Placenta tissue study for pregnancy complications
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at placental tissue to better understand pregnancy conditions like preeclampsia and recurrent miscarriage. It may help improve future care for these conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are pregnant and having a planned C-section after a full-term pregnancy, or you are having a C-section for a breech baby or previous uterine surgery.
- You have had repeated miscarriages without a known cause and are having a procedure to examine your uterus.
- You have been diagnosed with preeclampsia and are having a C-section.
- You are going into labor before 37 weeks and are having a C-section for a low-birth-weight baby or abnormal fetal position.
- You must be 18 years or older and able to give informed consent.

This study looks at the placenta and the area where the baby meets the mother's body to understand preeclampsia, a serious pregnancy complication. If you are between 9 and 15 weeks pregnant with one baby and are already scheduled for a placenta test, you may be able to join.
This study builds a repository (a database of samples and health information) from pregnant people to better understand and improve how we care for placenta-related conditions. By joining, you help researchers learn more about both high-risk and typical pregnancies, which could lead to better care for future families.
This study collects samples from pregnant people with preeclampsia (a serious pregnancy blood-pressure condition) and from healthy pregnancy controls. Researchers will study tiny particles (“exosomes”) to see how they differ and whether these signals could help explain or improve care for preeclampsia.
This study collects placenta tissue (or tissue from an abortion) from women at the Grenoble University Hospital to better understand pregnancy problems linked to the placenta. By participating, you help researchers learn more about conditions that affect pregnant women and their babies.
This study looks at how the placenta is working in pregnancies that are planned for cesarean delivery after at least 37 weeks. Researchers compare different pregnancy situations (including some common complications) and check placenta function to better understand placental health.
This study looks at how cells in the placenta handle stress in pregnancies with complications like preeclampsia or poor fetal growth. It aims to understand why some placentas don't work well, which could lead to better treatments.
