Engagement Study for Participants With Factor V Leiden and Prothrombin G20210A Mutations
An observational study of Factor V Leiden and Prothrombin G20210A, run by Richmond Research Institute at 1 site in United Kingdom.
Trial summary
This study will enrol individuals who have, or may have, Factor V Leiden or Prothrombin G20210A mutations, which are genetic changes linked to an increased risk of blood clots. Targeted genetic testing will be carried out, where appropriate, to confirm whether participants have one of these genetic variants. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Engagement Study to Establish a Clinical Baseline for Adult Participants With Factor V Leiden or Prothrombin G20210A Mutation and Familiarise Them With the Clinical Trials Unit Environment for Future Clinical Trial Participation.
This study will enrol individuals who have, or may have, Factor V Leiden or Prothrombin G20210A mutations, which are genetic changes linked to an increased risk of blood clots. Targeted genetic testing will be carried out, where appropriate, to confirm whether participants have one of these genetic variants. Those with a confirmed result will attend a site visit for basic health checks, including blood pressure measurements, ECG, and blood tests, to establish a baseline of their general health and help identify suitability for future related clinical trials.
The study also provides participants with the opportunity to learn more about clinical research and become familiar with the clinical trial unit and team. Participation lasts approximately 10 weeks and includes 1-2 site visits and a follow-up telephone call.
Read the detailed description
This study aims to engage people who have, or may have, Factor V Leiden or Prothrombin G20210A mutations, which are genetic changes that can increase the risk of blood clots such as stroke. The study will collect health information to establish a clinical baseline for each participant. This can later help identify which participants are more likely to be included in Factor V Leiden or Prothrombin G20210A-related clinical trials.
The study also helps participants understand what taking part in a clinical trial involves. It gives them the chance to visit the clinical trials unit and become familiar with the clinical team before deciding whether they would like to join future studies related to these conditions.
Targeted genetic testing will be used to confirm whether participants have Factor V Leiden or Prothrombin G20210A mutations. This is particularly helpful for people from groups where these genetic changes are suspected and may allow some participants to receive a formal diagnosis.
The study will take approximately 10 weeks for participants to complete, consisting of 1 to 2 visits and a follow-up telephone call. Participants will first attend a screening visit, where the study will be explained and written consent will be taken. Following the informed consent, a genetic test will be performed for participants who are suspected of having Factor V Leiden or Prothrombin G20210A mutations.
Participants with confirmed diagnosis will be invited to a Day 1 visit. At this visit, participants will undergo a series of basic clinical assessments, such as blood pressure, heart recordings (ECGs), and blood tests. These assessments will help to establish a clinical baseline of the participant's health. Participants will receive a guided tour of the clinical trial unit to become familiar with its setting and environment.
Participants may also be provided with a hard copy of a Participant Information Sheet/Informed Consent Form (PIS/ICF) of any future relevant clinical trial (provided this document has received approval from the REC). This will allow potential participants to take the information home for a thorough review and discussion with friends and family before potentially attending a screening appointment for any future trials. A follow-up telephone call with the Study Doctor will be conducted within 1 week after Day 1 to discuss the results of the clinical assessments, allow participants to ask any questions and arrange specialist referrals or follow-up from their GP if required to support the participant's ongoing care

Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. 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?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact James Rickard, MPharm (+44 (0) 20 7042 5800, jrickard@richmondresearchinstitute.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Willingness to be re-contacted for future clinical trials and Feedback Questionnaire. (time frame: Until the end of the study (up to 15 weeks)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07584265, which also lists 3 linked publications.
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 29 May 2026.
