Genetics of Drug Metabolism Clinical Trial
— POETRYOfficial title:
Pharmacogenomic Testing Of the Elderly To Reduce Morbidity
The goal of the POETRY Registry is to determine whether data from Pharmacogenomic (PGx)
Testing for elderly and disabled patients can help physicians manage patient medication
regimens and assess if the testing has an effect on reducing adverse drug events,
hospitalizations, and emergency department visits.
The way an individual processes or metabolizes a drug is in part determined by their genes,
and there is known to be genetic variation from one human to another. The study of the way
in which genes affect an individual's response to drugs is known as "Pharmacogenomics."

Primary | Occurrence of Meaningful Change in Drug Regimen | The primary endpoint of the study is the binary occurrence of meaningful change in drug regimen, defined in each subject when: A genotype known to affect a drug the subject is taking is identified, and The subject's treating physician makes at least one target drug regimen change, dose, substitution, or discontinuation. |
90 days | No |
Secondary | Binary occurrence of meaningful change in drug regimen, defined at the drug level over the 90-day period following receipt of PGx test results | 90 days | No | |
Secondary | Binary occurrence of meaningful change in drug regimen, defined at the gene level over the 90-day period following receipt of PGx test results | 90 days | No | |
Secondary | Binary occurrence of whether, in the Investigator's opinion, the subject experienced clinical benefit from drug regimen changes made as a result of the PGx test | Clinical benefit refers to improvement in the subject's condition in the Investigator's opinion | 90 days | No |
Secondary | Number of changes in a subject's target drugs, tabulated on a per-subject basis by number and percentage of target drugs and total drugs | 90 days | No | |
Secondary | Binary change (yes/no) in the regimen of drugs controlled by genes of interest over the 90-day period preceding PGx testing compared with the change (yes/no) over the 90-day period following receipt of PGx test results | 90 days | No | |
Secondary | Number of target drug-related adverse events over the 90-day period prior to and following PGx testing | 90 days | No | |
Secondary | Emergency department visits over the 90-day periods prior to and following PGx testing | 90 days | No | |
Secondary | Hospitalizations over the 90-day period prior to and following receipt of PGx test results | 90 days | No |
