Biospecimen Retention: Samples With DNA
Detailed Description:
Whole blood specimens will be collected and processed to plasma. DNA will be extracted from the plasma.
| Estimated Enrollment: | 2000 |
| Study Start Date: | May 2011 |
| Estimated Study Completion Date: | March 2017 |
| Estimated Primary Completion Date: | December 2016 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
To collect specimens for the purpose of developing a prenatal aneuploidy test. The test will analyze circulating cell free fetal (ccff) nucleic acid from blood samples from pregnant women who have an increased risk indicator/s for fetal chromosomal aneuploidy and are undergoing invasive prenatal diagnosis by chorionic villus sampling (CVS) and/or genetic amniocentesis. The results of the ccff aneuploidy test will be compared to the chromosomal analysis obtained via CVS or genetic amniocentesis.
Eligibility| Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Senior) |
