Patent number: 12260934Abstract: Provided herein are improved methods for detecting aneuploidy in a sample. The methods in certain embodiments are used for the analysis of circulating DNA in serum samples, such as circulating fetal DNA or circulating tumor DNA. In certain embodiments, chromosome or chromosome segments of interest are used to set a bias model and/or a control value for a z-score determination, in illustrative examples without the use of a control chromosome.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2019Date of Patent: March 25, 2025Assignee: Natera, Inc.Inventors: Styrmir Sigurjonsson, Naresh Vankayalapati, Allison Ryan, Zachary Demko, Milena Banjevic

Patent number: 12234509Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for determining the status of an allograft within a transplant recipient from genotypic data measured from a mixed sample of DNA comprising DNA from both the transplant recipient and from the donor. The mixed sample of DNA may be preferentially enriched at a plurality of polymorphic loci in a way that minimizes the allelic bias, for example using massively multiplexed targeted PCR.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2021Date of Patent: February 25, 2025Assignee: Natera, Inc.Inventors: Solomon Moshkevich, Bernhard Zimmermann, Tudor Pompiliu Constantin, Huseyin Eser Kirkizlar, Allison Ryan, Styrmir Sigurjonsson, Felipe Acosta Archila, Ryan Swenerton
