Genetic testing for inherited bleeding disorders
Gene panel for bleeding: This analysis will look at a list of genes known to be associated with rare coagulation, platelet, connective tissue, and bleeding disorders. There are currently 318 genes on the panel however this list may be updated throughout the study. Genes of study include those on the the International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) TIER-1 (the first group of genes are the diagnostic-grade) and TIER-2 gene list, as well as additional genes identified in published research.

Am I eligible for this trial?
Only the trial siteTrial siteA hospital or clinic where a study is actually run.Read more → can decide whether someone can take part. Concord cannot make that determination, and neither can any tool that has not examined you.

The useful next step is to bring this trial to your doctor. Answering a few questions first gives them something concrete to review.

About This Trial
The investigators aim to test the introduction of genomic testing early in the diagnostic pathway for inherited bleeding disorders in patients who have not received a diagnosis after first-line testing. The goal of this clinical trial is to test the introduction of genomic testing early in the diagnostic pathway for patients referred to Hematology for a suspected inherited bleeding disorder. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does adding early genomic testing increase the number of patients who are diagnosed? 2. Does adding early genomic testing decrease the overall time to diagnosis? 3. Is it cost-effective to include early genomic testing in the diagnostic pathway? The investigators will compare with a control group of participants who are receiving standard care (no early genomic testing). Participants will randomized to a standardized diagnostic testing plus early genomic testing group or to the standardized diagnostic testing group only (with the possibility of being offered genomic testing after 1 year in the study).
