Importance of Carrier Screening

The Need for Better Screening
• 1/100 babies are born with an inherited
disease1
• 20-30% of all infant deaths are due to
genetic disorders2
• 11.1% of pediatric hospital admissions
are for children with genetic disorders3
• Preconception screening for disease-causing mutations
and genetic counseling for carriers can reduce the
incidence of these diseases
• Incidence of Tay Sachs disease was reduced by 90% in
AJ due to awareness and screening4

Cystic Fibrosis (CF)
•
CF is the most common lifethreatening, genetic disorder in
Caucasians
• Despite widespread availability of carrier
screening, more than 2,500 babies are
born with cystic fibrosis each year
• The average survival age is late 30’s¹
• Individuals with CF endure chronic
symptoms with lifetime treatment costs
estimated over $2,000,000¹
• 1 in 25 Caucasians is a carrier of CF

Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA)
•
SMA is the leading genetic
cause of death in infants and
toddlers.
• 1/6,000 to 1/10,000 children are
born with the disease
• The most severe form (Type I)
manifests before 6 months of age
and generally results in death
before age two
• One in 40 to one in 50 people
(approximately 6 million Americans)
are carriers of the SMA gene.
Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a
genetic neuromuscular disease
characterized by muscle atrophy
and weakness.

Carrier Screening:
Assessing Inherited Disease in Couples
• Helps determine risk for
conceiving a child with an
inherited disease
• About 1 in 16 Caucasians is a
carrier for cystic fibrosis or
spinal muscular atrophy, the
most common autosomal
recessive diseases.
• Preconception carrier
screening for pathogenic gene
mutations and genetic
counseling can reduce the
incidence of disease
Fragile x syndrome does not follow this
inheritance pattern.

DNA Sequencing: The “Old” Way
• First human genome
- ~13 years
- ~ $3B
• At completion, cost to repeat
was $300M
• Routine clinical sequencing
was unaffordable

Next-Generation DNA Sequencing
• Massively parallel
chemistry and detection
- Faster
- Cheaper
• Revolutionizing Clinical

Next-Generation Sequencing: Technology Matters
• Genotyping
•
•
•
Used by many companies for routine carrier screening
Tests for a limited set of only common mutations
Provides limited utility beyond Caucasian and Jewish ethnicities
• Next-Generation Sequencing

Delivers higher accuracy across ethnicities

1 – Results based on analysis of 22,296 patients in IVF centers across the country screened for up to 14 disorders using GoodStart Select.
2 – Analysis was done by comparing the mutations found using GoodStart Select to competitors’ genotyping panels. If all competitors did not test
for a particular mutation, then it was marked as GSG only.
