The goal of this study is to assess the benefit to physicians and patients of adding an integrated risk score (IRS) to existing coronary artery risk tools by conducting a randomized prospective study. IRS combines both an individual's coronary artery disease (CAD) polygenic risk score (PRS) and clinical risk factors, like cholesterol levels and age. This study will examine to what extent IRS knowledge impacts physician/provider behavior as well as clinical outcomes including cholesterol levels and incident heart disease.
This is a 1:1 randomized controlled trial of participants with no known coronary artery disease, are not on lipid-lowering therapy, and do not have LDL-C over 190mg/dL. Participants will be recruited from cohorts that have been previously genotyped and found to have either elevated or average risk based on a CAD IRS. Participants will be randomized into two equal groups: one group will receive their IRS result for coronary artery disease at baseline, and the other group will receive their ASCVD Pooled Cohorts Equation result at baseline and CAD IRS result approximately 3 years after enrollment…
Inclusion Criteria: * ASCVD risk ≥5% and below 20% over the following 10 years as defined by the standard pooled cohort equations * No previous CAD event (inclusive of myocardial infarction, diagnosis of CAD, stroke) * Previously genotyped as part of a research study that enables recontact of participants * Receiving primary care at a participating institution. Exclusion Criteria: * Prior diagnosis of CAD: inclusive of prior myocardial infarction and revascularization (stent or coronary artery bypass grafting) * Currently treated with lipid-lowering therapy, including statins, ezetimibe, PC…
Participants will receive their integrated risk score for coronary disease along with an optional genetic counseling visit to discuss the results.
