Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The overall goal of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a widely available and widely used combinatorial pharmacogenomic (PGx) test for the treatment of major depressive disorder. Pharmacogenomic tests use genetic information to guide medication treatment decisions. The tests inform clinicians and patients of potential gene-drug interactions by analyzing pharmacokinetic (PK) genes (how drugs are metabolized) as well as pharmacodynamic (PD) genes (how drugs work). While combinatorial PGx testing is attractive to clinicians, patients, healthcare systems, and insurers, limited data demonstrate that PGx testing will result in better outcomes compared to evidence-based guideline treatment. Therefore, the investigators will conduct a prospective randomized comparative effectiveness study of best practice guidelines plus combinatorial PGx-guided treatment versus best-practice guideline concordant treatment alone.
