Multiple Gestation Study

Completed
Conditions
Trisomy 18
Sex Chromosome Abnormalities
Trisomy 13
Trisomy 21
Registration Number
NCT02278536
Lead Sponsor
Natera, Inc.
Brief Summary

The objectives of the clinical study are to demonstrate the accuracy of our new NATUS diagnostic method to determine the genetic health of the developing fetuses in a multiple gestation pregnancy from a maternal blood sample. The long term goal of this study will be the development of a method of minimally invasive prenatal diagnosis that has a higher sensitivity and lower false positive rate in the intended population (e.g. multiple gestation pregnancies) than any currently available screening tests. This will result in fewer unnecessary amniocenteses and CVS procedures, which are associated with a risk of miscarriage.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The primary outcome will be to confirm the diagnostic capability of NATUS risk results classified as positive result for aneuploidy, negative result for aneuploidy or 'no call.'2 years

The chromosomal status will be determined from the CVS or amniocentesis results, if available. A cheek swab or saliva sample will be collected from live-born children if there are no CVS or amniocentesis results.
