New GENOmic Predictor for COmplications Risk in Type 2 DIAbetes
Interventions
Polygenic Risk Score
The Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) is a Class II software as a medical device (SaMD) that estimates a person's level of risk of developing a disease or associated complications before clinical signs appear. The device uses the genomic profile of the person in combination with some clinical data (i.e., age, sex, age of onset of diabetes) to compute this risk. This device further provides recommendations for personalized management of T2D for patients based on their risk score.

About This Trial
The goal of this pragmatic trial is to provide Real World Evidence (RWE) on the impact of the result of a polygenic risk prediction test of cardiorenal complications of T2D, so that more patients at high risk of these complications achieve over an 18 months period, recommended therapeutic targets. This will be demonstrated as a significant improvement in a composite value including HbA1c or systolic blood pressure (SBP) or albuminuria (UACR), or glomerular filtration rate (GFR) lowering. Researchers will compare the recommended therapeutic targets of uninformed and informed patients to see if the knowledge of the risk by the patients and their treating physicians improves achievement of these targets. Participants will: Have a saliva sampling to determine the genetic risk. Visit the clinic once every 3 months for checkups and tests Answer two questionnaires on quality of life.
