INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
A prospective, open, randomised implementation study in paediatric cancer patients. The study aims to determine whether a personalised approach will result in an overall reduction in clinically relevant adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and to evaluate the economic and quality of life impacts. Participants will be randomised to receive personalised guided prescribing of supportive care therapy (study arm) or standard of care (control arm) for a period of 12 weeks. The follow up period includes prospective patient reporting of symptoms and quality of life through electronically delivered surveys, for a maximum of 12 months.

- Must also be taking a medication for which there is an established CPIC guideline available.
- Parent or patient is able and willing to give consent for patient to take part and be followed up for at least 12 weeks.

Interventions
Whole genome sequencing with reporting on current standard of care (SoC) pharmacogenomic variants (TPMT, NUD15) where applicable (i.e, for patients with diagnosis of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia) by Week 1. Whole genome sequencing on a broader number of actionable variants as per international guidelines for cancer supportive care (identical to study arm) will be reported on at Week 13.
