patient's symptoms and pharmacogenomics results.
