About this study

Official title: NeuroSeq: A Prospective Trial to Evaluate the Diagnostic Yield of Human Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) Compared to Standard of Care in Adults With Suspected Genetic Neurological Disorders

Prospective, multi-site, single-arm study to evaluate the diagnostic yield of cWGS in adults with neurological disorders. A single cohort naive of genetic testing will receive standard of care testing for 180 days followed by cWGS. The cohort will be followed for a total of 365 days following enrollment.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, randomized study to evaluate the diagnostic yield of SOC compared to cWGS in each participant. Throughout this study, each participant will receive SOC testing as determined by the site clinical team. After the physician orders SOC testing during standard clinical practice, the subject will be introduced and invited to participate in the study. On Day 180, the participant will receive a cWGS result and the participant will continue to be followed for an additional 180 days. A blood sample from each enrolled participant will be collected and shipped to the Illumina Clinical Services Laboratory ("ICSL"), which is Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA)-certified and College of American Pathologists (CAP)-accredited. ICSL will conduct cWGS testing with the TruGenome Undiagnosed Disease Test ("TruGenome Test"). The TruGenome Test cWGS results will be provided to the Principal Investigator (PI) or designee who will evaluate each participant's test outcome based on aggregate medical information.

    Participants will receive cWGS as well as standard of care testing. The clinician/site PI will be blinded to the cWGS results until Day 180.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Diagnostic Yield between cWGS and SOC testing

    The number of participants who have a diagnosis in the SOC arm vs the cWGS arm as measured by the test outcome

    Measured: Day 0 - Day 365

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change of Management between cWGS and SOC testing as measured by a management questionnaire collected on a case report form

    The number of participants who have a change in management after receiving SOC results vs cWGS results as measured by a management questionnaire at baseline, Day 180 and Day 365

    Measured: Day 0 - Day 365

  2. Resource Utilization between cWGS and SOC testing

    The number of participants who have utilized resources to include specialist referrals, tests/procedures ordered and procedures avoided in the SOC arm vs the cWGS arm as measured by data collection case report forms

    Measured: Day 0 - Day 365

  3. Quality of Life between cWGS and SOC testing

    Comparison between Quality-of-Life scores as measured by the 12-Item Short Form Survey (SF12) from baseline compared to end of study

    Measured: Day 0 - Day 365

  4. Diagnostic Accuracy between cWGS and SOC testing when comparing the medical monitor test outcome and the site PI test outcome

    Diagnostic accuracy- percent positive agreement between test outcome classified by the medical monitor and the site PI or designee

    Measured: Day 0 - Day 180

  5. Diagnostic Yield within Cohort when evaluating specific Neurologic disorders

    Difference in diagnostic yield between cohorts of neurological disorders

    Measured: Day 0 - Day 365

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neurologic Deficits and Neurologic Disorder, run by Illumina, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Diagnostic Yield between cWGS and SOC testing (time frame: Day 0 - Day 365). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 May 2024.
