From MedGenome
MedGenome is driven to enable clinicians to deliver the bes t outcomes to
their patients. Our passion to deliver actionable insights to clinicians has
resulted in the development of “Claria” - a suite of NGS (Next-Generation
Sequencing) technology-bas ed solutions for reproductive testing.
Claria offers the most accurate Non-Invasive Prenatal Screening Test (NIPT),
the Genetic Carrier Screening Test and the Preimplantation Genetic
Screening/Diagnosis (PGS/PGD).
Additionally, Claria offers an absolutely free, on-demand pre and post-test
genetic counselling to all your patients.

3. Claria NIPT now screens for microdeletions
Chromosomal abnormalities in India
Claria NIPT
MedGenome Claria NIPT is a simple, safe and non-invasive prenatal screening test that
provides assurance to expectant parents with accurate genetic information about their baby.
This screening test can be performed from as early as the 9th week of a pregnancy. Compared
higher sensitivity and lower false positive rate for the conditions screened.
Claria NIPT now covers clinically relevant microdeletions that occur in 1-1.7% of all
deletion exceeds the risk for Down syndrome. These sub-chromosomal abnormalities
which collectively have a population incidence of approximately 1 in 1000 will result in
severe physical and /or intellectual impairments.
A woman’s risk of having a term pregnancy with certain chromosomal abnormalities
increases with age.
risk for Down syndrome
• High prevalence of chromosomal abnormalities: 1 in 200 births
• Over 25 million births every year in India
• Over 130,000 births with chromosomal abnormalities in India
every year
• Incidence of Down Syndrome is 1 in 850 live births in India
• 1 in 1000 is the population incidence for microdeletions, the
disorders included are 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, 1p36 deletion
syndrome, Cri du chat syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome,
Angel man syndrome*
* Combined prevalence using higher end of published ranges from Gross et al. Prenatal Diagnosis
2011; 39, 259-266; and www.genetests.org. Total prevalence may range from 1/1071 - 1/2206.
4. The risk of having a baby with Down Syndrome*
For a 26 yr old woman:1 in 1300
For a 36 yr old woman:1 in 270
The risk factor increases by almost5x
However, the incidence of microdeletions is independent of maternal age.

5. Why screening is important
Claria NIPT does not test for the gender of the foetus.
Aneuploidy Microdeletions
What are the chromosomal and structural
anomalies detected by Claria NIPT?
Common aneuploidies T21, T18, T13, Sex Chromosomes abnormalities, triploidy and
5 common microdeletion syndromes from fetal DNA obtained from maternal blood.
Unlike other tests, Claria NIPT also tests for triploidy and vanishing twin. It is the only test
that differentiates between maternal and fetal DNA, which helps avoid false positives.
• Trisomy 21 (Down Syndrome)
• Trisomy 18 (Edwards’ Syndrome)
• Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome)
• Triploidy
• Monosomy X (Turner Syndrome)
• Klinefelter Syndrome, Triple X
Syndrome, Jacob’s Syndrome
• 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome
• 1p36 Deletion Syndrome
• Prader-Willi Syndrome
• Angelman Syndrome
• Cri-du-chat Syndrome
• Reassurance for expecting parents
• Early information for better management
• Preparation for the birth and early
intervention wherever possible
