The PopSeq Project is a prospective cohort study that will develop and implement a genomic return of results (gRoR) process in the Framingham Heart Study (FHS) and Jackson Heart Study (JHS) cohorts and explore associated medical, behavioral, and economic outcomes. The study will interpret the genomic sequences of JHS/FHS participants previously sequenced by TOPMed who have consented to genomic return of results and/or genetic testing. We will develop and apply new methods for scalable screening/ classification of genomic variants and will explore genomic penetrance by phenotyping a subset of participants in the FHS and JHS.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Other | Health Behaviors | The survey includes a series of standardized yes/no questions to assess whether disclosed genetic information motivated participants to make changes to health behaviors. A summary score will be created based on the number of behaviors that participants report. | 1 year post-disclsoure | |
Other | Disclosure-specific Impact | The survey assess the disclosure-specific impact of information on distress and positive emotions using an adapted 8-item version of the FaCTOR, a validated instrument developed for genomic sequencing that is sensitive to responses to high- and low-risk genetic risk results. | 6 months post-disclosure | |
Other | Satisfaction with Disclsoure | Surveys will assess how helpful participants felt the results disclosure session was using a novel single question. | 6 months post-disclosure and 1 year post-disclosure | |
Other | Decisional Regret | Surveys will assess if participants regretted their decisions to receive their genetic findings using a novel single question. | 6 months post-disclosure and 1 year post-disclosure | |
Other | Sharing with Relatives | The survey will assess with how many relatives participants shared their genetic information. | 1 year post-disclsoure | |
Other | Family Testing | The survey will assess whether participants had relatives that received genetic testing based on disclosure to the participant. | 1 year post-disclsoure | |
Other | General Anxiety | We will measure general anxiety using the General Anxiety Disorder Scale 2 (GAD-2), a validated 2-item instrument that will allow investigators to identify individuals with a potential mood disorder. | Post-disclosure and 6 months post-disclosure | |
Primary | Follow Through with Disclosure | JHS/FHS participants who have been sequenced through TOPMed, are alive and have consented for result return will be notified if an actionable genetic result is discovered. We will contact them and offer them the opportunity to have their research result clinically confirmed. We will evaluate the proportion of individuals who elect to have their result confirmed and disclosed to their health care provider. | From genetic result notification to 8 months post-disclosure | |
Primary | Costs of Disclosure | We will determine the costs and associated time demands of implementing gRoR using a microcosting approach in which study staff track the amount of time they spend and the resources they use for each step of the protocol. For follow-up medical care, we will use a gross costing approach where we apply Centers for Medicare and Medicaid fee schedules to completed referrals and tests, hospitalizations and medication changes identified as described above. | 1 year post-disclosure | |
Secondary | Guideline Compliance | Comparison of participants' personal and family histories of disease and their relevant available medical data against existing guidelines to identify instances where genetic testing and/or referral had been warranted but was never ordered. | History before disclosure | |
Secondary | New and Modified Diagnoses | We will examine cases to determine the percentage of individuals with a new or modified diagnosis attributed to results disclosure. | 1 year post-disclosure | |
Secondary | Self-Rated Health | We will administer a single item of self rated health derived from the SF-12v2. | Post disclosure and 1 year post-disclosure | |
Secondary | MD Recommendations | We will review chart notes from results disclosure sessions to determine services recommended in response to genetic findings. | From disclosure to 1 month post-disclosure | |
Secondary | Health Care Utilization | We will track health care utilization in response to results disclosure in the one year follow-up survey, including a) referrals and tests, b) hospitalizations, and c) medication changes | 1 year post-disclosure |
