NIPT- just fetal trisomy screening or more?
NGS course: genomic resequencing in medical diagnostics 2018 5 september 2018
Diane Van Opstal, laboratory specialist clinical genetics
1. First trimester screening (combined test): risk calculation of trisomy 21, 13 and 18 • Between 9-13+6 wks of GA • Maternal serum concentrations of PAPP-A and β-HCG and US measurement of fetal nuchal translucency (NT) and maternal age: if risk > 1/200 invasive testing.
2. Fetal anomaly ultrasound scan: Between 18-22 wks of GA
Non-invasive prenatal screening
CT: identify fetuses at risk for +13, +18 and +21
Trisomy 21 Down syndrome (prev 1/700)
Trisomy 18 Edwards syndrome Prev 1/5000
Trisomy 13 Patau syndrome Prev 1/16000
o 1 april 2014: start of NIPT in the Netherlands for pregnant women at increased risk:
-Abnormal first trimester combined test results (risk > 1/200, normal NT) -Medical indication (e.g. previous child with T13, T18 or T21, parental robertsonian translocation)
o Trident 1: choice between NIPT or diagnostic testing (CVS/AC)
o 1 april 2017: NIPT for all pregnant women:
o Trident 2: choice between NIPT or CT
TRIDENT
The beginning
“Fetus-derived Y sequences were detected in 24 (80%) of the 30 maternal plasma samples………. may have implications for non-invasive prenatal diagnosis…………” -NIPT with fetal cells: expensive and time-consuming
-presence of tumour DNA in plasma of cancer patient
(cf)-DNA in maternal blood is partially fetal
Fetal fraction: (Wang et al., 2013, Prenat Diagn, 33, 662–666)

Bij een trisomie: extra stukken DNA van dat chromosoom aanwezig
Analyse met WISECONDOR (Straver et al., 2013)
Developped by VU
It relies on a within-sample comparison: bins (1 Mb) on chromosome of interest are compared to look-alike bins on other chromosomes within the sample
On the basis of a reference set of
normal samples, look-alikes are determined
Enables the detection of whole
chromosome aneuploidies, but also
subchromosomal aberrations (> 20 Mb) NB: Bins 1 Mb, coverage 0.5, reads 50nt
10.000 reads/bin, 5% fetal= 500 fetal reads/bin

o In patients with an elevated risk for trisomy 13,18 or 21, genome wide
cfDNA testing reveals a chromosomal aberration other than trisomy 13,18 or 21 in 1/3 of cases with an abnormal result.
o Besides fetal chromosome aberrations, also CPM associated with an increased risk MCA (23%) and/or growth problems (27% <p2.3)
o these data show a significant risk for obstetric pathology and fetal anomalies
o we advise close obstetric surveillance in all cases of abnormal NIPT even if the fetal karyotype as determined by diagnostic testing is normal
o It seems to be clinically relevant to do genome-wide NIPT
Conclusions from Trident 1
Since April 2017 TRIDENT-2: choice CT or NIPT
Combinatietest blijft beschikbaar: Het betreft een proefimplementatie van NIPT waarbij vrouwen het recht hebben te kiezen voor de standaard screeningtest (combinatietest)
Choice with and without “nevenbevindingen”
Trident 2
-N=73.000 pregnant women chose NIPT ~ 42% of all pregnant women in the Netherlands (before the introduction of NIPT: 34% chose for screening with the CT (figures 2016)) -78% chose “with nevenbevindingen” -~ 3% of all pregnant women did a CT -0.3% T21 (PPV estimated: 75% practice > 90%) -0.1% T18 (PPV estimated: 24% practice > 90%) -0.1% T13 (PPV estimated: 23% practice ~50%) (compare to CT: 5%) -0.3% “nevenbevindingen”
Eerste resultaten 1ste jaar Trident 2
o Genome-wide NIPT (instead of targeted testing) is clinically useful in pregnancies with abnormal CT results (risk T21, T18, T13 > 1:200, normal NT)
o Also clinical utility in a general obstetric population?
o Further development of test to higher resolution will enable the detection of submicroscopic chromosome aberrations as well (background risk 1/100-1/200)
o NIPT for selecting pregancies at risk for “all” chromosome aberrations
