About this trial
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a consultation with a Personalized Therapeutics Clinic, or PTC, will help participants lower the risk for side effects (drug-drug interactions and drug-gene interactions) when taking many medications and help providers improve prescribing decisions for participants. A PTC is a clinical that will test your genes to gather information about your health that may help guide prescribing advice and offer you new information about your prescriptions. Doctors leading this study will look for variations (differences) in your genes that may suggest that you are at greater risk of having side effects or a greater chance of benefiting from certain medications. Individuals in this study will participate for roughly 9 months.

Trial design
Parallel
Treatments tested in this trial
Drug-Drug Interaction Profile
Other interventionA profile based on genetic testing that shows information about how the participant's medications they are taking interact with each other.
Drug-Gene Interaction Profile
Other interventionA profile based on genetic testing that shows information about how the participant's genes interact with/respond to certain medications they are taking.
Standard of Care
Other interventionThe standard treatment and prescribing for the participant's specific type of cancer.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change in Rate of Drug-Drug Interactions and Drug-Gene Interactions Among Participants
The change in the composite rate of drug-drug interactions (DDIs) and drug-gene interactions (DGIs) from baseline (at beginning of study) and after each intervention compared between all three arms.
Secondary outcomes
Participants At High-Risk for Drug-Drug and Drug-Gene Interactions
Reported as a percentage of total hospitalized participants
Strategy to Implement at Personalize Therapeutic Clinic (PTC) at Specific Sites Based on Available Mediators (PTC Partners)
An implementation strategy for a site-specific Personalized Therapeutic Clinic (PTC) as assessed by evaluating which mediators and moderators who may be able to adopt PTC recommendations.
Rate of Hospitalizations
The rate of hospitalizations among participants in all three arms as assessed by study notes/clinical record.
Rate of Emergency Department Visits
Rate of emergency department visits among participants in all three arms as assessed by study notes/clinical record.
