Genetic Test for Cardiorenal Complications in Type 2 Diabetes
(GENOCORDIA Trial)
Trial Summary
What is the purpose of this trial?
The goal of this pragmatic trial is to provide Real World Evidence (RWE) on the impact of the result of a polygenic risk prediction test of cardiorenal complications of T2D, so that more patients at high risk of these complications achieve over an 18 months period, recommended therapeutic targets. This will be demonstrated as a significant improvement in a composite value including HbA1c or systolic blood pressure (SBP) or albuminuria (UACR), or glomerular filtration rate (GFR) lowering. Researchers will compare the recommended therapeutic targets of uninformed and informed patients to see if the knowledge of the risk by the patients and their treating physicians improves achievement of these targets. Participants will: Have a saliva sampling to determine the genetic risk. Visit the clinic once every 3 months for checkups and tests Answer two questionnaires on quality of life.
Do I need to stop my current medications for this trial?
The trial information does not specify whether you need to stop taking your current medications. It's best to discuss this with the trial coordinators or your doctor.
What data supports the effectiveness of the treatment Polygenic Risk Score, Genetic Risk Score, PRS for cardiorenal complications in Type 2 Diabetes?
Research suggests that using genetic information, like Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS), could help identify people at higher risk for complications in Type 2 Diabetes, potentially leading to better prevention strategies. However, current studies indicate that PRS does not significantly improve the prediction of kidney issues over existing clinical methods.12345
