Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Intervention: Buccal Swab from the patient is collected after consent, by the treating psychiatrist or study coordinator using a Buccal Swab kit

Intervention: Patient Questionnaires will be completed at Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 24. Psychiatrists will complete questionnaires at Baseline and Week 12. General Practitioners will complete questionnaires at Week 24.

Intervention: A once only Multi-Disciplinary Team (60 mins) telehealth clinic will occur approximately 2 - 3 weeks after the buccal swab has been taken and when the pharmacogenomics report is ready. This clinic will be attended by the patient, treating psychiatrist, pharmacist, geneticist and genetic counsellor. During the telehealth clinical the pharmacogenomics test report will be reviewed and discussed to determine whether any changes to the patient's current medications are required based on the pharmacogenomics results. The diagnostic report from the laboratory tests 27 genes with high-level evidence covering 24 anti-depressants, 3 anxiolytics and 15 antipsychotics for genetically incompatible medications and drug-gene interations and includes non-CLIA educational material relevant to the genotype of the Study subject.

The strategy used to monitor adherence to the interventions throughout the study is by a checklist kept by the study coordinator with follow up phone calls and emails when required to prompt adherence to interventions

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 327812 0
Number of medication changes for each patient from Baseline to Week 12 as defined by dosage alteration, discontinuation of current, and/or initiation of new psychotropic medications. The method of assessment for number and type of medication changes is via a Medication Change Questionnaire for psychotropic medications completed by participants. The questionnaire will record any discontinuation, addition, and dosage alteration of psychotropic medications, as well as reasons for discontinuation.

Secondary outcome [1] 396679 0
Response rate defined as equal to or greater than 50% decrease in depressive symptoms in patients taking congruent medications versus patients taking incongruent medications as per The Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (16-Item) (Self-Report) (QIDS-SR16) score

At Week 12 post intervention
Secondary outcome [2] 399907 0

Secondary outcome [3] 399908 0
Medication Adherence as defined by the validated Three Item Self-Report Measure for Medication Adherence Scale.

Timepoint [3] 399908 0
At Baseline and at weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 post intervention
Secondary outcome [4] 399909 0
Feasibility of the Model of Care for pharmacogenomics guided treatment Model of Care as analysed by an economic evaluation. The economic evaluation is by data linkage to Medicare and PBS data which will include the cost of Pharmacogenomics guided testing, the cost of treatments for pharmacogenomics guided care, cost of medications, and the cost of hospital/emergency room admissions as compared to treatment as usual in the literature.
Timepoint [4] 399909 0
When all patient participants have passed week 24 post intervetion
