About this study

Official title: Effect of Local Injury to Endometrium on the Day of Oocyte Retrieval in First IVF Cycle on Implantation Rate.

Local injury on two sights of endometrium are performed in 60 patients in their first IVF cycle and implantation rate are compared with fresh cycles without local injury.

Read the detailed description

Low implantation rate is still a major concern in ART cycles. It has been reported that local injury to endometrium may improve endometrial receptivity and implantation rate. A total of 120 patients in first IVF cycles, who are stimulated with long protocol, are randomly divided into two groups. In one group, on the day of oocyte retrieval, local injury to endometrium with a Novak curet to anterior and posterior wall of endometrium are performed and in the other group no interventions are done. After fresh embryo transfers, implantation and clinical pregnancy rates are compared between two groups.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing local injury in people with Implantation Rate, run by Yazd Research & Clinical Center for Infertility at 1 site in Iran.

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

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Dec 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Iran. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

implantation rate (time frame: 4 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00846183, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 23 Dec 2013.
