Completed
Conditions
Down Syndrome
Aneuploidy
Interventions
Other: Maternal blood draw of 30 to 50ml
Registration Number
NCT01052688
Lead Sponsor
Sequenom, Inc.
Brief Summary

To collect samples for the purpose of developing and optimizing an in vitro noninvasive prenatal diagnostic (NIPD) test. The NIPD test employs circulating cell free (ccff) DNA extracted from whole blood samples collected from women who are pregnant with a fetus previously determined to have a chromosomal abnormality. The NIPD result will be compared to the standard test results obtained from other test methods such as karyotype, FISH, QF-PCR, and/or any commercially available NIPD test.
