Pharmacogenetic Panel to Prevent Adverse Drug Reactions in Daily Primary Care Practice: (PREPARE-Mayo)

October 10, 2025 updated by: Isa J. Houwink, Mayo Clinic

A Multi-gene Pharmacogenetic Panel to Prevent Adverse Drug Reactions in Daily Primary Care Practice: Open-label, Mayo Clinic Multisite (Mayo Clinic Health System-Rochester Primary Care), Controlled, Implementation Study Taking the Results of the PREPARE Study Into Minnesota (PREPARE-Mayo)

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the implementation of pre-emptive pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing of a panel of clinically relevant PGx markers, to guide the dose and drug selection for 39 commonly prescribed drugs, will result in an overall reduction in the number of clinically relevant drug-genotype associated ADRs which are causally related to the initial drug of inclusion (referred to as 'index drug').

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR)
Time Frame: 48 weeks
The count of participants who experience any of the following ADR's: muscle aches, falling, tripping, fainting, palpations, emotional changes, or physical changes
48 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
PREPARE-MAYO Clinicians' and pharmacists' Questionnaire.
Time Frame: 48 weeks
The 29-item PREPARE-MAYO Clinicians' and pharmacists' Questionnaire measures the Experience and Attitude, Knowledge, Knowledge testing and Needs assessment of clinicians and pharmacists. Each item is scored from 1 (disagree) to 4 (agree). Total possible scores range from 29 to 116, with lower scores indicating less knowledge and higher scores indicating more knowledge.
48 weeks
Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS-10) Global Health Questionnaire
Time Frame: 48 weeks
The 10-item PROMIS Global Health measures general, physical, mental and social health. Each item is scored from 1 (poor health) to 5 (excellent health). Total possible scores range from 10 to 50, with lower scores indicating worse state of health and higher scores indicating greater state of health.
48 weeks
