About this study

Official title: Usefulness of GnRH Antagonist Administration in the Treatment of Early Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome

The aim of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of GnRh antagonist in the treatment of early ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.

Read the detailed description

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a serious complication of ovarian stimulation protocols. Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist administration in the luteal phase was recently proposed as a new approach for the management of patients with established severe OHSS We analyze the response of egg donors with moderate- severe early ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome after a GnRH antagonist stimulation protocol to the administration of a daily doses of GnRH antagonist (Cetrorelix 0.25) during 7 days after the second day of oocyte retrieval compared with placebo (saline solution).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing GnRH antagonist (Cetrorelix) in people with Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome and Effects of Gonadotropin, 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 6 inclusion and 2 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 19 Sep 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 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Ultrasound (time frame: one week). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Sep 2013.
