About this study

Official title: A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Relative Clinical Specificity Performance of the SEQureDx Trisomy Test in Pregnant Women at Low Risk for Fetal Chromosomal Aneuploidy

Pregnant women with low risk indicators for fetal chromosomal aneuploidy will be enrolled. Study blood will be collected in the first or second trimester at a scheduled prenatal screening visit, processed to plasma, and stored frozen until analysis. Each pregnancy will be followed until delivery and the birth outcome recorded.

Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • SEQureDx Trisomy TestDevice

    Plasma samples obtained from maternal blood will be tested using the SEQureDx Trisomy Test, an in vitro diagnostic test that measures circulating cell-free fetal DNA. The test detects the relative quantity of chromosome 21, which is associated with trisomy 21.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aneuploidy and Down Syndrome, run by Sequenom, Inc. at 27 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 27 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Estimate the false positive rate of SEQureDx Trisomy 21 Test (time frame: pregnancy outcome). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01597063, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Apr 2016.
