QNatal® Advanced: Platform Discussion
Massively Parallel Shotgun Sequencing
(MPSS) platform is used to detect maternal
and fetal cfDNA
MPSS can eludicate the chromosome of origin for a
particular DNA fragment (see next slide)
MPSS cannot differentiate between maternal and fetal
DNA fragments
Bioinformatic analysis is used to determine the
representation of fetal cfDNA
GC normalization: routine correction to account for
suboptimal amplification of GC-rich regions

At any gestational age thereafter without restriction
Whole genome massively parallel shotgun sequencing (MPSS)
Measures and reports fetal fraction as either sufficient or insufficient for analysis using a 5% cut-off
(Soon to change to reporting an actual numeric value.)

Positive and Negative Predictive Value (PPV and NPV)
Unlike sensitivity and specificity, PPV and NPV are dependent upon condition prevalence
PPV: percentage of patients with a positive test who truly have the condition
PPV (%) =
(true positive)
(true positive + false positive)
x 1000
PPV for NIPS is lower in the general pregnancy population, as the incidence of chromosomal
aneuploidy is lower in these patients:
In a test with 99.9% sensitivity and
specificity
20 years
• 1/800 risk for T21 at 10
weeks
• PPV = 55.6%
25 years
• 1/710 risk for T21 at 10
weeks
• PPV = 58.5%
35 years
• 1/470 risk for T21 at 10
weeks
• PPV = 84.4%
40 years
• 1/50 risk for T21 at 10
weeks
• PPV = 95.3%

Case 1
QNatal® Advanced order received on 07/15/2015
Indication: Advanced Maternal Age
Patient Demographics –
36 year old
11w 6d gestation
1 fetus listed
Reported on 07/28/15 –
Positive, T21
Positive, T13
Our assumption at this point was that a concurrent aneuploidy would have been embryonically
lethal
17
Case 1 (cont.)
Z-scores –
Trisomy 21: 11.8
Trisomy 13: 5.9
Fetal Fraction: 7%
All other autosome and sex chrom Z scores within normal range
Clinical Correlation –
Originally a twin gestation
Co-twin demise at about 9 weeks gestation
Follow-up
Spontaneous abortion of surviving twin. Unfortunately, cytogenetics studies were not performed
18

Hypotheses
The lower Z-score for chromosome 13 (5.9) could be attributed to trisomy 13 in the co-demise
twin, which had occurred about 3 weeks earlier
The higher Z-score for chromosome 21 (11.8) could be attributed to trisomy 21 in the surviving
twin, which was still viable at the time of draw
19
What do we know about twins?
Vanishing twins –
Associated with Fertility procedures and Advanced Maternal Age (AMA)
Fetuses at higher risk for aneuploidy
Extrapolating from aneuploidy observed in POC specimens (~60%), approximately 0.11% of NIPS involve a
chromosomally abnormal vanishing twin.*
This is reported to account for 15% of false positive NIPS**
Fetal fraction indistinguishable from viable twin gestations
