Abstract

Objective. To estimate the feasibility of using a next-generation sequencing technique for the noninvasive prenatal diagnosis of fetal aneuploidies. Subjects and methods. The investigation enrolled 200 women at 10-20 weeks’ gestation (median 14 weeks). The results of noninvasive prenatal diagnosis were assessed by bioinformatically processing the data of sequencing the DNA isolated from the plasma of the pregnant women; the T-test was used to compare the sample means. Cytogenetic examination (G staining of chorionic villous, placental, and amniotic fluid cells by the standard protocol) was used as a comparison method. Results. Comparison with noninvasive prenatal diagnosis yielded identical results in 196 of the 200 cases. The investigators validly determined 17 of 19 samples with trisomy 21, 8 of 8 samples with trisomy 18, one sample with trisomy 16, one sample with trisomy 13, and 4 of 4 samples with monosomy X. There were false-negative results (2 samples with trisomy 21) for samples with low fetal DNA levels; and two false-positive results for one sample with trisomy 13 and one sample with monosomy X must have been due to placental mosaicism. Conclusion. By taking into account the high sensitivity and specificity obtained for evaluating aneuploidies of chromosomes 21, 18, and X and in defining a fetal gender (the presence of a Y chromosome), this test may be recommended for prenatal screening.
