About this study

Official title: Autograft of Human Ovarian Tissue: Efficiency and Safety Evaluation

Ovarian tissue cryopreservation is a new technique for female fertility preservation. One way to restore fertility is autotransplantation of ovarian tissue.

The principal purpose of this study will be to evaluate the efficiency and safety of this procedure.

Read the detailed description

Ovarian tissue cryopreservation is a new technique for female fertility preservation before gonadotoxic treatments. The first ovarian tissue cryopreservations were performed 10 years ago. There are two main methods to use frozen ovarian cortex: autograft of ovarian fragments and in vitro follicular growth. At the present time, none mature oocytes were obtained after culture. Since 2000, around twenty publications stating autografts of ovarian cortex reported 8 pregnancy and 6 life birth of healthy babies.

Since 1998 until 2008, in the unit of reproduction biology of pitie-salpetriere hospital in Paris, France, 330 patients have had an ovarian tissue cryopreservation for fertility preservation before gonadotoxic treatment. Among them, at the present time, 180 have a procreative age and in consequence, could ask for the use of their ovarian cortex.

The general aim of this protocol will be to propose to women wishing to have a baby, an ovarian tissue transplantation if the patients have an premature ovarian failure.

The principal aim of this study will be to evaluate the efficiency and the safety of ovarian transplantation.

Before grafting, the absence of contra- indication will be check. An informed consent will be signed by the patient. Autograft of ovarian cortex will be performed either in orthotopic or in heterotopic localization according to the pathology and a possible contra-indication to orthotopic position.

After graft, each month hormonal assessment, ovarian echography and, after 3 months, an MRI, will be performed.

Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) will be performed in case of heterotopic graft and if necessary in case of orthotopic graft.

The efficiency of ovarian tissue autograft will be appreciated by the delay before the recovery of the ovarian function, the oocyte and embryos qualities in case of ART.

Finally, the number of pregnancies and live births will be also appreciated as well as a possible recurrence of the pathology.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Biological (FSH, LH, E2 and AMH) changes from graft until the revovery of ovarian function

    FSH, LH, E2 and AMH follow up every month after graft until the recovery of ovarian function, up to 18 months

    Measured: every month after graft, up to 18 months

  2. Radiological (ultrasonography and MRI) changes in ovarian imaging from graft until the revovery of ovarian function

    Radiological (only ultrasonography the first 3 months and after ultrasonography and MRI) follow up every month after graft until the recovery of ovarian function, up to 18 months

    Measured: every month after graft, up to 18 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Graft vascularization

    Measured: every month up to 18 months

  2. Relapse of the pathology

    Measured: every month up to 18 months

  3. Delay and quality of the ovarian function recovery between ortho and heterotopic graft

    Measured: after ovarian function recovery, up to 18 months

  4. Number of ovarian fragments necessary for ovarian function recovery

    Measured: up to 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing orthotopic graft and heterotopic graft in people with Ovarian Tissue Transplantation, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 7 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Nov 2017. 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 France. 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?

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

Contact Poirot Catherine, MD, PhD (+33 1 56 01 78 00, Catherine.poirot@tnn.aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Biological (FSH, LH, E2 and AMH) changes from graft until the revovery of ovarian function (time frame: every month after graft, up to 18 months). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02184806, which also lists 2 linked publications.
