IntroductionPreeclampsia (PE) is a leading cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity worldwide. However, current methods of screening are complicated and require special skill sets. In this observational study of prospectively collected samples, we wanted to evaluate if cell-free (cf) DNA could be an efficient biomarker for identification of at-risk patients.MethodsOne hundred patients attending a private prenatal clinic in Canada were enrolled in their first trimester of pregnancy and a blood draw was carried out at 11 + 0 to 14 + 2 weeks’ (timepoint A) and 17 + 6 to 25 + 5 weeks of gestation (timepoint B). CfDNA signals, namely concentration, fetal fraction, and fragment size distribution, were correlated with clinical outcomes in the test population to develop the logistic regression model.ResultsTwelve patients developed PE—four early-stage and eight late-stage PE. Significant differences were observed between PE patients and control cases for all three cfDNA signals at timepoint A, while both fetal fraction and concentration were significantly different between PE patients and control cases at timepoint B. Overall, the model had a sensitivity of up to 100% and specificity of up to 87.5% at Timepoint A.ConclusionThis proof-of-principle study showed that use of this logistic regression model could identify patients at risk of preeclampsia in the first trimester of pregnancy. |
