Genetic testing for drug reactions in complex care children
This study looks at how children with complex medical conditions respond to medicines based on their genes. It may help personalize care by testing how your child's body processes certain drugs, all from a simple cheek swab.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You receive care at the Cincinnati Children's Complex Care Clinic.
- Your child has a score of 3 on the Pediatric Medical Complexity Algorithm (very complex medical needs).
- You are at the clinic for a well-child or chronic care visit (not for an acute illness).
- A legal guardian is with you during the visit.
- You have not had pharmacogenetic testing before.
- You are not a ward of the state.

This trial checks if genetic testing can help doctors pick safer drugs for you when you are in the hospital or visiting a clinic. If you qualify, you will give a cheek swab and be followed for about 12 weeks.
This study uses personalized information to help understand how your current medicines interact with each other and with your genes. It may help your care team choose safer, more effective medication plans for you.
This study looks at whether a person’s genetic makeup can help choose safer medicines or improve how well treatment works. You may be asked for testing if you’ve had a bad reaction or treatment failure, or if you’re starting a new medicine that is known to be affected by genetics.
This study helps doctors use genetic (pharmacogenomic) testing to choose which medicines may work best and cause fewer side effects. You may join if your child’s doctor is considering certain common medicines, such as pain, antibiotic, or mental health medications.
This study looks at how to put genetic testing results (pharmacogenomics) into regular doctor care. It aims to see whether using the results helps doctors choose safer, better-matched medications.
This trial uses genetic testing to better understand the cause of a newborn’s birth defect and to help doctors choose more personalized treatment. It may help families get clearer answers and more targeted care.
