Genetic Counseling clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Clinical Trial of the Sequence of Cardiovascular Genetic Counseling and Testing

RESEQUENCEGC

Start date: December 20, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Although pre-test genetic counseling is widely recommended and has come to dominate genetic counseling practice, tailored results-focused genetic counseling could both increase genetic counseling efficiency and improve genetic counseling outcomes for the growing number of patients seeking genetic testing for recommended genome-guided medical management. This study will test that hypothesis in adults referred for cardiovascular genetic counseling and testing at the Johns Hopkins Center for Inherited Heart Diseases. This study is a three-arm randomized clinical trial to evaluate two complementary approaches to shifting the primary genetic counseling session to post-test for 510 adults with two broad cardiovascular genetic counseling indications: diagnostic panel testing and family-specific variant testing. The investigators will compare usual care (pre-test genetic counseling appointment, results returned by phone / electronic health record) with online video-based pre-test tailored genetic education with an optional (efficiency arm) or required (flipped arm) phone call with a genetic counselor followed by a post-test genetic counseling appointment. The investigators hypothesize that post-test genetic counseling will: 1) increase efficiency, 2) promote patient empowerment and adherence, and 3) have similar genetic test-associated psychosocial impact.
