New prenatal DNA test for high-risk pregnancies
Part of Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study tests a new blood test that can screen for genetic problems in babies during pregnancy. It may find more conditions than standard tests, especially for pregnancies with certain ultrasound findings or other risk factors.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older and pregnant.
- You are between 9 weeks and 25 weeks 6 days pregnant.
- You are carrying one baby (not twins or more).
- Your pregnancy has a higher chance of genetic issues, such as a thicker nuchal fold (NT ≥3.5 mm), other ultrasound markers, or a structural problem seen on ultrasound.
- You agree to have follow-up and at least one genetic test on a sample from the baby (like from amniocentesis or after birth).
- You have not had cancer, a blood transfusion, organ transplant, or cell therapy during this pregnancy.

This trial uses genetic testing to better understand the cause of a newborn’s birth defect and to help doctors choose more personalized treatment. It may help families get clearer answers and more targeted care.
This study looks at using whole genome sequencing in newborns and families with ongoing pregnancies, including those conceived naturally or with fertility treatments. It aims to better understand and manage genetic disease risks early.
This research study tests a new way to screen newborns for hundreds of genetic diseases using a sample of their blood or saliva. It aims to find conditions early so your baby can get the right care sooner.
This study uses advanced genetic testing (whole genome sequencing) on tissue samples from fetuses with structural abnormalities detected on ultrasound. The goal is to identify genetic causes of birth defects to help with diagnosis and understanding of your baby's condition.
This study looks at a new blood test to screen for single-gene disorders (conditions caused by changes in one gene) during pregnancy. It may help if you or your baby's father carry a genetic disorder, or if an ultrasound shows signs of a possible genetic condition.
This study tests a safer blood test to check for certain genetic disorders during pregnancy, instead of an invasive procedure like amniocentesis. It's for pregnant women who are at risk of passing on a known genetic condition.
