PErsonalized Genomics for Prenatal Abnormalities Screening USing Maternal Blood (PEGASUS-2)
April 3, 2023 updated by: François Rousseau, CHU de Quebec-Universite Laval
PErsonalized Genomics for Prenatal Abnormalities Screening USing Maternal Blood : Towards First Tier Screening and Beyond
This project aims to provide high- quality evidence to inform decisions by health care organisations about using first-tier non-invasive prenatal screening (NIPS) to replace traditional screening tests for trisomy 21, and potentially to screen for other fetal chromosome anomalies.
We will compare the current screening approach of second-tier NIPS with the use of first-tier NIPS in a large cohort of pregnant women.
Study Overview
Status
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Detailed Description
There is some data on the performance of NIPS as a first tier screening test but our systematic review has shown that no trial comparing the effectiveness (utility) of 2nd-tier NIPS with that of first-tier NIPS has been published .
Further it is important for health care decision makers to have evidence produced in Canada since the geographical context of healthcare can affect uptake as well as patient decision and thus their healthcare trajectories.
There is a need for a trial that is between an explanatory trial and a pragmatic trial to provide the types of answer that we aim to document in the present state of knowledge on NIPS-based screening strategies in Canada.
Our Objective is to perform a pan-Canadian large-scale comparative utility (clinical outcomes) study of first-tier NIPS (expanded or not) as compared to the new standard of care (NIPS as a 2nd tier test performed much later during pregnancy and only in high risk pregnancies).

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: Standard of care (2nd tier NIPS)
For the standard-of-care arm (2nd tier NIPS) women will undergo Traditional integrated prenatal screening i.e. traditional biochemical (+/- NT) and those with a positive screen for T21 or T18 will be offered Second-tier Non-invasive prenatal screening (NIPS) (for T21, T18, T13) or Invasive prenatal testing for fetal aneuploidy.
Ultrasound examination in first and second trimester will be done based on clinical care practice ordered by health care provider.
Pregnant women with a positive NIPS test will be offered Invasive prenatal testing for fetal aneuploidy (fetal chromosome analysis).

biochemical prenatal screening with or without nuchal translucency by US
Other Names:
genomics based NIPS after a positive traditional prenatal screen
Other Names:
amniocentesis or chorionic villi sampling (CVS)
|
Experimental: First-tier NIPS
For the intervention arm (1st tier NIPS) women will receive First-tier Non-invasive prenatal screening (NIPS) i.e. provide a blood sample between 10-13+5 weeks gestation with NIPS results within 7 - 10 days of sample collection.
Ultrasound examination in first and second trimester will be done based on clinical care practice ordered by health care provider.
In case of a failed NIPS test (expected to be between 2% and 4% of samples), a new blood sample will be drawn for NIPS retest as well as for a traditional SIPS(serum integrated prenatal screening) or QUAD(quadruple marker prenatal screening) screen (depending on gestational age).
Pregnant women with a positive NIPS test will be offered Invasive prenatal testing for fetal aneuploidy (fetal chromosome analysis).

Change in PROMIS-29 Score
Time Frame: At weeks of gestation 10-13, week 16 and week 22
|
The PROMIS-29 assesses seven health domains: physical function, anxiety, depression, fatigue, sleep disturbance, pain interference, and ability to participate in social roles and activities.
Each of the seven domains has four questions which are scored on a five-point Likert scale.
The PROMIS-29 scales will be scored using a T-score metric method available at the Assessment Center website (http://assessmentcenter.net).
A score of 50 points represents the population average for each scale, and 10 points represent one standard deviation.
Higher scores mean more of the specific scale's construct, which may indicate a desirable or an undesirable outcome.
The assessment will be done at recruitment (10-13 weeks of gestation) and at week 16 and week 22 of gestation.

At weeks of gestation 10-13, week 16 and week 22

Change in PROMIS Emotional Distress - Anxiety - Short Form 8a Score
Time Frame: At weeks of gestation 10-13, 16 and 22
|
The PROMIS-Anxiety short form assesses anxiety with 8 questions.
The form includes 8 items and uses a scale of 1-5 (1=Never, 2=Almost never, 3= Sometimes, 4=Often, 5=Almost always).
The raw score is the sum of the points for each response.
A higher than average raw score indicates higher than average anxiety.
A higher score represents higher levels of anxiety.
The assessment will be done at recruitment (10-13 weeks of gestation) and at week 16 and week 22 of gestation.
