[title] => Application of PGT-M tests in Thalassemia genetic disorder screening
[description] => Thalassemia is a recessive inherited anemia disorder on the autosomal chromosome, with the highest incidence rates globally, including in Vietnam. Thalassemia causes severe consequences for the material and mental well-being of affected individuals and their families. Currently, there is no definitive cure for this disease, but proactive prevention and screening are possible. Notably, the advent of Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Monogenic Disorders (PGT-M) helps reduce the risk of having children affected by Thalassemia.
[content] => Thalassemia – A Recessive Genetic Disorder to Be Aware Of
Thalassemia (also known as congenital hemolysis) is the most common single-gene genetic disorder worldwide. According to reports from the Thalassemia Federation and WHO in 2008, approximately 7% of the global population carries the disease gene. For every 100 couples, about 1.1 couples are at risk of having a child with the disease or carrying the Thalassemia gene.
Dr. Le Thao Ly (Quang Ninh Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital) reported at the 2025 Clinical Embryology Conference.
In Vietnam, Thalassemia is the leading cause of severe anemia and hemolysis in children. According to the Vietnam Congenital Hemolysis Association, there are about 12 million carriers of the disease gene, and an estimated 20,000 patients need treatment each year.
Couples who carry the Thalassemia gene have a 50% chance of having a child who carries the gene and a 25% chance of having a child with the disease if they conceive naturally. Therefore, couples planning for pregnancy, especially those with a family history of Thalassemia, should take preventive measures for the future generation by undergoing screening for early detection and appropriate preventive actions using PGT-M.
PGT-M Testing Helps Thalassemia-Carrying Parents Have Healthy Children
According to Dr. Le Thao Ly (Quang Ninh Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital), who presented at the 6th CEC Conference, PGT-M (Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Monogenic Gene Disorders) was first reported in 1990 and was originally used to diagnose genetic disorders linked to the X chromosome. With this technique, we can examine the genetic makeup of embryos at a very early stage, identifying specific abnormal gene segments inherited from the parents.
As a result, embryos with the disease-causing gene are eliminated before being transferred to the mother's uterus. The effectiveness of this method has been proven to help reduce the incidence of children born with the disease and minimize the need for pregnancy termination.
PGT-M plays a crucial role in reproductive medicine but still presents some challenges.
PGT-M is a test that identifies single-gene abnormalities and mutations related to genetic syndromes such as Thalassemia, Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), Hemophilia, Rett Syndrome, Polycystic Kidney Disease, and others. It is recommended for couples carrying disease-causing gene mutations who are at high risk of having a child with a monogenic genetic disorder.
PGT-M is a highly accurate technique, requiring advanced technology such as SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) analysis, STR (Short Tandem Repeat) analysis, qPCR (real-time PCR), MLPA (Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification), or NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing), depending on the specific monogenic disorder to be analyzed. The goal is to detect gene mutations that the parents carry and can pass on to their child.
To perform PGT-M, couples typically need reproductive assistance through in vitro fertilization (IVF). Embryos created through IVF are cultured until day 5. Embryos at this stage (blastocysts) are biopsied, and 5-7 cells are extracted from the part of the embryo that will develop into the placenta. These cell samples undergo special tests to identify the disease-causing genes.
This test enables doctors to check the genetic makeup of the embryos at an early stage, allowing for the identification and removal of embryos carrying the parents' genetic disease. Only healthy embryos are transferred to the mother's uterus, increasing the chances of pregnancy and resulting in healthy children who do not carry genetic mutations for future generations.
To date, in addition to screening for Thalassemia PGT-M, GENTIS has also developed PGT-M techniques for over 100 rare genetic disorders, including Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Spinal Muscular Atrophy, Hemophilia, Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia, and more.
PGT-M Testing at GENTIS is Performed Using a Rigorous, Professional Process
Along with the application of new technologies and advanced machinery systems (Veriseq PGS technology, Illumina NGS DNA sequencing system from the USA, and SNP, STR analysis methods), PGT-M testing at GENTIS is carried out in a strict, professional manner to ensure highly reliable results. Combining PGT-M screening for monogenic genetic disorders with PGT-A/SR testing before PGT-M helps provide a comprehensive assessment of embryo quality, improving the success rate of assisted reproductive methods.

[title] => PGT-M for 100+ Rare Diseases: A Solution for Healthy Babies in Families Carrying Genetic Disorders
[description] => Rare diseases often lead to serious health complications and significantly affect a patient’s quality of life. Therefore, the development of PGT-M testing to screen and select embryos free of rare disease-causing genes for implantation is essential. In an effort to eliminate the fear of rare diseases from the community, GENTIS has researched and developed a PGT-M test capable of screening for over 100 rare diseases.
[content] => Rare Diseases – A Group That Demands Attention
Rare diseases are conditions that occur infrequently in the general population, usually caused by genetic mutations, and often have a severe impact on a patient’s health. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), a disease is considered rare when it affects fewer than 1 in 2,000 people. While each disease is rare individually, over 7,000 rare diseases have been identified, affecting approximately 300 million people worldwide.
These diseases are typically serious due to their complex nature and the lack of effective treatments. Many manifest severely from birth, leading to congenital defects, developmental delays, high mortality rates, or lifelong disabilities. Because of the low prevalence, developing treatments and diagnostics remains a major challenge, limiting access to care.
However, advancements in genetics, assisted reproduction, and prenatal diagnostics have expanded our ability to screen and manage rare diseases, offering hope for couples wanting to conceive and give birth to healthy children.
PGT-M for 100+ Rare Diseases: Bringing Hope to Families with Genetic Risks
In clinical practice and research, medical genetics plays an increasingly vital role. Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Monogenic Disorders (PGT-M), combined with assisted reproductive technologies, has brought joy to many infertile couples by allowing them to have healthy children and contribute to reducing the incidence of monogenic rare diseases in the community.
PGT-M is performed during in vitro fertilization (IVF) and is used to detect and select embryos free from disease-causing genetic mutations before embryo transfer into the uterus
GENTIS Utilizes Modern Technologies for PGT-M Testing
PGT-M plays a key role in screening and preventing rare diseases, especially in couples with a family history of genetic conditions. By ensuring that only embryos without the disease-causing gene are transferred, this test not only reduces the burden of genetic disease on families but also improves the overall health of future generations.
Applying PGT-M in assisted reproduction marks a significant breakthrough in medicine, offering hope and a path forward for couples who wish to have healthy children, while reducing the risk of passing on rare genetic diseases.
At GENTIS, PGT-M can detect over 100 rare diseases caused by gene mutations, helping minimize the risk of giving birth to a child with a severe genetic disorder.
A Highly Skilled Team at GENTIS
Outstanding Advantages of the PGT-M Test for 100+ Rare Diseases:
This specialized test not only brings hope to couples carrying genetic disorders but also offers multiple advantages for optimizing genetic screening right from the embryonic stage.
One of the most significant benefits of GENTIS’s PGT-M test is the ability to accurately analyze over 100 monogenic disorders, capable of detecting even subtle variations in DNA that may cause disease.
Using next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology combined with customized family-specific marker design, PGT-M ensures precise identification of healthy embryos, increasing the chances of a successful, healthy pregnancy.
Additionally, the PGT-M service for 100+ rare diseases is supported by a team of expert genetic counselors, who guide patients before, during, and after the testing process.

Expert-Led, Patient-Centered Genetic Counseling at GENTIS
Before testing, counselors help couples understand their genetic risks, explain disease mechanisms, and assess the necessity of the test. Throughout the testing process, experts closely monitor each stage to ensure result accuracy and appropriateness.
After results are available, the team continues to provide support by interpreting clinical implications, guiding couples in selecting the best embryos, and proposing tailored reproductive strategies if necessary.
Thus, PGT-M is more than a screening tool — it is a comprehensive solution, offering peace of mind to families at risk of transmitting genetic conditions.
According to Assoc. Prof. Dr. Francesca Spinella (Former Chair of the ESHRE PGT Consortium and Genetic Consultant at Eurofins GENTIS), PGT-M plays a vital role in the field of reproductive medicine. This test allows for the screening of monogenic disorders and ensures that only embryos without genetic mutations are transferred — bringing hope to couples struggling with infertility and genetic risks.

[content] =>PGT-M (Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Monogenic diseases) is a genetic screening test performed on embryos to identify and select embryos that do not carry disease-causing genetic mutations inherited from the parents. This test is typically recommended for couples who are carriers of mutations linked to genetic disorders and wish to prevent passing these conditions on to their children. As it is performed before embryo transfer, this early screening method helps avoid the risk of children being born with genetic diseases and reduces the need for pregnancy termination due to severe genetic abnormalities.
To ensure accuracy and compatibility with GENTIS' testing protocols, and to protect customer rights during the PGT-M testing process, we issue the following recommendations regarding the submission of genetic test results before performing PGT-M:
- In cases where genetic test results are provided from a family member affected by the condition (e.g., children, siblings, etc.), mutation confirmation in the couple intending to undergo PGT-M is MANDATORY.
- In cases where genetic test results are provided from the couple intending to undergo PGT-M:
- If the test was performed at GENTIS: The result is accepted for use in PGT-M, and GENTIS takes full responsibility for the accuracy of this result.
- If the test was performed at another laboratory: Sanger sequencing data must be provided, or it is recommended that mutation confirmation be redone at GENTIS.
Why does GENTIS require mutation confirmation in parents before performing PGT-M?
- Commitment to quality and medical responsibility: GENTIS is fully accountable for the results of tests it performs. We cannot guarantee the accuracy of tests conducted by third parties.
- The genetic test results directly impact the PGT-M process and its outcomes.
- Ensuring customer rights during PGT-M testing: Confirming the mutation in the couple allows doctors to make appropriate decisions regarding PGT-M, preventing scenarios where patients undergo an IVF cycle but cannot proceed with PGT-M due to inadequate testing.
Important Recommendation
If you are considering PGT-M testing, we strongly recommend that it be performed directly at GENTIS to ensure the highest level of accuracy, consistency, and compatibility with your treatment plan.

GENTIS HOTLINE: 1800 2010
Website: gentis.com.vn
Attending the seminar, on behalf of the IVF Center, the Post Office Hospital had the presence of Master. Doctor Bach Huy Anh (Deputy Director), Master. Doctor Chu Thi Huong, Doctor CKI. Kieu Duc Ty and doctors of the department. Representing GENTIS, there was the participation of Mr. Nguyen Quang Vinh (Director of Testing Center) and Mr. Nguyen Van Huynh (Leader of R&D).
Mr. Vinh and Mr. Huynh gave a detailed introduction to the two test packages PGT NEXT and PGT UPGRADE of GENTIS. Sharing with the doctors of the HTSS Center - Post Office Hospital, Mr. Huynh emphasized the technological breakthrough of both new PGT tests.
Accordingly, the PGT NEXT test is a test that can detect haploid/polyploid embryos. According to statistics during the research process at GENTIS: "Haploid/polyploid abnormalities occur in 1-3% of all pregnancies and triploidy accounts for 15-18% of miscarriages." Therefore, detecting haploid/polyploid embryos is highly significant in increasing the success rate of IVF.
In addition, PGT NEXT also supports and complements PGT-A/SR, helping to detect polyploid embryos and identify embryos with normal diploid chromosome sets, even in abnormally fertilized embryos (e.g., 0PN, 1PN, or 2.1/3PN).
This test can be extended to patients with a history of polyploidy, molar pregnancy, and miscarriage after IVF combined with traditional PGT-A, increasing the number of embryos that can be transferred from abnormally fertilized zygotes (0PN, 1PN, or 2.1/3PN). The implementation process combines whole genome sequencing NGS (Low-pass sequencing) with targeted SNP sequencing to detect polyploidy.
For PGT UPGRADE, this is a test to detect embryos carrying balanced translocations. "Balanced translocation is the phenomenon of exchanging DNA segments between non-homologous chromosomes without increasing or decreasing genetic material at the breakpoints. In balanced translocation, there are also two types: Reciprocal translocation and Robertsonian translocation."
The PGT UPGRADE test is indicated for couples with a history of recurrent miscarriage, a family history of chromosomal abnormalities, or spouses carrying balanced translocations who do not want to pass them on to the next generation. The implementation process combines whole genome sequencing NGS (Low-pass sequencing) with targeted SNP sequencing to detect embryos carrying balanced translocations.
The outstanding advantage of the PGT NEXT and PGT UPGRADE tests is the use of specialized bioinformatics software optimized specifically for the Vietnamese population. Therefore, these two tests not only help detect genetic abnormalities but also help reduce the risk of miscarriage, increase the success rate of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and help select healthy embryos to be placed in the uterus.
At the end of the presentation, doctors at the Post Office Hospital asked many questions about PGT NEXT and PGT UPGRADE, specifically: "Is 18% of the total number of embryos the proportion of euploid embryos carrying balanced translocations?", "With this new technology, is the cost of performing PGT UPGRADE much higher than the cost of performing PGT-A?". Thanks to the detailed answers of the GENTIS representative, the doctors had a clearer view and could visualize the future development of the PGT NEXT and PGT UPGRADE tests.
The seminar took place in a very exciting atmosphere and received a lot of attention and positive feedback from the participating doctors. Master, Doctor Bach Huy Anh shared: "Thank you GENTIS for coming to our hospital today and updating new products that are extremely meaningful and highly practical. For me personally, the PGT UPGRADE test has a high humanitarian significance, helping couples with balanced translocation genes prevent the possibility of passing it on to future generations. I believe that in the future, these two tests will greatly support infertile couples with multiple miscarriages, helping them reach their dream of becoming parents."

GENTIS Genetic Testing Service Joint Stock Company is honored to be a sponsor of the conference.
The 6th CEC is a specialized conference on clinical embryology and new technical and technological applications in assisted reproduction. This year's conference will update knowledge, technical trends, technology, and new protocols in assisted reproductive techniques.
At the exhibition booth at the conference, GENTIS will focus on introducing solutions in genetic screening and diagnosis in the field of assisted reproduction, especially 2 new PGT test packages: PGT NEXT and PGT UPGRADE
PGT UPGRADE
PGT UPGRADE is a pre-implantation genetic analysis test that can detect aneuploidy on 24 chromosomes, additional abnormalities, chromosomal deletions with a size of over 5 Mb, especially capable of detecting embryos carrying balanced translocations inherited from the parents. Chromosomal translocations are structural abnormalities of chromosomes caused by the rearrangement of large segments between non-homologous chromosomes. There are two types of translocations: balanced (no loss of genetic material) and unbalanced (loss or extra genetic material, such as aneuploidy). When both the father and mother carry balanced translocations, approximately 60% of gametes will carry unbalanced translocations, leading to embryos with chromosomal abnormalities. This is also a common cause of repeated implantation failure, recurrent miscarriage, and birth defects. PGT UPGRADE test helps to select euploid embryos for parents carrying balanced translocations to increase the chance of having a healthy baby. In addition, PGT UPGRADE also supports providing genetic information for the embryo selection process before embryo transfer.
Performing PGTest testing can select genetically good quality embryos to increase the chance of pregnancy when performing in vitro fertilization (IVF), helping to increase the chance of the child being born healthy, without the screened genetic abnormalities.
Detection range:
- Aneuploidy of all 24 chromosomes.
- Chromosome structural abnormalities (addition, deletion) with a size of over 5 Mb.
- Detecting embryos carrying balanced genetic translocations from parents.
Method: Next-generation sequencing NGS (Illumina) and analyzing sequencing results using specialized bioinformatics software.
Samples used:
- Parental samples (2-3 ml whole blood in EDTA anticoagulant tube) and balanced translocation test results.
- Embryo biopsy sample on day 5.
Time to return results: 12 – 14 days.
PGT NEXT
PGT NEXT is a pre-implantation genetic analysis test that can detect aneuploidy on 24 chromosomes, chromosomal abnormalities, and chromosomal deletions. It can also detect embryos with polyploidy or haploidy. This helps avoid transferring polyploid/haploidy abnormal embryos, and avoid wasting euploid embryos with fertilization abnormalities (0PN, 1PN, and 2.1/3PN). In addition, the PGT UPGRADE test also supports the provision of genetic information for embryo selection before embryo transfer. The combination of NGS whole genome sequencing with SNP analysis improves the resolution of genetic screening for polyploidy.This method allows for the identification of haploid and polyploid chromosome sets, increasing the number of healthy euploid embryos available for transfer by accurately detecting true diploid embryos among abnormally fertilized embryos (0PN, 1PN, 2.1PN, 3PN). Additionally, SNP analysis ensures precise identification of whether the tested embryo is genetically related to other embryos in the same cohort, thereby reducing the risk of sample mix-ups due to procedural or handling errors.
Detection range:
- Aneuploidy of all 24 chromosomes.
- Chromosomal structural abnormalities (addition, deletion).
- Detection of embryos with polyploidy or haploidy.
Method: Whole genome sequencing and sequencing of target markers on the next generation sequencing machine NGS.
Samples used: Embryo biopsy sample on day 5.
Time to return results: 3 – 4 weeks.

At the seminar, GENTIS representatives discussed and answered questions from doctors at Phu Tho Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital about these new genetic test packages. [content] =>Attending the seminar, on behalf of the Center for Reproductive Support, Phu Tho Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital, there was the presence of Dr. Doan Trung Kien (Director), Dr. Nguyen Thi Mai (Deputy Director), Dr. Le Ngoc Tue Nhi (Head of IVF Lab) and doctors of the department. Representing GENTIS, there were Mr. Nguyen Van Huynh (Head of R&D Group) and Dr. Vu Thu Huong.
At the seminar, Dr. Vu Thu Huong gave a detailed presentation on FISH, the process, principles and values that this test brings. In addition, Mr. Nguyen Van Huynh also introduced and presented in detail about the two PGT NEXT and PGT UPGRADE test packages of GENTIS. One of the highlights of the seminar was the discussion about the benefits and technology applied to the two newly launched PGT products of GENTIS. According to Mr. Nguyen Van Huynh, thanks to the use of specialized bioinformatics software optimized for the Vietnamese population, this test not only helps detect genetic abnormalities but also helps reduce the risk of miscarriage, increase the success rate of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and help select healthy embryos to place in the uterus.
PGT testing helps couples avoid difficult situations, such as facing an unhealthy pregnancy or the risk of giving birth to a child with a serious genetic disease. Especially for older couples or couples with a history of genetic disease, PGT is an effective solution, helping to screen and select healthy embryos, thereby increasing the chance of having a safe and healthy child.
During the seminar, doctors at Phu Tho Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital asked many questions about FISH testing as well as PGT NEXT and PGT UPGRADE: "Can embryonic cells after FISH be used for other tests?", "The time to return results of PGT NEXT seems a bit long, can it be reduced in the future?". Accordingly, Mr. Nguyen Van Huynh and Dr. Vu Thu Huong gave extremely detailed answers, delving into the issues that doctors were still wondering about. This provided doctors with a clearer understanding of the future development of FISH, PGT NEXT and PGT UPGRADE tests at GENTIS.
The seminar took place in an engaging and dynamic atmosphere and received a lot of attention and positive feedback from the participating doctors. Dr. Doan Xuan Kien said: "I am very grateful and appreciate the presence of GENTIS today, thank you for organizing such a meaningful and practical seminar, helping doctors to update new knowledge about FISH testing, as well as better understand the breakthrough and necessity of applying PGT NEXT, PGT UPGRADE in pre-embryo genetic testing technology. These tests are not only a great step forward in medicine but also bring a new ray of hope to couples on the journey to find their beloved children".
Hopefully after the seminar, GENTIS and Phu Tho Maternity and Pediatrics Hospital will have more opportunities to cooperate for the development of both units!
