Intervention model description: Approximately 100,000 patients are clinically managed by El Rio providers each year. A PHQ-2 is routinely completed by all visiting patients at El Rio health to screen for depression. Patients who screen positive on the PHQ-2 subsequently take the PHQ-9, a similar but more sensitive and specific depression assessment tool. For our study, a total of 350 patients will be recruited and randomized to PGx-guided antidepressant therapy (n= 175) or treatment as usual (n =175). Patients who are currently clinically managed for depression will be eligible for participation as well. Patients who are pregnant, have a history of major depressive disorder, or a concurrent diagnosis of other psychiatric issues will be excluded. Patients who will not be treated with antidepressants will be excluded
Primary purpose: TREATMENT

Brief summary: In this study, we hypothesize PGx guided testing can improve outcomes related to treatment of moderate and severe depression among El Rio Community Health patients. We anticipate patients randomized to the OneOme RightMed® PGx test will demonstrate a greater improvement of depressive symptoms and will have a higher proportion of subjects reporting response and remission than those receiving standard care.

Our purpose is to determine the effectiveness and feasibility of implementing a pharmacogenomic (PGx) approach to prescribing antidepressant medication in an underserved, community health center patient population.

Detailed description: In this study, we hypothesize PGx guided testing can improve outcomes related to treatment of moderate and severe depression among El Rio Community Health patients.

Our purpose is to determine the effectiveness and feasibility of implementing a pharmacogenomic (PGx) approach to prescribing antidepressant medication in an underserved, community health center patient population.

Primary Outcomes:

1. Changes in patient depressive ratings will be the primary endpoint in this study. The primary outcome will be measured using the validated Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) depression rating scale, administered verbally to participants.

   Depression response and remission rates (proportion of subjects achieving or not achieving), in the control and intervention arm will be directly compared at baseline, 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks.
2. Patient progression from primary care to El Rio behavioral health (BH) specialty care will also be monitored in this study. We will directly compare the proportion of subjects in the control and intervention arm requiring BH consultation at any point in the study.

Secondary Outcomes:

1. Medication changes - Number of antidepressant medication changes and/or dose adjustments per subject from baseline to study endpoint.
2. Medication congruence - Alignment of physicians to RightMed test recommendations in control and intervention arm (guided vs unguided) and time to achieve optimal medication selection (green bin).

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* 18-80 years of age
* PHQ-9 score ≥ 10
* Suffer from Major Depressive Disorder meeting DSM-V criteria and meet at least one of the following:

  * Either new to antidepressant treatment or currently taking medication for less than 6 weeks.
  * Inadequate efficacy after at least 6 weeks of antidepressant treatment
  * Have discontinued antidepressant treatment due to adverse events or intolerability within the last 6 weeks
* Must be able to understand requirements of the study and provide written informed consent (English or Spanish)

Exclusion Criteria:

* Any patient for whom providing a buccal swab sample would be contraindicated or not possible.
* Patients taking antidepressants for \> 6 months consecutively prior to baseline unless determined to be inadequate efficacy and PCP looking to change medication.
* Subjects diagnosed as not having or depression.
* Patients with history of prior PGx testing
* Inability to provide informed consent
* Current diagnosis of bipolar disorder type I or II, psychosis, schizophrenia and/or schizoaffective disorder
* Inability to attend scheduled study visits
* Patients who are known to be pregnant or lactating
