Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate a blood test and automated microfluidic test platform for the prenatal screening of fetal aneuploidy.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Trisomy 21 and Other Fetal Aneuploidy Diagnostic Test: blood test

Layout table for study information
Study Type : Observational
Estimated Enrollment : 2000 participants
Observational Model: Case-Control
Time Perspective: Prospective
Official Title: Fluidic Automated Screening for Trisomy Study I
Actual Study Start Date : July 15, 2017
Estimated Primary Completion Date : March 31, 2019
Estimated Study Completion Date : June 30, 2019

Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
positive for fetal aneuploidy Diagnostic Test: blood test
analysis of cell-free DNA in maternal plasma

negative for fetal aneuploidy Diagnostic Test: blood test
analysis of cell-free DNA in maternal plasma




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Comparison of blood test to fetal karyotype [ Time Frame: 21 months ]
    Maternal plasma cell-free DNA will be analyzed to determine copy number of specific chromosomes and compared to the fetal karyotype as obtained through invasive diagnostic testing of the fetus.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Subject is at least 18 years old and can provide informed consent;
  2. Subject has a viable singleton or twin pregnancy;
  3. Subject is confirmed to be at least 10 weeks, 0 days gestation at the time of the study blood draw;
  4. Subject is planning to undergo chorionic villus sampling and/or amniocentesis for the purpose of genetic analysis of the fetus because of a suspected fetal chromosomal anomaly based on cell-free DNA test results, standard serum screening result, or fetal ultrasound abnormality.
  5. OR the subject has already undergone chorionic villus sampling and/or amniocentesis and is known to have a fetus with a chromosomal abnormality confirmed by genetic analysis.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Subject (the mother) has known aneuploidy;
  2. Subject is pregnant with more than two fetuses or has had sonographic evidence of three or more gestational sacs at any time during pregnancy;
  3. Subject has a fetal demise (including natural or elective reduction) identified prior to consent;
  4. Subject has history of malignancy treated with chemotherapy and/or major surgery, or bone marrow transplant.
