Implications of Maternal 45,X Mosaicism as a Secondary Genomic Finding Following Cell-Free DNA Sequencing During Pregnancy: A Deep Phenotype Study
Protocol ID
NCT05548881
Lead Sponsor
Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD)
Brief Summary
Background:
Mosaicism is a condition in which cells within the same person have a different genetic
makeup. Sometimes, a type of mosaicism called 45,X may not be discovered in a woman until
she undergoes routine tests during pregnancy. Little is known about how 45,X mosaicism
may affect a person s long-term health.
Objective:
This natural history study will look for health risks in people with 45,X mosaicism.
Eligibility:
People aged 18 to 99 years who during pregnancy were found to have 45,X mosaicism.
Healthy volunteers are also needed.
Design:
Participants will stay in the clinic for 2 days. They will have many tests:
A physical exam, including measurements of the body.
A gynecological exam, including genital measurements. Photos may be taken, with consent.
Blood tests, with blood drawn over an 8-week period. An oral glucose test for diabetes
may also be done.
Tests of heart function. Participants will have small stickers attached to wires place on
their chest, arms, and legs.
Hearing tests.
Ultrasound exams, which use echoing sound waves to create images of organs such as the
heart and kidneys.
Imaging scans including x-rays, MRI, and DXA. The DXA uses x-rays to measure bone density
and body fat. Other types of scans will capture images of the liver.
Participants will complete 4 surveys with questions about their sexual function, anxiety,
depression, and health.
Participants may remain in the study for 20 years. For 5 years, they will have a yearly
follow-up by phone or email. They may have follow-up visits at the clinic every 5 years.
Detailed Description
Study Description:
This is a deep phenotype study of women who are determined to have 45,X mosaicism as a
secondary genomic finding following cfDNA sequencing during pregnancy.
Objectives:
- To define and describe a comprehensive phenotype of women with confirmed 45,X
mosaicism initially found by cfDNA including cardiovascular, skeletal, metabolic,
reproductive, audiometric, immunologic, and psychological functions.
- To compare the comprehensive phenotype of women with confirmed 45,X mosaicism with a
control population (a. age and BMI-matched female controls without 45, X mosaicism
at the initial visit and b. NHANES age-and BMI-matched female data for the
applicable year.)
- To explore changes in phenotype for both 45,X mosaicism and control groups with
somatic loss of X chromosome over time.
Endpoints:
Primary Endpoint: (i) Hypertension (as defined in 2017 by the American College of
Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA)
