Natera (NASDAQ: NTRA), a global leader in cell-free DNA and genetic testing, will present its latest research and data at the 28th International Conference on Prenatal Diagnosis and Therapy. The event, hosted by the International Society of Prenatal Diagnosis (ISPD), will take place from July 7-10, 2024, in Boston, MA. Key presentations include:
1. The evaluation of discordant sex between SNP-based NIPT and prenatal ultrasound related to congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia (Presenter: India Bradley, MS, CGC, July 8, 3:30 PM ET).
2. Insights from preimplantation genetic testing on chromosome segregation of human non-homologous Robertsonian translocations (Presenter: Peter Benn, DSc, July 8, 3:30 PM ET).
3. The accuracy of fetal fraction measurement in non-invasive prenatal screening for fetal aneuploidy using SNP-based methodology (Presenter: Peter Benn, DSc, July 9, 10:15 AM ET).
Natera will also host an Industry Symposium on July 9, 2024, at 1:00 PM ET, focusing on the future of non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT), featuring Medical Directors Samantha Leonard, MBBS, PhD, and Vivienne Souter, MD, MPH.
Sheetal Parmar, Natera's senior vice president of medical affairs for women's health, emphasized the significance of SNP-based NIPT and the company's contributions to preimplantation genetic testing.
Natera (NASDAQ: NTRA) has launched DECIPHER, a Phase II, single-arm trial using its Signatera™ test to guide treatment in gastroesophageal cancer patients. This study, the first to evaluate the HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugate for such patients, aims to enroll 25 participants from over 10 UK sites. Patients showing molecular residual disease (MRD) positivity after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery will receive investigational therapy for up to eight cycles instead of the standard adjuvant chemotherapy. Signatera will monitor MRD clearance, the primary endpoint. Previous data showed high disease progression risk for Signatera-positive patients post-standard treatment. DECIPHER aims to offer these patients a better chance at cure.
Natera (NASDAQ: NTRA) has launched an enhanced version of its Prospera Heart™ test, integrating a Donor Quantity Score (DQS) to better detect heart transplant rejection. Traditional dd-cfDNA tests only measure rejection risk based on the fraction of dd-cfDNA in the blood, potentially skewed by unrelated factors. DQS normalizes these readings, improving the accuracy of rejection detection for both acute cellular rejection (ACR) and antibody-mediated rejection (AMR).
In a study involving 703 plasma samples, the DQS-enhanced Prospera Heart test showed improved performance metrics: sensitivity increased from 80.0% to 88.2%, specificity from 76.1% to 84.2%, and negative predictive value (NPV) from 97.4% to 98.6%. Results were presented at The International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation’s annual meeting and will be submitted for peer-reviewed publication.
Natera (NASDAQ: NTRA), a leader in cell-free DNA and genetic testing, will present at the Goldman Sachs 45th Annual Global Healthcare Conference on June 10, 2024. The presentation is scheduled for 7:40 a.m. PT (10:40 a.m. ET) and can be accessed via a live webcast on Natera's investor relations website. A replay will also be available post-event.
Natera (NASDAQ: NTRA) will present new data on its Prospera donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) test at the American Transplant Congress (ATC) 2024 from June 1–5. The company will showcase 18 abstracts, including results from the ProActive study, the largest prospective dd-cfDNA study in kidney transplant recipients. Key findings highlight the Prospera Kidney test's efficacy in predicting organ rejection, with results demonstrating a high predictive value (AUC range: 92-96%). Additional data show significant variation in dd-cfDNA levels, suggesting its utility in ongoing surveillance and risk stratification for adverse outcomes.
Natera, a global leader in cell-free DNA and genetic testing, will present at the 2024 Leerink Partners Healthcare Crossroads Conference. The presentation is scheduled for Thursday, May 30, 2024, at 8:40 a.m. PT (11:40 a.m. ET). The event will be live-streamed on the investor relations section of Natera's website, with a replay available shortly after.
Natera (NASDAQ: NTRA) will present new data at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting, May 31 – June 4, 2024.

Natera's Signatera™ and Empower™ tests will be highlighted in one oral and 13 poster presentations. Key studies include the CIRCULATE-Japan GALAXY study, showcasing the prognostic and predictive utility of Signatera for CRC. Natera expects topline results from the ALTAIR phase III trial by August 2024. Presentations will demonstrate ctDNA's role in detecting minimal residual disease and monitoring treatment responses in various cancers.
