Personalized pain pills: gene test may cut opioid risks after hernia repair
NCT ID NCT06565546
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether using a genetic test (CYP2D6) to choose pain medications can improve pain control and quality of life for 100 adults undergoing elective ventral hernia repair. Participants receive either standard pain meds or meds guided by their genetic profile. The goal is to see if this personalized approach is feasible and effective.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
CYP2D6 genotype testing to guide opioid pain medication
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to personalized pain management that reduces side effects and improves recovery after hernia surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study (100 people) testing feasibility, not effectiveness. Genetic testing may not improve pain control for everyone.
