Pro-active Genetic Testing in Kidney Transplant Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of genetic mutations that increase the risk of cancer and other medically actionable diseases in kidney transplant patients and to assess the impact of genetic testing on subsequent surveillance for cancer.

Kidney Transplants Kidney transplant patients who are within one-year post transplant. |
Diagnostic Test: Genetic Health Screen Panel
This panel covers cardiomyopathy genes, and cancer genes. The results of this panel are reported as Positive (pathogenic or likely pathogenic mutation identified in one or more genes) or Negative (no pathogenic/likely pathogenic mutations identified).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Genetic mutations of cancer [1 year]
Number of subjects to have genetic mutations of cancer in kidney transplant patients receiving care at Mayo Clinic Arizona
Secondary Outcome Measures
- The impact of genetic testing [1 Year]
Current guidelines for cancer screening have limitations, as its mostly age based. Immunosuppression can lead to a increased risk of cancer in the kidney transplant population. By utilizing a multi gene panel we'll look for the number subjects with positive findings and see how recommendations of care change vs standard of care as recommended by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN). Genetic testing and family history may change the practice regarding cancer screening in subjects undergoing kidney transplant evaluation.
- Develop a Biorepository [1 year]
Create a biorepository based on whole exome sequencing and clinical data for future analysis
Other Outcome Measures
- Genetic mutations of cardiomyopathy [1 year]
Prevalence of genetic mutations for cardiomyopathies in kidney transplant recipients
