  • Have engaged with local antenatal care and will continue to do so through the remainder of their pregnancy.
  • Have had an antenatal obstetric ultrasound at ≥18 weeks of pregnancy or be willing to have an antenatal obstetric ultrasound at Screening if not already conducted.

Specific inclusion criteria for Japanese pregnant women:

  • Japanese participants are defined as individuals born in Japan, with both parents and 4 grandparents who were born in Japan.
