Drug-Related Side Effects and Adverse Reactions
Conditions
Brief summary
This retrospective study's objective is to evaluate if Cipherome's algorithm could have predicted the serious adverse drug reactions (ADRs) experienced by patients while on direct oral anti-coagulants (DOACs).
Detailed description
Using the latest next generation sequencing tools, this study will evaluate adverse drug reactions (ADRs) (e.g., major bleeding or treatment failure) in study participants while on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs). A web-based program will analyze the data obtain from sequencing, and generate a drug safety score (DSS). The DSS risk score will be compared with pre-specified serious ADRs associated with DOAC therapy. A secondary analysis will involve discovery of novel variants that arise from our analysis and may potentially affect the outcome of DOAC treatment.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Number of Participants with a Major Bleeding Event | Within 90 days of DOAC therapy initiation | Reduction in hemoglobin of at least 2 g/dL Blood loss requiring transfusion of at least 2 units of whole blood or erythrocytes Critical anatomical sites of bleeding: intramuscular with compartment syndrome, intracranial, intraspinal, retroperitoneal, intraocular, pericardial, and atraumatic intra-articular bleeding. Bleeding led to death |
| Number of Participants with a Clinically Relevant Non-major Bleeding Event | Within 90 days of DOAC therapy initiation | Acute or subacute clinically overt bleed that does not meet the criteria for a major bleed but prompts a clinical response, in that it leads to at least one of the following: A hospital admission for bleeding, or A physician guided medical or surgical treatment for bleeding, or A change in antithrombotic therapy (including interruption or discontinuation of study drug). |
| Number of Deaths Reported | Through study completion, an average of 1 year | Death at any time |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Number of Participants with a Thromboembolic Event | Within 90 days of DOAC therapy initiation | Deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack, arterial thrombosis, or other thromboembolic event. |
