About this study

Official title: A Prospective Clinical Study to Evaluate a Novel Non-invasive Prenatal Screening Method for Characterizing Fetal Whole Chromosome Aberrations and Other Major Defects and Deletions Found in the Maternal Blood.

The purpose of this study is to detect whole chromosome abnormalities in maternal blood.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to detect whole chromosome abnormalities on all chromosomes 13, 16, 18, 21, X and Y, in the fetus through analysis of cell free and compound sample DNA (cf DNA and cs DNA, respectively) in maternal blood. In addition, major deletions and duplications in chromosomes 1, 4, 5, and 22 will be detected.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Validate the prenatal aneuploidy laboratory developed test (LDT) with maternal blood samples from pregnant women who are undergoing invasive prenatal diagnosis

    A single 20 mL blood sample will be obtained from each subject during the first or second trimester, blind-coded, and transferred to the Sponsor Laboratory for processing to plasma.

    Subjects electing to undergo an invasive procedure for fetal Karyotyping (defined as standard cytogenetics and/or microarray, FISH, QF-PCR) will have the blood sample obtained prior to the procedure.

    The performance characteristics (sensitivity, specificity, negative and positive predictive value) of the laboratory developed test to detect whole chromosome abnormalities on all chromosomes 13, 16, 18, 21, X and Y will be determined using fetal karyotype on specimens obtained by chorionic villus sampling and/or genetic amniocentesis for those subjects who undergo these diagnostic procedures as part of their standard care as the gold standard.

    Measured: Participants will have a single visit and completion in study occurs once invasive procedure results have been recorded.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Down Syndrome and Edwards Syndrome, run by Progenity, Inc. at 10 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 9 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Validate the prenatal aneuploidy laboratory developed test (LDT) with maternal blood samples from pregnant women who are undergoing invasive prenatal diagnosis (time frame: Participants will have a single visit and completion in study occurs once invasive procedure results have been recorded.). 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 NCT02317965, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 28 Aug 2018.
