Study Summary

This is a two-arm double-blind prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate clinical impact of pharmacogenomic testing on the treatment of major depressive disorder. Participants will be randomly assigned to two groups: pharmacogenomic-guided therapy group (guided group) and treatment as usual group (TAU group). The primary hypothesis is the pharmacogenomic-guided treatment group will demonstrate significantly higher percent improvement in depression score compared to treatment-as-usual group.

Primary Outcome

The patient is rated by a clinician among 17 dimensions with a score on a 3 or 5 point scale. A score of 0-7 is considered to be normal. Scores of 20 or higher indicate moderate, severe, or very severe depression, and are usually required for entry into a clinical trial.
