The Use of Precision Medicine to Support the Precision of Clinical Decisions in care delivery

Summary

Objectives: Objective: Precision medicine uses individualized patient data, including genomic and social determinants of health SDoH), to provide optimized personalized patient treatment. In this scoping review, we summarize studies published in the last two years that reported on implementation of precision medicine in clinical decision support (CDS) related to precision medicine.

Methods: We searched PubMed for manuscripts published in 2022 and 2023 to retrieve publications that included CDS and precision medicine keywords and Mesh terms. We reviewed the abstracts and full texts to apply the inclusion criteria that the study must have described the implementation of precision medicine related CDS within electronic health records. We extracted the domain, type of data used in CDS, target population included in the implementation from the final set of included manuscripts.

Results: Our search retrieved 285 manuscripts and papers. Sixteen (16) papers met inclusion criteria after manual review of the full text. Eight of the reviewed papers studied the successful implementation of pharmacogenomics in CDS, four studies investigated the implementation of disease risk, and only one paper described the implementation of CDS integrating social determinants of health.

Conclusion: Our scoping review of recent literature highlighted several findings. Pharmacogenomics is the most implemented precision medicine intervention based on published studies. Few reports describing disease risk and polygenic risk scores were found and no study addressed CDS for continuous biometric monitoring. Despite the increasing attention to social determinants of health as a key predictor of health outcomes, only one CDS incorporating SDoH have been publicly reported. Regular updates to scoping reviews can investigate barriers to implementation and identify solutions.

1. Introduction

Precision medicine is the personalized approach to clinical care that tailors disease prevention and treatment by considering individual patient characteristics, such as genetics, environment, and lifestyle. Making those data available at the point of care can improve the accuracy of disease diagnosis, identify individuals at increased risk of disease, and improve patient outcomes through earlier diagnosis and better targeted treatment [[1],[2]]. Precision medicine was introduced to refine and complement the dominant model of medical care, evidence-based medicine, which has been critiqued as an all purpose “one-size-fits-all” approach [[3]].

Clinical Decision Support (CDS) systems enhance the decision-making process by ideally providing the right information, to the right person, through the right channel, in the right format, and at the right time in the workflow [[4],[5]]. CDS systems attain patients' information from Electronic Health Records (EHR) and utilize computerized clinical knowledge to provide evidence-based suggestions. Precise CDS systems may be able to harness multi-omics data to provide individualized treatment and diagnoses based on clinical and published knowledge [[6]]. CDS has been used to suggest differential diagnoses, manage disease risk, advise on treatment strategies, and improve drug safety [[6],[7]]. CDS systems have multiple functionalities, including alert systems, recommendations, disease management, medication prescription and management, and computerized guidelines [[6]].

Significant breakthroughs in precision medicine, especially in the availability, understanding, and clinical utility of genomics, have increased the necessity for developing CDS. Efficient and successful implementation of precision medicine CDS tools demonstrates its value in providing recommendations. As an example, one type of CDS can significantly affect healthcare providers' use of pharmacogenomic testing [[8]]. Pharmacogenomic Resource for Enhanced Decisions in Care and Treatment (PREDICT), a pharmacogenomics initiative, implemented drug-gene interactions alert systems [[9],[10]]. For example, PREDICT alerts clinicians if they prescribe clopidogrel to patients with homozygous CYP2C19*2 variants to avoid ineffective antiplatelet treatment that may lead to increased cardiovascular event rates.

Traditionally, precision medicine, especially in its implementation, is focused on genetics. More recently, other domains of precision medicine, social determinants of health (SDoH), sensor data, and environmental data have been recognized to play a significant role in creating individualized treatment plans tailored to patients' needs [[11],[12]]. However, despite the abundance of research, implementation of precision medicine using CDS has been limited [[13]]. Regularly assessing the status and trends of implementing precision medicine in CDS is vital to understanding the progress and challenges in this area. The previous precision medicine reviews focused on CDS involving genomic medicine and reviewed the literature through March 2023 [[14],[15]].

In this scoping review, we sought to: (i) update prior reviews by summarizing studies published in 2022 and 2023, (ii) determine whether CDS within genomic medicine was expanding in scope to involve sequencing and disease risk scenarios, and (iii) determine whether precision medicine CDS has expanded to include environmental data, SDoH, or models of disease risk that integrate genetic, clinical, and environmental risks. To be included in this scoping review, the CDS must have been implemented and published within the most recent two calendar years, spanning publication dates in 2022 and 2023.

2. Methods

From PubMed, we extracted papers that were published in 2022 and 2023. We included papers written in English, which had full text available. The abstract had to include any of the following CDS keywords: (“cognitive aid,” “user interface,” “expert system,” “decision support systems,” “CDS,” “clinical reminder,” “best practice advisory,” “best practice alert,” “decision support,” “Decision Support Systems, Clinical”, and “Decision Support Systems, Management”), and any precision medicine keywords: (“Precision medicine”, “personalized medicine”, “Genomic medicine”, “genomics”, “Pharmacogenomics”, “Pharmacogenetics”, “disease risk”, “somatic variation”, “SDoH”, “Social determinants of health”, “activity sensor”, “home sensor”, “personalized medicine”, “genetics”, “Individualized medicine”, “P4 medicine”, “polygenic risk score”, “genetic variant”, “Biomarker”, “Precision diagnostics”,” Socioeconomic status”, “Health literacy”). We reviewed the abstracts and included the papers that discussed using precision medicine CDS.

Afterward, we read the full-text papers and applied the two inclusion criteria:

• Leveraging patient-specific information, including biomarkers, genes, and social factors;

• EHR implementation: CDS tools had to be described and implemented within an EHR environment. In addition, the paper should describe an applied CDS study that included patients as part of implementation to exclude papers that describe only the framework.

For the papers included in the final dataset, we extracted the following information: precision medicine aspect, the population included in the implementation, CDS type, and a brief description of the CDS implementation.

3. Results

Our PubMed search yielded 285 papers. After reviewing the abstracts, we included 54 papers for full-text review ([Figure 1]). Ultimately, only 16 papers met the inclusion criteria ([Table 1]). We identified six precision medicine aspects: pharmacogenomics, genetic screening, Polygenic risk score (PRS), disease risk, SDoH, and other clinical implementations such as referrals. The most implemented precision medicine domain was pharmacogenomics (n=8). The second most implemented precision medicine domain was genetic screening (n=4). The most screened gene variants were CYP2C19 (n=3), SLCO1B1 (n=3), CYP2C9 (n=2), CYP3A4 (n=2), and OPRM1 (n=2). Two studies did not mention variants, medications, or disease and focused on overall implementation.

Since most studies assessed the implementation of pharmacogenomics tools, their CDS tools focused on medication management and prescriptions to adjust medication dosage, find the right treatment, prevent adverse events, and identify drug-drug interactions [[16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23]]. Six studies enrolled less than 1,000 patients, while eight included more than 1,500 patients. Six studies implemented CDS systems to identify patients with cardiovascular disease, statin disease medication prescription and management, or cardiovascular genotyping [[17],[18],[20],[21],[23],[24]]. Seven papers discussed educational efforts to train providers on the CDS tools.

All studies reported improvement in studied outcomes. Five studies reported higher adoption rates and referrals. Two studies reported lower drug-drug interactions and drug adverse events. Three studies reported better medication management by lowering the number of prescribed medications and providing the right dosage. Two papers reported lower significant events such as readmission or cardiovascular disease events. Three papers discussed alert fatigue and its influence on CDS implementation. Only one paper studied the implementation of SDoH in EHR.

4. Discussion

Our scoping review for the IMIA Yearbook showed a paucity of recently published CDS tools that have integrated novel social or biological data to support precision medicine. By expanding the breadth of precision medicine domains, our review shows that disease risks, SDoH, and systems to improve referral are starting to be implemented and evaluated. Such systems could advance the use of targeted therapies, increase cost-effectiveness, and improve patient outcomes such as changes in blood pressure and reduction in drug-drug interactions [[24],[32] [33] [34]].

Most CDS systems that integrated genetic data used common genetic variants that have been already evaluated as reported by Smith et al., within their literature review from 2021 [[14]]. However, new variants are being integrated into CDS, such as OPRM1 and CYP3A4, for opioid, antidepressant, and platelet inhibitor medication interactions. The scoping review showed that most CDS implementation mainly focused on cardiovascular diseases and drugs compared to other diseases such as cancer and diabetes that had fewer CDS implementations. Our review showed more studies focused on providing educational materials for providers and discussed the importance of offering training for CDS tools. However, only one study included educating patients and the community on pharmacogenomics testing; another recommended patient education on medication management [[22],[25]]. As discussed below, having one main disease as the primary focus or selected variants can stem from the barrier of implementing CDS for new diseases due to translational barriers and an abundance of guidelines.

4.1. Barriers to Implementing Precision Medicine in CDS

The low level of implementation of precision medicine CDS tools that address common domains such as cardiovascular or commonly screened variants is due to multiple barriers. Those barriers can be broken down into the following categories: Data barriers, Knowledge barriers, data standard barriers, gaps in research translation, and infrastructure barriers.

4.1.1. Data barriers

The data needed to implement precision medicine models are usually unavailable at the point of care due to incompleteness and limited early access to data implemented in precision medicine models. Genomic sequencing is generally performed after healthcare providers order genomic testing. However, some precision medicine knowledge and data barriers limit the implementation of precision medicine into CDS. The Genomic Medicine Working Group reported that incorporating multiple genes and related clinical knowledge is still a major issue in implementation [[35]]. Most diseases are caused or affected by multiple genes; hence, accurate risk assessment requires accessing all relevant genetic loci and relevant clinical factors [[36],[37]]. Currently, CDS systems cannot combine the data from genomic and non-genomic data sources [[17],[38]].

4.1.2 Knowledge barriers

The need for genomic education and literacy can limit the adoption and implementation of precision medicine in CDS [[39]]. In a systematic review of barriers to implementing precision medicine in practice, Qureshi reported that lack of patients' and providers' knowledge in genetics, and limited experience, education, and training in pharmacogenomics are common knowledge barriers [[40],[41]]. Incorporating precision medicine knowledge (e.g., pharmacogenomics, genotyping) into training, undergraduate or postgraduate education, or learning from collogues programs can increase awareness and adoption [[22],[40],[41]]. Obeng found that presenting genetic knowledge, through one hour training session, clearly and effectively can improve prescriber systems' implementation and adoption effectiveness [[20]].

4.1.3. Data Standard Barriers

The lack of standards can be another barrier. Genomic sequencing is mainly performed by separate laboratories that do not provide the data in a computable standardized format and provide a subset of the genomics data, which can limit the potential of genomics analysis [[36],[37]]. In addition, there is a lack of standardization on reporting variants with unknown significance, rare or private significance, where some laboratories do not report those variants due to concerns about quality control and assurance [[42]]. Welch et al. included genomic data standards as one of the pillars of using whole genome sequence in CDS [[37]]. The absence of standard reporting of pharmacogenomic test results and standard representation of genomic data can limit the implementation of pharmacogenomics tools in one healthcare institution and affect its scalability when deploying the CDS tools across different institutions [[35],[43]]. In SDoH, only one manuscript described the implementation of SDoH. It concluded that a standard SDoH ontology plays a crucial role in integrating SDoH data in the EHR and building precise CDS tools [[29]]. Developing unified standards to store and exchange genetics and other precision medicine data is a vital step to scale the integration effort, especially in fields still in their infancy regarding data standardization, such as pharmacogenomics [[44]].

4.1.4. Gaps in Research Translation

Translating and adopting precision medicine models such as machine learning and genotyping models is challenging [[45],[46]]. Models are trained and evaluated in research environments on data preprocessed. The differences between the real world and the research environment can slow down the adoption of the model [[43]]. For instance, the requirements of genomic arrays and essays in clinical laboratories differ in research laboratories, which can delay the implementation in clinical workflow [[47]].

Ethical implications are a barrier to translating research to the real world. Health inequity, such as having fewer recommendations for genetic or lower germline genetic testing and disease detection for non-white patients, can lead to biased models hindering or skewing translation into clinical settings [[26],[30],[48]]. Varughese et al., reported that some oncologists expressed ethical concerns with a randomized trial design [[19]]. In addition, some studies are conducted in single-institution settings, which limits the generalizability of the model performance [[28]]. Ensuring successful translation may require non-randomized trials, adjusting for bias, performing multi-institutional models and knowledge representation and considering the ethical implications of applying precision models.

4.1.5. Infrastructure

Few EHR institutions can allocate sufficient local effort to create a comprehensive strategy to integrate genomics into the EHR. While vendors have started to address the gap, it is still early for widespread adoption [[49]]. The current infrastructure must be better equipped to integrate multi-omics data such as genomics, environmental, or biometric data. Zorn reported that current EHR systems do not support capturing detailed clinical information required for genetic assessment [[31]]. Current EHR systems may require the proper infrastructure or standard data containers to store genetic or environmental data, especially when incorporating multi-omics data and accounting for security requirements [[37],[42],[50]]. Moreover, patients usually encounter technical issues, whether during the consent process for genetic testing, being enrolled in trials, or providing SDoH or environmental data, which require additional infrastructure resources [[43],[51]].

Out of 54 papers included for full-text review, 35 studies investigated the usage of precision medicine in CDS and discussed the possible usages but lacked the implementation stage. Other reviews and survey studies that examined the implementation of precision medicine in CDS found fewer implemented CDS tools. In a review that focused on improving patient outcomes using pharmacogenetic interventions implemented in EHR, the authors screened 10,725 papers and included 12 papers in the review [[52]].

Our scoping review included studies that implemented other aspects of precision medicine, such as SDoH and individualized risk score. The review has several limitations: first, the strategy may have missed relevant studies due to the diversity of keywords that may be attached to articles. Second, we limited our search to studies in PubMed with full-text access.

5. Conclusion

The implementation of precision medicine in CDS improves the treatment and diagnosis process. Pharmacogenomics is still the main precision medicine implemented in EHR with the target to prescribe the right drug. The number of implemented precision medicine CDS is still low. Knowledge barriers and infrastructure challenges can slow down the implementation. However, our scoping review demonstrates that additional precision medicine domains, such as disease risk, clinical referrals, and SDoH, are motivating the creation of CDS. Future reviews should examine the implementation trends in precision medicine, particularly beyond the use of genomics data.
