IGNITE Site | Principal Investigators | Study Name | Study Goals |
---|---|---|---|
Duke University School of Medicine | Geoffery Ginsburg, MD, PhD and Lori A. Orlando, MD, MHS | Implementation, Adoption, and Utility of Family History in Diverse Care Settings |
• Develop an optimal strategy for implementing a patient-facing web-based family health history tool, MeTree, into routine clinical practice in diverse settings. • Demonstrate the effectiveness of MeTree in increasing uptake of risk stratified evidence-based prevention guidelines. • Create a standardized family health history storage database that can integrate with electronic medical records for bi-directional communication of family and personal history data and risk assessment results. |
Indiana University School of Medicine | Paul Dexter, MD and Todd Skaar, PhD | INGENIOUS: Indiana GENomics Implementation, an Opportunity for the Under-Served |
• Test the hypothesis that a CLIA certified genotyping targeted at 24 widely used drugs is associated with significant reductions in hospital and outpatient economic costs incurred over 1 year. • Test whether pharmacogenetic testing is associated with significant improvements in clinical outcomes over 1 year. |
Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai | Carol R. Horowitz, MD, MPH | The GUARDD Study: Genetic testing to Understand and Address Renal Disease Disparities | • Conduct a randomized trial in a network of community health centers and primary care facilities to study processes, effects and challenges of incorporating information for apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1)-attributable genetic risk for end stage kidney disease in patients of African ancestry with hypertension. |
University of Florida College of Pharmacy | Julie A. Johnson, PharmD | Genomic Medicine Implementation: The Personalized Medicine Program (PMP) | • Partner with health professionals and patients at UF Health and across the state to develop, implement, study and refine methods that allow genetic information to be used as a routine part of patient care. • Engage in expansion to Private and Community-based Practices in Florida. • Develop programs in Genomic Medicine Education. |
University of Maryland School of Medicine | Toni I. Pollin, MS, PhD | Genomic Diagnosis and Individualized Therapy of Highly Penetrant Genetic Diabetes | • Implement and evaluate a Personalized Diabetes Medicine Program (PDMP) in four diverse health care settings to enhance the identification and opportunities for individualized therapy of individuals and family members affected by highly penetrant/ monogenic diabetes. |
Vanderbilt University Medical Center | Joshua C. Denny, MD, MS and Mia Levy, MD, PhD | Integrated, Individualized, and Intelligent Prescribing (I3P) Network | • Develop, maintain, and disseminate genome-informed clinical decision support within Adopter Sites. • Select and prospectively genotype patients within Adopter Sites for subsequent genotype-tailored therapy. • Evaluate the impact of integrating genetic data and clinical decision support into Adopter Site EMRs. |
