  • Objective

    Primary objective: The primary study objective is to develop and evaluate the test performance of a sgNIPT assay for the following disorders:
     CF (CFTR)
     SMA (SMN1)
     α-thalassemia (HBA1/HBA2)
     β-hemoglobinopathies including sickle cell disease (HBB)
    Secondary objectives: The secondary study objectives are to evaluate the test performance of a sgNIPT assay for one of the following disorders:
     Familial Mediterranean fever (MEFV)
     Gaucher disease (GBA)
     Phenylketonuria (PAH)
     Hexosaminidase A deficiency (including Tay-Sachs disease) (HEXA)
     Wilson disease (ATP7B)
     Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) (DHCR7)
     Familial dysautonomia (IKBKAP)
     Carnitine palmitoyl transferase deficiency type 2 (CPT2)
     Canavan disease (ASPA)
     Krabbe disease (GALC)
     Medium-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency (ACADM)
     Pompe disease (GAA)
     Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (PKHD1)
     Galactosemia (GALT)
     Additional genes as approved by the Medical Monitor
    Exploratory objectives:
     Investigate relationships between circulating placental DNA (fetal fraction) or other test parameters including potential genotypic markers, and pregnancy or neonatal outcomes
