Brief summary

The purpose of this collaborative CTSA application is to develop an innovative perioperative precision analgesia platform (PPAP) to improve analgesia and reduce serious immediate and long-term adverse outcomes of perioperative opioids in children undergoing painful surgery.

Detailed description

Aim 1. Develop and implement a perioperative precision analgesia platform (PPAP) by linking genomics to opioid metabolism, CPIC guidelines, precision dosing, clinical safety, and personalizing analgesia. Aim 2. Implement and evaluate PPAP in children undergoing major inpatient surgery, posterior spinal fusion (PSF) 1. Determine genetic factors predisposing children to immediate and long-term postoperative methadone and oxycodone related adverse effects including RD, PONV, opioid dependence, and CPSP The PI postulate that specific CYP2B6, ABCB1, OPRM1, FAAH, and CYP2D6 variants identify children at risk for poor pain relief, RD, PONV, opioid dependence, and CPSP in the postoperative period. 2. Determine genetic variants-based perioperative dosing and outpatient prescribing of opioids The PI hypothesize that CYP2B6 and CYP2D6 variants will explain pharmacokinetic variations of methadone and oxycodone, determine the right doses, and implement precision opioid use for optimal clinical outcomes

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Look at genetic factors predisposing children to immediate postoperative opioid-adverse effects Respiratory Depression (RD) and Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV)Immediately post-surgery up to 4 days in patientThe investigators will look at specific CYP2D6, ABCB1, FAAH, OPRM1, and COMT variants to find correlations with children who experience RD and PONV in the immediate post-surgical period (4 days) in the hospital
Look at genetic factors predisposing children to postoperative opioid-adverse effects Respiratory Depression (RD) and Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV) at genetic factors predisposing children to inadequate surgical pain relief with oxycodoneAt home up to 1 year post-surgeryThe investigators will look at specific CYP2D6, ABCB1, FAAH, OPRM1, and COMT variants to find correlations with children who experience RD and PONV in the post-surgical period at home up to 1-year
Look at genetic factors predisposing children to inadequate surgical pain relief with oxycodoneImmediately post-surgeryThe investigators will look at specific CYP2D6, ABCB1, FAAH, OPRM1, and COMT variants to find correlations with children who experience poor pain relief in the immediate post-surgical period (4 days) in the hospital. Poor pain relief will be determined using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) which runs on a 0-10 scale; 0 being no pain at all, 10 being the worst pain imaginable.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Look at the impact of CYP2D6 variants on oxycodone's clinical dosing in children to see if specific variants correlate with a need for lower or higher doses of analgesicPre-operative to post-operative day 2The investigators will look at CYP2D6 variants to find correlations in oxycodone's PK sampling and the need for dose adjustments that lead to desired clinical outcomes in children undergoing major inpatient surgeries. Oxycodone will be measured by the IU CTSI's Clinical Pharmacology Analytical Core (CPAC) laboratory using a validated LC/MS/MS as-say,201 and plasma alpha-1 acid glycoprotein (AAG) will be measured using a HPLC/UV assay. Study team will track the subjects choices from their signed consent form regarding PK collections.
