ADOPT PGx Trial Summary

This trial studies whether genetic testing and genotype-guided opioid therapy can improve pain control in people with slower-than-normal drug metabolism.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who speak English or Spanish, have had chronic pain for at least 3 months, and are treated with certain pain meds like tramadol. It's not for those too ill to consent, in institutions, moving soon, on daily opioids (except specific ones), with short life expectancy, past organ transplants, prior genetic testing relevant to the study or active cancer treatment.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The Chronic Pain Trial tests if using pharmacogenetic testing to guide opioid therapy can better manage pain compared to standard care. Participants will be randomly placed into two groups: one gets immediate genetic testing and tailored pain treatment; the other receives this after a six-month delay.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here as it's a test of personalized medicine approaches rather than new drugs per se, potential side effects may relate to the use of opioids such as nausea, constipation, drowsiness or risk of dependency.
