About this study

Official title: Prospective and Randomized Study of the Impact of the Biopsy of 1-2 Cells in a PGD Program for Aneuploidy Screening

The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of the biopsy of one or two cells in a preimplantatation genetic diagnosis program (PGD) for the screening of aneuploidies. This prospective and randomized study will be performed at the Instituto Valenciano de Infertilidad in Valencia (Spain) in those patientes included in our clinical program. Our purpose is to optimize the methodology employed in our laboratory in order to guarantee optimal implantation and pregnancy rates without a detrimental effect on the accuracy and efficiency of the cytogenetic analysis. Patients will undergo and IVF cycle, embryo biopsy will be performed on day 3 embryos in two fashions: in some patients only one cell per embryo will be retrieved whereas in others, 2 cells will be retrieved in good morphology embryos and only 1 in the slowl ones. In all cases aneuploidy screening will be performed by FISH for chromosomes 13, 16, 18, 21, 22, X and Y. Embryo developmente will be checked every 24 hours and chormosomally normal embryos will be replaced into the uterus on day 5 of development.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Biopsy of Day 3 Embryo and · day embryo biopsy in people with Healthy, run by Instituto Valenciano de Infertilidad, IVI VALENCIA at 1 site in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

impact of biopsy (time frame: 8 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Mar 2011.
