About the research

ASPIRE will be a multi-site, prospective, two-part longitudinal, noninterventional observational cohort study of nulliparous singleton pregnant women to evaluate biomarkers from blood and ocular imaging for prediction of pregnancy complications \[i.e., preeclampsia (PE), fetal growth restriction (FGR), and gestational diabetes (GDM)\] and risk of adverse outcomes.

Who may be able to participate?

The list below is the sponsor’s full registry wording. It can include conditions, prior treatment, test results and other requirements. A match in search does not mean you qualify.

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age ≥18 years
  • Nulliparous (no previous births ≥20wk GA)
  • Single viable fetus at the dating ultrasound scan with an ultrasound estimated gestational age of 10 0/7-17 6/7 weeks of gestation
  • Ability to consent and comply with study procedures and follow-up

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Multiple gestation
  • Inability to provide blood
  • Known fetal chromosomal abnormalities or structural Anomaly (a structural or functional defect with the following three characteristics: 1) of prenatal origin; 2) present at the time of live birth or fetal demise, or in utero; 3) affecting (or has the propensity to affect) the health, survival, or physical or cognitive functioning of the individual
  • Known or anticipated inability to complete study follow-up through delivery at the study site (e.g., planned relocation, transfer of obstetric care to a non-participating institution, or other circumstances making delivery outcome data unavailable)
  • Current or recent (within two months) participation in an interventional clinical study.

Study population

Nulliparous women of child-bearing age \>=18 years with singleton pregnancies exhibiting diverse demographics with racial and ethnic backgrounds representative of the general US and UK populations.

Treatment, groups and participation

The registry may describe treatments and study duration without a complete visit calendar. Ask the study team for the exact schedule, procedures, risks, costs and alternatives. Keep your usual care plan unless your treating clinician tells you otherwise.

Assignment
Not reported
Masking
Not reported
Blood Based Biomarkers, Derivation Cohort

To support the identification of cut-offs for risk stratification for conditions such as preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction and gestational diabetes at different timepoints in gestation, in blood-based biomarker products currently in development.

Other: None (this is an observational study with no intervention)

Blood Based Biomarkers, Validation Cohort

To perform clinical validation of blood-based biomarkers using cut-offs at different timepoints in gestation, as defined above for identification of pregnancies at increased risk.

Other: None (this is an observational study with no intervention)

Retinal Imaging, Development of Algorithm

To develop a retinal imaging algorithm for risk prediction for preeclampsia.

Other: None (this is an observational study with no intervention)

Retinal Imaging, Validation of Algorithm

To validate the accuracy and test parameters of retinal imaging for risk prediction and management of pregnancies at risk for preeclampsia.

Other: None (this is an observational study with no intervention)

None (this is an observational study with no intervention) OTHER

This is an observational study evaluating biomarkers from blood and ocular imaging for prediction of pregnancy complications and associated risks \[i.e., preeclampsia (PE), fetal growth restriction (FGR), and gestational diabetes (GDM)\].

What researchers are measuring

Outcome measures describe what is being studied. They are not proof that a treatment works.

Primary measures

Identification of cut-offs for risk stratification for conditions such as preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction and gestational diabetes at different timepoints in gestation.

Time frame: From enrollment to approximately 4 weeks postpartum

Validation of the performance of predefined blood-based biomarkers (and/or algorithms) for prediction of PE, FGR, and GDM. Performance will be evaluated against standardized clinical phenotypes.

To develop a retinal imaging algorithm for risk prediction for preeclampsia.

Time frame: From enrollment to approximately 4 weeks postpartum

Validation of the accuracy of retinal imaging and associated algorithms for risk stratification of pre-eclampsia; specifically, performance will be evaluated in predicting preterm PE, early-onset PE, term PE, and PE with severe features.
