NCT ID NCT06808880
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is working on a new blood test for pregnant women that can check for serious genetic conditions like cystic fibrosis, spinal muscular atrophy, and sickle cell disease. Researchers will collect blood samples from 4,000 pregnant women who are at higher risk of passing on these disorders. The goal is to see if the test can accurately tell if the baby is affected, which could help families prepare and make informed decisions.
