Genetic Marker for Recurrent Abortions

Detailed Technology Description: None

*Abstract: McGill University is seeking to out-license intellectual property relating to NLRP7 (NALP7) as a genetic marker for diagnosing a predisposition to poorly characterized reproductive conditions involving reproductive wastage, (e.g., various forms of recurrent fetal losses) including recurrent spontaneous abortions and molar pregnancies. Such a genetic test would also be useful for a patient population comprising women suffering from recurrent spontaneous abortion, stillbirths and normal pregnancies with intrauterine growth defect. For every 3,000,000 US births annually, at least 600,000 embryos or fetuses are spontaneously aborted.
