简要总结
Whether patients with a functional genotype of a protein important in blood pressure regulation respond better to a drug therapy class/combination of therapy classes that target that specific pathway using the Geneticure panel for high blood pressure
详细描述
2.1 Study Design and Protocol Overview This is a post-hoc association study of patients who have been diagnosed with high blood pressure and have been stable on medication treatment for at least 6 months. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between optimal medication therapy (or the therapy that has resulted in the most stable blood pressure for that particular patient) and the predicted optimal medication therapy based on a patient's genetic profile.
Chart reviews for the patient's history of antihypertensive therapy will be coupled with buccal swabs and blood pressure readings collected from eligible patients who have provided informed consent. The swab will be analyzed for fourteen genetic variants that are associated with antihypertensive therapy response (efficacy, side-effects).
2.2 Study Objective To assess the relationship between the drug therapy class/combination of therapy classes that resulted in the best blood pressure control for a patient vs. what the Geneticure high blood pressure panel would have predicted.
2.3 Secondary Objectives
- To assess the clinical time to achieve optimal blood pressure treatment.
- To assess the number of office visits required to achieve optimal blood pressure treatment.

结局指标
主要结局
Ambulatory blood pressure changes (using sphygmomanometry) in response to therapy according to genes important in blood pressure regulation
时间窗: one year
To assess the relationship between the drug therapy class/combination of therapy classes that resulted in the best blood pressure control for a patient vs. what the Geneticure high blood pressure panel would have predicted. We will assess blood pressure values (systolic and diastolic blood pressure, in mmHg) at rest in patients on different blood pressure medications.
次要结局
- The clinical time to achieve optimal blood pressure treatment(One year)
- The number of office visits required to achieve optimal blood pressure treatment.(One year)
